BP Annual Player Comments

Year		Comment
2012		Once again, this former 15th-round 2003 pick bounced around the infield and outfield corners, showed a massive home/road split at Triple-A, and struggled during his brief stints in the majors. Called up in September, Mitchell caught bullpen sessions with an eye toward further work behind the plate in the Arizona Fall League, though offseason surgery on his left wrist shifted that plan to the Venezuelan Winter League. At the very least, the ability to serve as an emergency catcher could broaden his appeal in a bench role.
2011		A 15th-round pick in 2003 out of Cartersville, Georgia, Mitchell rebounded from a couple of subpar years at Double-A and rode some park-driven success at Albuquerque (.355/.395/.622 at home, .272/.330/.440 elsewhere) to a spot on the All-Pacific Coast League team and a September cup of coffee in Los Angeles. With the help of Albuquerque hitting coach John Moses, he moved away from his pull-hitting tendency to use more of the field, and added the outfield corners to a repertoire that includes second base as well as first and third. He could compete for a utility role in spring training.
2009		Russell Mitchell has some pop and made solid advances in his plate discipline at Jacksonville, but he's still short of good enough to hit at a premium position.
