The shoulder problems are worrisome, and since he's been injured there have been a number of rumors going around that his conditioning and work ethic have been poor, and that he's pretty much a 1B from here out. While there's only so much you can do with the anecdotal stuff, there are a few hot Latin American prospects that were sidelined through most of the past two seasons, like right-hander Francisco Valdivia and outfielder Julio Morban, and neither of them have had any questions come up about their athleticism. I'm hoping that deJesus is every bit as good as BaseballHQ seems to think, but this is a report that's coming after a year of him riding the pine and an unimpressive tour of Pulaski a season prior. At this point, I'd settle for a healthy season from him. Shoulder injuries can ruin a prospect, pitcher or hitter.
