The Quakes' roster will feature three players which Baseball America ranks among their "Top-30 Prospects". 20-year old right-hander Tyler Chatwood, ranked as the #14 prospect within the Angels' system, will be part of the five-man rotation. He'll be joined by fellow 20-year old, left-hander Will Smith, who is rated #15.
