Will Smith ranked first on the 2008 FutureAngels.com Top 10 Prospects report. He was 8-2 with a 3.08 ERA. In 73 innings, Will struck out 76 and walked only six, an incredible start to his career.
Ryan Chaffee was selected in the third round, but didn’t pitch in 2008 due to a broken foot suffered earler in the year. Angels scout Tom Kotchman describes him as “a combination of John Lackey, El Duque and Mark Fidrych.” Ryan ranked sixth on the 2008 FutureAngels.com Top 10 Prospects list.
