The Southern League is short on top flight talent this season. Of the eight Southern League prospects ranked in the HQ100, I've scouted four. I covered Brewers outfielder Brett Phillips (#34 on the HQ100), Braves shortstop Ozhainio Albies (#38 on the HQ100) and Cubs outfielder Billy McKinney (#65 on the HQ100) last season and knocked out a scouting report on Rays shortstop Willy Adames (#48 on the HQ100) just last week.
