No Orioles, Marlins, Angels or Mariners on that list, so I'm guessing there won't be any in the first 50, either.

Notable omissions from this list. (Again, I'm betting none of these guys will be in #s 1-50.)

Chance Cisco
Dylan Bundy
Hunter Harvey
Alex Jackson
Archie Bradley
Byung Ho Park
Duane Underwood
Frankie Montas
Garrett Whitley
James Kaprielian
Jameson Taillon
Jorge Alfaro
Josh Naylor
Kyle Freeland
Tyler Kolek
Mark Appel
Matt Chapman
Reese McGuire
Tim Cooney
Spencer Adams

JP Crawford will be top 5 and then maybe Nick Williams will be up in the top 50?

Well this is different than their top 10 organizational prospect list because they had Allard ahead of Albies but this one has Albies ahead of Allard. 5 Braves on this one and Newcomb/Swanson will be on the top 1-50 so 7 Braves like on Keith Law's rankings...just not as high.

Their top 10 org lists were compiled some time ago. Things change in the meantime, especially the number of execs/scouts/officials the BA staffers talk to.

I guess they have Bundy pegged for a relief role from now on. I know KLAW doesn't rank reliever prospects. Given the trade price of bullpen help(especially during a playoff push), it doesn't make much sense.

Yeah, I just thought they were planning on using those top 10 organizational listings for when the top 100 was going to be released. I'm speaking of the rankings that they were listing a new team every few days starting in December.

How about Trent Clark?

I'm confident he'll be in the top 50.

Crazy as Lopez is ranked higher than Clark, and is on the sub 50 list. Phillips is above Lopez as well, but lower than Clark on the Brewers top 10

Hopefully Clark will find his way on the top 50 but I haven't seen any other lists with him ranked that high. I got some decent coin invested in him.

Here we go. Now on the MLB Network.
