Now up on the FCB Blog


Thanks JP!

I sent a copy of this to the Bowman team. I'm making sure they know who among these names haven't had Chrome autos yet, in case they didn't already.

Hopefully they'll listen.

It's nice to finally have a system again where these ranking don't amount to finding guys that "might as well" be where they are ranked. You actually have to do some work because the Top 5 in Milwaukee take some thinking about.

Living 15 minutes from miller park, its great when the brewers are a good team. that stadium is so much fun!

Arcia is so underrated right now. Kid is legit

The Bowman Team has asked me to compile a top 100 prospects list again, which will become their top 100 insert set in 2016 Bowman.

I did this last year as well, for 2015 Bowman.

Better get started.

Wait a second...you're telling me that your Top 100 list is what Bowman uses for their Top 100? That's pretty darn cool. You should get some credit though.

Was your twitter pack compensation for this work? You really ought to demand something for that effort. Are you doing the Org Top 5's for the Farm's Finest Insert too?

No - all three of us Bowman scouts received a pack, not just me. And no, I have nothing to do with that set.

(FYI, you can see me opening that pack below.)

Yes, I caught that video. Feel free to send me that top card just for being a nice guy if you want.

With the Eddy Julio Martinez deal falling through for SF and Theo swooping down and getting him, he will rank 9th on the Cubs list.

Tim - please check your email.
