Upon return from a two-week vacation, what does a man do?
Clean his closet, of course.
Only I would find an old BA mag jammed in between two shirts that needed to go to the Salvation Army long ago.
2006 Top Prospect? Delmon Young. 49 places ahead of Ryan Braun.
Without further ado, here are a few tidbits from the Top 100 issue of 2006.
Top Ten:
1. Delmon Young
2. Justin Upton
3. Brandon Wood
4. Jeremy Hermida
5. Stephen Drew
6. Francisco Liriano
7. Chad Billingsley
8. Justin Verlander
9. Lastings Milledge
10. Matt Cain
Nos. 91-100:
91. Glen Perkins
92. Ryan Sweeney
93. Anthony Lerew
94. Ronny Cedeno
95. Tom Gorzelanny
96. Matt Kemp
97. Chris Volstad
98. Chuck James
99. Nolan Reimold
100. Anthony Swarzak
Select Notables (bright side):
89. Andre Ethier
87. Rickey Romero
78. Kendry Morales
77. Dustin Pedroia
76. Jay Bruce
70. Jeff Neimann
63. Jon Broxton
61. Elvis Andrus
57. Jered Weaver
56. Edinson Volquez
42. Russell Martin
37. Jon Papelbon
30. Hanley Ramirez
Other Notables:
Prince Fielder ranked #11.
Nick Adenhardt ranked #90.
Alex Gordon and Andy Marte ranked nos. 13 & 14, respectively.
Carlos Quentin ranked #20.
Joel Guzman ranked #26 (23 spots ahead of Braun).
Craziest Ranking in History: #68 Cole Hamels
So a recent World Series MVP ranked #68 just three years ago. A recent AL MVP ranked #77 just three years ago. Andy Marte ranked 16 spots ahead of Hanley Ramirez, and all those studs ranked behind Delmon Young.
So don't get too upset about where your favorite prospects rank, or whether or not they make the hot sheet.
Apologize for any typos.
