Which team has the best system in the minors and why?

This should be good poll question choose a team and explain. Assume the guys drafted recently are in the teams system.

If i left someone out add them.
thanks

I went Rays based on two players only...Desmond Jennings and Jeremy Hellickson.

I don't know if there are any other clubs that have one truly MLB ready outfielder and one possible #2 MLB starter just waiting in AAA for someone to get hurt.

The depth of the Mariners system is INSANE. Double-A has about a dozen guys who should be big leaguers. High-A has guys down there just because there is no room in Double-A. Nick Franklin leads a host of prospects in Low-A.

I agree the mariners are way at the top. They have some elite talent and have made huge strides since the start of the season imo.

they just need catching prospects now and theyre set. hopefully the cliff lee trade will make the system complete

Braves have the vbest pitching depth in the minors.

And we have Freddie Freeman, Cody Johnson, Edwardo Salciado, and Jordan Schafer (yes I do believe he still has the potential to be a solid player one day)

Obviously I'm a bit biased, but I think you can put together a very solid team with the M's...the biggest issue though (other than catcher) is that outside Mangini, I don't think there's much in Triple-A. Halman's there, but he seriously needs to get the average up and cut down on the strikeouts.

They could have a huge infield in a few years though with Poythress, Ackley, Franklin and Raben/Liddi...

I'd love to see Pineda and Hensley get the call up to Triple-A and see what they're able to do there.

yeah, there should be an all- Ms thread to talk about this stuff..
interesting to see everyone opinion on what moves need to be made. we have a lot of pieces to work with right now.

Pitching? Rays (Helly, McGee, Barnese, Lobstein, Colome, Moore [not so much this year though]) or Braves (Minor, Teheran, Vizcaino, Delgado, Lopez)
Hitting? Red Sox (Rizzo, Anderson, Reddick, Iglesias, Fuentes, etc.)
