Carlos Martinez looks like a close miss.

Glad I added some Teheran recently, crossing my fingers that the BC Blue Ref Auto at BGS comes back a 9.5. And glad I have him and Taillon on my fantasy minors squad. Eat THAT Duchscherer-lover!!! Hahaha

You have to wonder, how much can you trust a list that refers to Machado as "the first high school player taken in the 2010 First-Year Player Draft"???

I take Mayo will a grain of salt. I am thinking he meant to say " first position player".

But wasn't it: 1. Harper 2. Taillon 3. Machado? All high schoolers, with Harper being the first position player?

Harper played at a JUCO I believe

Harper was drafted out of college, so he wasn't a HS player. He was HS age appropriate, but not in HS.

That Baez guy is pretty good

MLB.com's top 10 third basemen.

If future position plays a part, then having Sano and Rendon on this list is a joke.

Also, I'm not sure how Flores makes this list while Cuthbert doesn't.

Tomorrow - catchers.

Teheran!!!

Regarding the 3B list...I don't see how Borchering can go from 6th last year to unranked this year despite hitting better at a higher level. 24 HR/92 RBI pretty solid for a 20 year old in Cal League IMO.

It's a good question. Regardless of the excuse given, maybe the next questions should be: "why was he ranked so high last year then?" But he's a solid prospect regardless. Maybe he's at 11?

I got to thinking, maybe it was because of his propencity for the strikeout....then again it's not like that's an issue that just came up in 2011. He's been a swing and miss guy his whole short career. I guess my bigger question was what did they see about his 24/92/.270 standard line that made them cut bait with him as far as top 10 lists go. His defense maybe? Ahh well, it doesn't really matter.

He is now an outfielder.
