J.P., where do you think Lazarito would rank on this list? Did he simply not make it or does BA not factor in Cuban born players? All reports indicate this kid is legit.

He's one of my chat questions, which takes place tomorrow.

Sounds good. Now that I've officially became a premium member I'll try and join in. Work might be crazy, though.

They really are stacked with pitching talent now.

It really is, the dodgers have gotta be kicking themselves giving up so much for Hill and Reddick.

Well, if you wanted to know about his ranking you came to the right chat. The BA staffer didn't answer my question about him, but answered about five almost-identically worded ones about him. Weird goings-on in there.

J.P.

Yeah man. I've been following it. They've said he was "really raw" which seemed to be the reason. What 17 year old prospect isn't? It's quite a bogus reasoning IMO.

My question was answered on Dakota Chalmers:



John (NJ): How far was Dakota Chalmers from the top 10? He seems to have a ton of upside. Thanks!

Vincent Lara-Cinisomo: He's another 11-20 guy; Talented but inconsistent; very introspective, sometimes to his detriment.

Yohander Mendez shot up that list!

FYI, this concludes the A.L. lists. I believe the Braves kick off the N.L. next week. VERY curious to see that one.

Good lord...that system is stacked. It's comforting to see Soroka at number four. I saw him throw against Lakewood in the Sally League playoffs and he absolutely dominated.

J.P., which Braves prospect would you rank 11th? Touki? Wentz, Muller, Riley, could make strong cases.

Touki for me. Surprised he missed. Followed by Wentz, Pache, Riley, Sims and Muller.
