Medeiros doesn't shock me one bit, I don't think this kid has the stuff to be a major league pitcher. I don't understand why he went first round, I would have had him in the 3rd to 5th round. Gatewood is a surprise, I would have thought he was top 5 at least.

No Medeiros or Gatewood. ?

Does this push Barreto up to number one for the A's now? I'm guessing they all just get bumped up one spot with the removal of Robertson, but then who is the number ten guy for Oakland?

Also, with Travis going to Toronto, do the Tigers and Blue Jays have updated lists?

I'd love to see the top 30 for each team.

Yes, Barreto is now the A's #1 now.

I recommend you pre-order the Handbook to see their other revised lists. Ships late this month.

Freeland higher than Butler? I would think Herrera would be higher too.

With Tyler Anderson's results, you'd think he would have cracked the top 10, no? He had an outstanding year at AA: 1.98 ERA in 23 starts, 118 IP.

Trevor Story must be in the top 15, right?
