It's Officially Top 100 Prospect List Season (So Here's Mine)

[WCTYSON]

Who has the potential to make the biggest jump on this list as the season progresses? Austin Meadows and David Dahl come to mind for me.

I like your Dahl pick and would like to add Barreto to that.

Thanks for the list J.P.

Why so low on Alex Meyer? and why so high on C.J. Edwards?

I'm guessing Meyer's age has to play a role, and he didn't exactly dominate last year like many had hoped (myself included since I've been high on him since the Twins acquired him)

Meyer's delivery needs to be more consistent; his control wavers as a result.

Edwards has great life on his FB, and above-average secondary stuff. (I believe he's given up only two HRs in his career thus far). When he's healthy he could be a future #2 SP, IMO. Just needs to be durable, and eat more.

1) Bird has the power to succeed, and as you saw, was an honorable mention. Above-average power, although his other tools aren't quite as impressive.

2) Relievers rarely make my lists (same with others').

3) See #86 .

86 wasn't part of the spree this year I believe.

Thanks for the nice list. Wish there were more Phillies on it. Hopefully, J.P. will pan out for them. Go Phillies!

Nice list Jaypers, thanks for sharing.

I'm surprised that Nick Gordon didn't make your list.

After his strong AFL performance Rosario make your top "125" so to speak.. how about Alen Hanson?

What are the chances James Taillon see Pittsburgh this year?

Who has the potential to make the biggest jump on this list as the season progresses? Austin Meadows and David Dahl come to mind for me.

Urias, R.Castillo, Winker, Meadows, and Devers-- five that pop out to me to be in your "potential to make the biggest jump" group. Possibly Ed.Rod if he keeps it up.

 

[Lars]

Why Alfaro at 100? Seems like he maybe the best catching prospect [who can actually catch] in the minors.

That honor goes to Swihart. As for Alfaro, his pitch recognition needs work, as do his receiving skills. He committed 23 passed balls in 90 games.

Thanks for sharing your list JP.

How close was Chance Sisco to cracking your top 100? How does his defensive game stack up against other prospects?

 

[CatdaddysCards]

Solid list JP. Hoping the oter guys are as high on the Royals farm, as you appear.

Some gutsy placement on some of those guys. Kudos, and I agree. Especially like seeing Oswaldo Arcia on there. That's a kid I've snagged in dynasty leagues, two years ago.

One question: where do you have Miguel Almonte? I realize our farm is loaded with high quality arms, but something tells me he could be one of the top 3, by the end of this season. He just needs to harness the control a bit.

He wasn't particularly close. No plus tools. Solid catcher, though.

I listed Orlando Arcia - Oswaldo's younger brother.

Almonte would probably be in the 111-115 range.

Orlando is who I meant to type :-/
