I do like that he's rational about the Yankees' 2013 and outlook. A year ago they were #10 on his list and mainly injuries, not lack of talent, caused the fall.

phillies in the top half and in my mind should be well into the top 10 after this year...

 

[TwinGnats]

Two top 5 prospects for the Twins makes their ranking easy to figure.

Maybe if all of Milwaukee's talent wasn't A+ or lower, there'd be more optimism. I disagree with his assessment of Jimmy Nelson. Who does LA have that puts them above Milwaukee? We actually have 2 of their power arms from 2 years ago.
