was this already on board?

any thoughts?

4 Phillies in top 50!

As an amateur prospector, I can't help but ask why Desmond Jennings is #3, without Feliz in the top 5; Heyward at #4, and Carlos Santana not in the top 10?

Man, some of their ratings are way off; I saw Jarrod Parker in the top 30, really? After TJS?

I think he is trying to go safe with the players with limited experience,

look at the matzek's ranking.

The more I look at this list, the more I scratch my head. I'm starting to dig through the skin by the way.

My biggest gripe would be Jacob Turner at 90 and Matzek at 94. . Although I don't agree with Mitchell in the 90's, I have a hard time puting him in the top half of the list. Even though I was a huge fan of Andrew Oliver in college, he is not a top 50 prospect. Anthony Gose at 46? Maybe 146. Mike Minor is a borderline top 100 prospect. No Danny Duffy. Matt Moore is a top 50 prospect at the bare minimum. He's not even on this list. No Kyle Gibson. No Jason Knapp. This just isn't a very good list.

I can't believe I even clicked on this list. It took me three selections to see Aumont in the last 20's to close the page.

Not the best list overall but there are some serious head scratchers like Phillippe Aumont and Austin Jackson among others.

Montgomery is in the top 40 but Duffy isn't on the list? They are basically the same player but duffy has an extra pitch.

The list is comical - matzek's rating is a farce as is austin jackson and aumont. Honestly I was a little disgusted by the Jarrod Parking rating as his injury is a very serious one for prospects. Friedrich is in the top 15 and Matzek is in the 90 range? Not to mention Friedrich is above Bumgarner despite worse production at a lower level. Also maybe its just me but Derek Norris above Aroldis and Tate? and Westmoreland? Are you really going to tell me if you're drafting minor leaguers he goes first out of that foursome?

It just gets worse - Morrison out of the top 50 behind a couple of phillies outfielders? This is also among the lowest I've seen Wil Myers.

agreed. And heyward not in the top 3 is pretty harsh as well.

One or two spots off doesn't bother me as much as seeing guys 50+ spots off.

Yet another list posted from someone trying to garner debate & attention, basically it's the: "I'll throw out something so ludicrous that I'll have them telling thier friend's about my blog/site"- phenomenon. ::facepalm:: :lol:
