Just thought I would post this and try to get some chatter going on.. Was wondering who everyone thought would make the top 100 BA prospect list from their team....
Here goes for the Blue Jays, in the order I think they will appear...
Mike Moustakas
David Huff
Aaron Poreda
JP Arencibia
Bryan Anderson
JA Happ
Neftali Soto
I also think Will Inman has an outside shot....
So 8 possible guys, plus I think whoever I get with my first rounder at the 9 pick has a chance of being there...
What does everyone else think?...

I think that anyone beyond Arencibia has no chance. Could be tagged on the outside of a top 100 list, but Anderson, Happ, and Inman aren't really BA guys. In fact off of that list the only guys I would bet very much on would be Moose and Poreda, but then again I didn't follow the entire minor leagues as closely this year as in years past.
From the Phillies I will guess:
Colby Rasmus
Tommy Hanson
Neftali Feliz
Pick Number 4
Ben Revere
and maybe Michael Main...I think he deserves it, but have seen him snubbed in some places.

I disagree.. I would be surprised if JA Happ and Bryan Anderson dont make it... I can see Neftali Soto just missing out, but am thinking he will be somewhere around 95...
I would be very shocked if I dont have 6 guys on the list...

James McDonald - about to be traded
Daniel Cortes
Juan Miranda?
Nick Barnese (loooong shot)
Definitely quantity over quality for the M's

Barnese has a much better shot than Miranda . . .

The White Sox have:
Jarrod Parker
Austin Jackson
Kila Kaaihue

Andrew Lambo
Vince Mazzaro

The Indians will have all one of the following:
Brett Cecil
And that's why I don't want to trade him. It's all I've got.

Andrew Lambo is so underrated. Dude can hit for avg., take walks, hit bombs, plays good D at 1B and in the OF......just because he smoked a little weed in HS everyone has him on their shit list. He was right up there with Vitters as the best player in CA during his junior year

Rick Porcello
Wade Davis
Jose Tabata (raked after the trade, still toolsy as all getout)
Jake McGee (knowing BA, I doubt TJ will hurt him that much)
Josh Donaldson (also dominated after being traded. one of the best catchers after Wieters)
Reid Brignac (scouts still seem to love him, I'm not sure why TBH; I would put him much lower personally)
Cedric Hunter
Hector Rondon (thanks for the tip Dave!)
Jess Todd
Here's all the guys I think have a shot, ordered as I think they might be. Some are more obvious than others, and I left a few more questionable ones off this list completely.

I'm starting to think that Main will make it. As with Derek Holland (and a lot of players) BA seemed like the last people to find out that Main has really improved of late, but I've started to see comments in chats from Callis, etc. that make me think he'll be on there when the spring comes. There are several Rangers "insiders" who think that he very well could be their best prospect right now, so I think it's safe to say that the Rangers and folks around them think he is very deserving, with respect to some of their other guys who will make it. I've had guys who get to talk with their pitching coordinator tell me that he's telling people that Main is the best HS pitcher he's ever worked with and the best one they have, and he is a long time Braves guy. |

I highly doubt Happ will make it. He's a back end starter whose been good every other year in the minors.
Still remember that I gave him away for free since I made an admin error last offseason. That's why you should trade me Murphy.

I am going to claim a victory in the Huff debate today.
1. Carlos Santana, c
2. Matt LaPorta, of
3. Nick Weglarz, of
4. Adam Miller, rhp
5. Beau Mills, 1b
6. Lonnie Chisenhall, ss
7. Kelvin de la Cruz, lhp
8. David Huff, lhp
9. Michael Brantley, of/1b
10. Carlos Rivero, ss
There is no way that 8 Indians make the top 100.

Looking back...I guess I didn't have the Huff debate in this thread, it was in a separate conversation about the thread where I said I doubt that even Huff would make it. It is nothing against the BCMBL Blue jays, just that I hate the MLB Indians.

I guess Rondon won't be making the top 100 then...

I think David Huff does make it. Mostly cause he's a lefty.

He is 8th on BA's Indians Prospects...that is the official BA list.

The Rangers probably get the two Travis's, Travis Snider and Travis Buck.

Doesn't Travis Buck have almost a full season's worth of MLB AB already?

Reposting after drafting Matusz and realizing that I didnt have Blanks on the list...
Mike Moustakas
Brian Matusz
Jhoulys Chacin
Aaron Poreda
Kyle Blanks
JP Arencibia
Bryan Anderson
Neftali Soto
Michael Main
I also think Will Inman, JA Happ and David Huff will turn up on Top 100 lists, but probably not BA...
Guys in bold I would trade

Freese is one of those guys who hits, and puts up numbers, but will never get the recognition because he wasn't highly promoted when drafted.
I can see him having a Kevin Millar type career.
