    Felt like Wentz was a lock for top 80 or so personally. Guy has been a stud all year.

    Allard and Soroka both have major room for improvement there. I don't think that's even close to where they end up and they are in AA.

    Rosario is 10 spots above Ozzie simply because of size. I'm convinced.

    Assuming they were roughly similar (Rosario slightly better in AAA), wouldn't you take the larger player that would naturally be projected to have more power?

    I don't have a problem with Rosario being ahead of Albies. 10 spots is a bit curious, as Rosario was in the PCL and a full year older than Albies and not as good a hitter in any year prior to this one, but I can at least see it.

    Acuna behind Rosario and Jimenez, and really even Moncada, is pretty stupid. Obviously he's slow to make big moves on guys, which I like for the most part, but his performance is clearly far superior to those guys, all things considered.

    I'd probably take the younger guy who has been better every other year, plus has shown more power.

    FG had him #1 pre-draft so no surprise there.

    If you take away the guys already getting a taste, you're left with a 1A and 1B of Jimenez and Acuna - tough for me to argue with that.
    Has there EVER been a statement and question a certain someone should absolutely never have made and asked publicly more than...

    Kinda pathetic to see yourself as a message board knight in shining armor. How impotent does someone have to be in real life to resort to playing hero on a message board?

    I appreciate that they seem to hold steady on guys rather than fly them up or down depending on a bad half season. Guys like Ray and Meadows come to mind.
    Pache moves into top 100.
    Allard seems very low @ 65.
    Gohara flys up to 42.

    Acuna should be #1. And after seeing Devers, there's no way anyone takes Moncada or Rosario over him. If Devers was #1, I wouldn't argue it.

    This is where I am. To me, the possible guys at #1 are Devers, Acuna, and Vlad Jr. That's it.

    I'm sure other outlets will have Acuna top 3. But what he's done this year can't be ignored. He's been unreal and has just continued to get better.

    Very disappointed in this content by FG. A list with no FVs and very little info as to why guy moved up or down.

    It's almost like he spent so much time on the preseason lists he only did the bare minimum for these updates.

    I would guess he doesn't spend a lot of time on the 'midseason' one. The preseason list seems to be factoring in pretty heavily on this one, which is what makes me think he used that as a baseline and made adjustments off of that.

    these lists certainly aren't easy and every fan base ends up with some minor --- see what I did there? --- gripes.... .mine biggest takeaway is that people are still too low on Soroka.

    I think Soroka is our best pitching prospect. Period. Maybe its Kyle Wright, but I want to see a full season of him before I say that.
