Braves Put 5 on MLB Pipeline's Top 100

Davidson clearly is tracking upward, but he's sort of obvious. Among names that aren't as obvious, I'd go De La Cruz. He has one of the best sliders in all of the minors and a good fastball as well. He could fly up prospect lists with a big year this year.

Among hitters, you'd have to go with either Vaughn Grissom or Michael Harris considering they are super young, play premium positions, and show good offensive potential. A big year from either one would have them sitting Top 100 this time next year.

Don't forget Backstrom... he's my guy. I know he's not a premium position guy but his offensive ceiling is about as high as they go.

Backstrom is the kind of lottery ticket I like. He's a big guy who could end up massive and has a super high ceiling with the bat. Huge bust potential but I like stockpiling guys like this because when they hit, they can hit big.

Especially since he was considered a first round guy until his senior year
