    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.

    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.

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

    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.

    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.

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

    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?

    It is a combination of production and projection. It would be hard to argue Albies has a higher upside.

    Production? Albies has been better at younger ages and had more homers than Rosario did in the PCL this year.

    I'm simply scouting the stat lines, so there is that for sure. Maybe there's a whole ton of projection in Rosario. But Albies has reached his projection more frequently while younger.
