MLB pipeline isn't updated. That list will look quite a bit different if/when they do a mid season update.

I know they mentioned Acuna would be a huge riser for them (duh).
Wonder if Wentz climbs into the back-end of the their top-100, really no reason for him not to, he has both the draft pedigree and the early success of other top pitchers. Obviously Fried fell off and Newk is graduating
Little early for Wilson, but he has a shot next year.

I still think the Braves system is better. Moncada and Kopech haven't exactly torn it up since being dealt to them (Kopech SO numbers are insane, but the guy has 53 walks in 78 IP). Moncada is still striking out quite a bit. Seems their rankings are still mostly based on their ceilings and not so much on their performance.
we know klaw's list doesn't matter to Enscheff but:
Sox have: 5, 13, 17
Braves have: 9, 26, 32, 35, 39, 41, 49
Sox likely have top 100 guys in Robert, Giolito and 1 or 2 of Lopez/Fulmer/Cease.
Braves likely have: Maitan and 1 or 2 of Fried (Klaw will rank him here, I know many of y'all would not), Pache and Wentz.
Sox have more high end guys. I would favor the high end guys.
But it would be easy to see that top 100 guys are won by the Braves 9 to 7.
Top 10 guys tie
Top 25 guys Sox win 3 to 1 (Braves have 26)
Top 50 guys Braves win 7 to 3.
Dougie Jones: Do the White Sox now have the #1 system?
Keith Law: I don’t think I’d put them over Atlanta, which has so much more depth (7 guys on my top 50, and the list keeps on going). But they might be #2. I haven’t done a ton of work on that.
When FG releases their mid-season list I'll go through the exercise of calculating total surplus value of all the prospects for both teams.
Seriously who cares if people do or don't think we have the best system.
The players are the same, and will perform the same, either way
