Hard to argue.
thank you weso1!
If I revised my list, I would put Swanson at 1 ahead of Newcomb and would slide Blair into 7th between Riley and Touki. And that may be unfair to him, I know most rankings have him higher. I just value ceiling a little more than most prospect rankings.
No matter how you slice it, guys like Davidson and Jenkins are now definitely outside our top 10. That is crazy.
What a difference a year makes!
does anyone have last years top 30 ranking.. would be funny to see next to this one..
Swanson
Newcomb
Albies
Allard
Riley
Fried
Touki
Sims
Davidson
Jenkins
That would be mine.
That list is crazy. And with what all we have coming with the draft and international signings we'll have to have a top 20.

Did you forget Blair, or would you just have him below Jenkins?
I now have Ricardo Sanchez outside my top 20. How crazy is that?
Our top 10 list at the end of 2013 was as follows:
1. Lucas Sims
2. Christian Bethancourt
3. JR Graham
4. Jason Hursh
5. Mauricio Cabrera
6. Jose Peraza
7. David Hale
8. Victor Caratini
9. Tommy La Stella
10. Sean Gilmartin
I am not kidding when I say that Victor Caratini, if he had the same value he had when that list was made, would not make our current top 20. And I'm not entirely positive he would make our top 25.
Our top 10 list on December 10, 2014, less than one year ago:
1. Jose Peraza
2. Lucas Sims
3. Christian Bethancourt
4. Jason Hursh
5. Ozhaino Albies
6. Braxton Davidson
7. Tyrell Jenkins
8. Johan Camargo
9. Garrett Fulenchek
10. Kyle Kubitza
Peraza hasn't really lost any value, and right now I would personally rank him around 5 or 6 on my list.
I did forget Blair. He would have to be above Fried since he's ranked higher.
wow.. Jason Hursh was #4.. I completely forgot about him. KK was #10 and we traded him last offseason..

Bios and rankings update OFFICIALLY at the end of winter meetings.
April 1, 2016 revised version. No fooling.
Our May list figures Blair and Mallex to be in the majors for keeps and sadly figure that Winkler might not return. Many of you will be happy that I have made it onto the Ruiz (and Soroka) bandwagon and giving props for Roney and Wilson this time out.
This is the last revision before the June draft. And if anyone asks me about Matos, I will deny everything.

Rather than make changes this close to the draft, just say that Blair fits in at No. 4 for the time being.
Barker dropped from the list, entering A.J. Minter at No. 19!
New prospect list; seems reasonable not to include Jenkins, Cabrera, Gant or Blair on this.
Pache must be something special to be 22 and 29.

I think you have Soroka much too low, he's easily top 10 at this juncture (also you might want to fix his name btw). Riley a bit too high as well after the season he's had so far IMO, though if his hot streak continues the rest of the way he may belong there (but he needs to cut way down on K's for that to happen). I think Herbert is too high as well, but otherwise the list looks pretty solid. Cruz, Wentz and Muller will likey be pushing for the 9-12 range soon if they continue playing as they are, but look to be fairly ranked ATM.
