What was the record for most top 100?

How about top 75?

[Preacher]

F'n stacked.

Albies is too low.

7 in the top 54??? lollolololoolo, and even after Newk graduates I'm guessing Maitan is going to jump up after he gets some more ABs under his belt.

[Preacher]

Pache might be our next guy to jump on the list.

[striker42]

Albies is getting hit by prospect fatigue a little. Also, I'm sure this list was in progress before Albies' recent surge so that's probably not fully accounted.

Albies should be in the teens.

[atl717]

I tried to tell some people Anderson was easily a top 100 and definitely top 50 for some.

[bravesfanMatt]

I like that they all moved up.. that is the best part.. Well except for Ozzie and that is just insane that he would be punished because he was coming back from a broken elbow.

I'll wait for FG. Doubt they have Albies that low.

In one of the FG chats the host said something about their mid-season list and when it was supposed to come out, but I forget when it was.

[bravesfanMatt]

Non Braves question. So the gNats have 3 on this list.. If you are GM how do you handle the pen. I think you have to make a move.. I can't imagine them trying to win it all with that mess. I almost think you have to get 2, because even your two back end starters are not reliable enough.

I vote this as the most non helpful post of the day.

much appreciated, i do it for you.

[smootness]

The Albies slide is so dumb.

[nsacpi]

We can quibble about individual rankings, but overall they did a pretty good job on the Braves prospects. Of the ones in the Top 100, I would rate Albies and Soroka a bit higher, and some of the others a bit lower. Maitan and Gohara have the potential to rise fast over the next year.

Albies slash line up to .796 OPS... he may finish the year .825 - .850... which would be pretty astounding considering his start and his age

Eloy Jiminez is currently putting up a .846 OPS at age 20 in A ball, and the world is in love with him

[Hudson2]

The system is insane. Nobody else can compare with the talent we have accumulated. I'm not to worried about Albies slide bc he will be a Brave for a long time. Also on the MLB team we have 1b, SS, and Cf locked up for a long time. If rumors are true that we are shopping Teheran we could add one more guy to this list.

Especially considering he is flashing power in a real way. It makes no sense.

I haven't ever liked a baseball post of yours this much.

Crazy because I don't think he has still faced a pitcher younger than him.

[Julio3000]

I think part of it is prospect fatigue, as noted above. I also think he'll have people betting against him because of his size.

I'm really happy with his trajectory right now, and I'm certainly still a believer.
