KUDOS to Benjamin Chase, Rates TOP 100(103) prospects FIINAL

Why was Abraham Gutierrez not on the list?

Abrahan, with an "n", not an "m". Going to be akin to Andruw spelling stuff...

I mentioned technological issues in the piece. Here's the entire deal - I replaced a router the 1st of November after having major issues with connectivity throughout the latter half of October. In the case that affected the list, I was editing the list when the internet went out in the midst of an auto save. That auto save captured strike through's on 5 players that I had recently added to the larger list from position ranks, but it did not capture the larger list. All five guys that ended up affected were top 50 guys, and as I began writing up the project, I realized that I was missing them later on up the list, so I figured out who all had been missed, why they were marked off on my spreadsheet, and then decided to do an "oopsie" addition of 5 names to the overall list. Certainly it was not a matter of overlooking any of those players, especially as I'm about the biggest Braulio Vasquez champion you'll find since last summer when he first started making waves in the organization in the DSL.
 
Do you know what has happened with Matt Rowland?

Last I knew was his Twitter from July when he posted a video of him working at the Braves facility. I know he was at fall instructs, but I haven't heard anything on how he looked (a couple guys I normally hear from didn't go due to Irma, and it meant I didn't have any trusted eyes on Braves fall instructs).
 
After the loss of prospects this offseason and some further reports on players, I've released an updated top 100: https://calltothepen.com/2018/01/31/atlanta-braves-revised-top-100-prospects/

Also, because you don't want to have to look hard to find prospect rankings, I put together a spreadsheet to track team prospect lists, Braves players who appear on overall top 100 (or more) lists, and Braves prospects that appear on positional rankings lists. you can link to the article here: https://calltothepen.com/2018/01/31/atlanta-braves-prospect-ranking-tracker/
