Kicking off the 2020 Prospects Thread with our Top-30 list.

Gonna need to update the list since we traded Wilson.

I'm expecting big things for the system this year. We'll be adding a top 10 pick who will most likely slide into our top 5. I think Adams takes a huge step forward and makes things interesting for our outfield situation. I also expect Soriano to take a big step forward. Bradish will be in the top 10 next year.

Boldish prediction: If C-Rod is healthy for the full year, he will be our number 1 prospect in 2021.

I agree on Adams and Rodriguez. 

Bradish was traded to O's for Bundy.

@Angelsjunky, @Dochalo, @Dave Saltzer, @Inside Pitch, @totdprods, @Second Base, @rafibomb do you guys think we should update our list now or wait until we see if a trade will go down between now and ST?

I do think we should update it before the start of the regular season.

[Inside Pitch]

We should probably wait til the report date and then have any update ready if they haven't completed anymore trades

[Angelsjunky]

I agree with IP. Let's wait until Spring Training.

Season over.

[Second Base]

Adams, Soriano, Hernandez, Marsh, Alex Ramirez and Arol Vera will all see their stocks rise this year.

Sanitary or stir ups?

He said "the top 10", not necessarily "our top 10".  Ha!

I would add Chris Rodriguez - if healthy. I think Deveaux  and Knowles might go up a bit, but not hugely so - more consolidate as legit prospects.

If you've got the calves for it, sanitary.

Yeah, we've still yet to see what Rod truly has to offer. Hoping this is the year. Putting him, Soriano, Stallings, Yan (if they don't fast track him into relief because of his 40 man spot) and Pina should really be something. 

Deveaux and Knowles will be with keeping an eye on. Knowles moving up to A Ball should provide a challenge. Deveaux getting that additional season in Orem next year should help him learn to hit a bit more and instill some confidence.

What you really what is the gap between the stirrup and the leg, to show how huge your calves are.

It's basically the 80's baseball version of the thigh gap.

I agree with waiting. I'd put it at a 2 in 5 chance that a trade happens before ST that would most likely affect our list and if not, maybe a 1 in 3 chance that something happens during ST that affects our rankings. 

[HaloMilliVanilli]

That's not fair.  What if you have huge calves....and huge ankles?

The Rocket City Trash Pandas stadium is looking good.
