Yeah, for the first time in my memory Cards fans are actually under-rating their own prospects.jerbyrd25 wrote:Four Cardinals on this year's list:
62 - Stephen Piscotty
64 - Marco Gonzales
77 - Alex Reyes
87 - Rob Kaminsky
All are a lot higher than I thought they would be.

No worries about that phins, your rep with prospects here is well known.phins wrote:I should've put my list out earlier so people wouldn't think I'm piggybacking off of the national lists on Sierra. I like several players in different spots than Law, but most notably Jacob Wilson. I have him lower teens, and I thought I was higher on him than the industry!

They also have Raisel Iglesias. I mean the systems seem really similar to me.
Baseball America has Stephenson as the Reds' top prospect, followed by right-hander Raisel Iglesias. Iglesias, as a free agent from Cuba, was not eligible for Law's list, based upon the guidelines he set for himself.

Law went away on his own several times this year (which personally I like). It's good to have convictions and be able to justify them, unlike the Vaughn Bryan thing last year.

Re: Keith Law minor league system rankings
Law doesn't include Cuban Free Agents because he considers their time playing in the Cuban big-boy league to be professional enough experience to separate them, experience-wise, from the pack. He also doesn't include Asian free agent signings as prospects.
