kinda weird seeing so many position players in the top 10.

That top 10 kinda leaves alot to be desired though imo

Is Carson Kelly not considered a prospect anymore?

Correct, too much time on the active duty roster. He's appeared in 56 games total dating back to 2016, and the cutoff for rookie/prospect eligibility is < 50 games.

Gorman went 4-5 with a homer and two doubles today. He was a bit cold coming back from his break but now back up to .309/.415/1.015

Well, they seem to be easing him into the game (he did take a fairly long rest) so I'm not sure they'd move him up until the postseason maybe.

Peoria has an underrated good team, maybe the best in the system outside of Memphis. They're coming on strong, especially now that Oviedo and Seijas are starting to pitch better (they've got Alex Fagalde pitching VERY well). Adding Gorman to a lineup that includes Montero, Gonzalez, Baker, Plummer, Denton (the last two are hitting better this year although neither is tearing it up exactly) would make it a pretty formidable lineup. The catchers in Ortega and Rodriguez are both very solid and should be part of the next wave after Kelly and Knizner graduate. I like that team a lot and expect several to eventually make the show, whether one of them is Gorman or not.

Bringing Nolan up to the big leagues would be just like making a big trade

Update:

2-4 last night with a HR.

Now up to:

1.084 OPS, 9 HRs, 24 RBI, 9 2B, 0.62 K/BB in 31 games and 118 ABs.

Oh by the way he is only recently 18 years old.
