SWanson is already on the list at #19 (currently #12).
Despite the high accolades MLB.com gave him, I have Martinez much farther down. Badler at BA said he would rank several recently available Cuban players above him.

I know it's hard to put 16 year old kids on such a list, but do you think Vladimir Guerrero, Jr. could be close to making your list?"Experience is simply the name we give our mistakes." Oscar Wilde

He actually is not far off the list. He'll probably stay there for awhile tho since he wont play in actual games until next year. And he probably wont be ranked on any other lists either until people see his in-game performance. So he probably wont make the list any time soon.

RHD, I know that you rightly discount catching prospects, because they rarely pan out, and when they do it usually take a few years in the majors. But what do you think of Jacob Nottingham? He's been raking, and he looks like a 1bman long term to me. I know he was way down on the Astros list most places now, but I would be surprised if he didn't rise a lot based on his performance this year. You think he could be a top 100 guy by year's end if he keeps hitting like he has?Last edited by Sour Masher; 07-14-2015, 09:40 PM.

Nottingham also is not too far off the list. He is raking and there's been a lot of hype about him lately. He was #71 on John Sickels' recent mid-year list. If he keeps performing and keeps getting talked up, he could be on the list soon.

IMHO he needs to be pushed up on your list.

And it would be a crime against Nature for any generation to take the world crisis so solemnly that it put off enjoying those things for which we were presumably designed in the first place, and which the gravest statesmen and the hoarsest politicians hope to make available to all men in the end: I mean the opportunity to do good work, to fall in love, to enjoy friends, to sit under trees, to read, to hit a ball and bounce the baby.
