It’s not often you get to see a top prospect list coming from someone who either currently works for, or was recently employed by a front office of a big league ball club. That’s what makes today’s Fangraphs Atlanta Braves Top 32 prospect list even more interesting than anywhere else.
That’s because Fangraphs prospect writer Kiley McDaniel was in the Braves front office until the end of last season, and has plenty of insight into these prospects that other sources don’t have. McDaniel has seen some of these players regularly since their amateur days, as well as having additional reports on these players, and most importantly access to injury, Trackman, and mental makeup information on all of these prospects.
