Jared Shuster tops MLB Pipeline 2023 Braves’ Top 30 list

MLB Pipeline has released their 2023 Atlanta Braves rankings Monday and Jared Shuster tops the list of a pitching-heavy top prospect rankings. There aren’t a lot of surprises here. The top four appear in the Battery Power 2023 preseason prospect rankings top four, only in a slightly different order. Here are the big movers:

Jump: AJ Smith-Shawver, RHP (2022: 17 | 2023: 4) Dylan Dodd moved up the same amount, but we’ll give Smith-Shawver the nod for the leap into the top five. The size, the projectability and the stuff (a fastball up to 98 and a slider that flashes plus) all bode well for a former two-sport star still getting used to focusing only on pitching.
