After being forced to break a tie in the last iteration of this exercise, the vote was much more convincing this time around. It wasn’t a blowout by any means, but the other end of the tie from earlier in the week won relatively safely this time around. Tzu-Wei Lin took an early lead in the voting and never relented despite a late push behind him, and he comes in as our number 19 prospect.
It can be easy to forget now, but Tzu-Wei Lin was a relatively high-profile international signing way back in 2012. He wasn’t a major headline grabber a la Rusney Castillo or Yoan Moncada, but he wasn’t insignificant either.
