This is the season for the top Houston Astros prospects lists to be generated by all the experts around the country. While many people are offering their opinions on who are the Astros top prospects, there are several big wigs in the market. While some may not agree with every ranking they do, the top names in the prospects game are MLB Pipeline, Prospects 360, and Baseball America. I think that Baseball America does a good job ranking the players with other aspects other than just the stats and they know their stuff.
One of the people behind the prospects lists is the Managing Editor JJ Cooper, who really knows his stuff whether it’s who the Astros should protect in Rule V draft, what a specific hitter is capable of, and what pitches puts a particular pitcher to the top of the list.
