It’s already that time. It seems like just yesterday I was putting the finishing touches on my 2016 Top 10 Prospects, but it’s 2017 now, for better or worse. This is the introductory offering in my 11-part series about the Dodgers’ Top 100 Prospects, ranked by yours truly. This is the third year in a row in which I’ve ranked 100 prospects (ranked 50 in 2014) in the Dodgers’ system, which, wow. Anyway, here are how things will break down:
- 100-76: Couple sentences with best tool, 2017 location and estimated time of arrival in the majors
- 75-51: Same as 100-76
- 50-41: At least a solid paragraph, with scouting grades, 2017 location and ETA in the majors
- 40-31: Same as 50-41
- 30-21: Full scouting reports/write-ups with scouting grades, 2017 location and ETA in the majors
- 20-11: Same as 30-21
- 10-1: Something new this year; I hope it works
I know most of these guys won’t ever see the majors, but this is a labor love.
