MLB Pipeline this morning released its midseason farm system rankings, and to some surprise, the Dodgers checked in at No. 8.
This is after a trade season that saw them move the likes of Rylan Bannon, Yusniel Diaz, Dean Kremer, James Marinan, Luke Raley — all Top 30 prospects prior to being moved. It also saw Walker Buehler, a consensus Top 15 prospect preseason, graduating from the prospect ranks. Finally, the Pipeline list doesn’t include Caleb Ferguson, who has exhausted his rookie status.
