After falling short in a close vote for the fifth spot, pitcher Jesus Luzardo joins our Community Prospect List at No. 6. Here’s the current list, including their winning margins (the difference between his % of the vote, and the % of the runner-up):

  1. A.J. Puk, LHP (+62%)
  2. Franklin Barreto, SS (+56%)
  3. Jorge Mateo, SS (+22%)
  4. Dustin Fowler, OF (+24%)
  5. Sean Murphy, C (+0%)
  6. Jesus Luzardo, LHP (+37%)

We’ve already placed two members of the trade return from last summer’s Sonny Gray deal, in Mateo and Fowler.
