Our 2021 Community Prospect List adds its seventh member, and already its third with MLB experience in James Kaprielian. 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 (+42%)
  2. Tyler Soderstrom, C (+16%)
  3. Nick Allen, SS (+26%)
  4. Robert Puason, SS (+29%)
  5. Daulton Jefferies, RHP (+42%)
  6. Logan Davidson, SS (+15%)
  7. James Kaprielian, RHP (+32%)

The Oakland A’s have five starters in their rotation now that they brought back free agent Mike Fiers, but it will almost certainly take more than that to get through the 2021 season.
