As we continue to close in on the start of Spring Training, prospect season rolls on with the release of Keith Law’s Farm System rankings over at The Athletic. Oakland comes in at No. 27 on the list, just ahead of the White Sox, Braves and Tigers. If you missed it, Law dropped his Top 100 prospect list earlier this week with Tyler Soderstrom checking in at No. 60. Zack Gelof was among the 10 players that just missed, but that foreshadowed a low ranking for the system.
Law doesn’t pull punches in the write up on the A’s either citing their recent misses in international free agency, the draft and the Matt Olson trade.
