The Good Phight’s Community Prospect List

How often is it that you see a team have a prospect drafted in a season, in a second round, that finished higher in a list like this than the player that was drafted in the first round, the round before him?

I find it fascinating that Burkholder has been chosen here as the better prospect to Dante Nori. There are many outlets that agree with you, including the one that is the basis for the scouting reports here. Burkholder was ranked ahead of Nori on Fangraphs and by Matt Winkelman, but swapped spots with Nori according to Baseball Prospectus.
