Drew Naylor took home spot number 16 in closely contested voting. Mike Stutes made a nice surge, no doubt helped by his positive press in the BA chat. Anthony Hewitt also received 5 write-in votes, so he enters the voting. We’re going to keep motoring along with the Top 30, when we finish I’ll have a few comparison pieces on certain prospects, and then I hope to unleash my Top 30 sometime in early February. For now, let’s get to #17

Prospect Q/A with Kevin Goldstein
I figured I’d ring in the new year with an always popular feature, a Q/A with the top prospect guru at Baseball Prospectus and longtime phuturephillies favorite Kevin Goldstein. KG recently unveiled his Phillies Top 11, and was kind enough to answer an extended set of questions I had on his list and on all things Phillies prospects. You know I’m not one to shamelessly plug sites here, but I’d recommend the Baseball Prospectus yearly subscription for Goldstein’s weekly features alone, but you also get good major league coverage, as well as access to the PECOTA projections, probably the most accurate baseball forecasts out there. Highly recommended. Before we get into the Q/A, check out Kevin’s list from last year here, as well as the Q/A he did for the site last year.
