Miller’s spot in the poll will be filled by Jaydenn Estanista, Carlos Betancourt, Alexeis Azuaje, and Dakota Kotowski.

I promise this is the last time I will add prospects to the poll from the lower ranks because of the good seasons they had in 2022.

I will go forward adding the players you are familiar with no matter the seasons they had in 2022.

Here are the 2022 stats for the guys in the current poll:

  2. Plassmeyer for me. I think he’s a #5 in a MLB rotation, and at this level of prospect, that is a good outcome.

    1. I hope you’re right but why do you think this? He was good in 2019 in A ball but terrible at AA in 2021 and bad in 2022 until he came to us and was then pretty good again.

  3. I went Rincones again. He didn’t play last year but he’s our 3rd pick and has upside. McFarlane, Boyd, Perez and NPG are certainly all defendable upside picks also. These guys could all be higher on this list in a year with another good year.

  4. I was impressed by Dalton Guthrie, I know he’s not much more than a part time player but he is very athletic and skilled. I have voting for him since 8.
