PhuturePhillies Reader Top 30 Poll for #20

Victor Arano overcomes Andrew Knapp’s early lead and takes the 19th spot with 99 of the 348 (28%) votes cast.  Knapp finished second with 74 votes.

Arano becomes the 7th Latin American player voted into our Top 19.  The MLB Top 20 on the Phillies’ site includes 6 Latin players.  Of course, there is some disparity.  While both polls agree that Franco and Grullon are #3 and #11 respectively, we disagree on Carlos Tocci (PP #14, MLB #16) and Victor Arano (PP #19, MLB #15).  MLB ranks Severino Gonzalez #10 and Jesmuel Valentin #20 and neither has cracked our poll, yet.  And we have Yoel Mecias #10, Franklyn Kilome #18, and the shiny new toy that is Odubel Herrera #15.
