For the most part this is a defensible list.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>In the lead-up to the list, he does notice that a lot of our top prospects took steps back or struggled in 2023. And yes he&#8217;s right.  Hassell didn&#8217;t seem right all year.  Cavalli missed the entire season with TJ.  Bennett GOT TJ.  Green strikes out half the time he bats.  Susana can&#8217;t find the plate.  So yeah there&#8217;s some angst in the system.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>His top 3 are basically the same as anyone elses right now: Crews, Wood, House.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Putting Vaquero 4th is ridiculous &#8230; and is one of the two really notable fantasy-tinged picks in this list.  He&#8217;s doing analysis for dynasty leagues who are drafting 18 and 19yr olds, and in those leagues guys like Vaquero are getting snapped up.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>He&#8217;s dinged Green down to 8th, whereas most have him a bit higher.  He has to figure out how to not strike out.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>10th was Sykora, entirely on draft bonus amount and hype.  <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The highest players he doesn&#8217;t have ranked would include the likes of:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Rutledge, who still maintains rookie status.  I guess when you&#8217;re a 6th starter in the majors, you&#8217;re less valuable than an 18 yr old who hasn&#8217;t thrown a pitch in pro ball.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Lile, who MLBpipeline is super-high on.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Bennett, though to no surprise since he is missing all of 2024.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Happy Thanksgiving!
