Need Suggestions for Next Round of Prospect Voting

[Jim Goulart]

Our site owner Brock isn't quite ready to ask for live voting, but we need to have the most complete set of choices first.

Here's the current list of the actual Top 20 as of May 27th.

The last time out these were the additional names to choose from.

Please let us know who else should be among the available choices.

 

[biedergb]

Dubanewicz, DeBerry, B. Owens and wagoner as pitchers.

Frias, Antunez, Fenelon, J..Martinez, Frontado, Moneys, Hughes, Ragsdale, D. miller, Wood as hitters.

not saying I am putting these guys in the top 20 but these would be names I would have in a top 40 list consideration. And I may put a couple in my top 20 vote.

That's pretty exhaustive. The only other ones that stood out to me (although I don't know if any would get any votes).

If you like close-to-the-big-leagues relievers: Mark Manfredi

If you like pitchers who don't end up completely demoralized by the ACL: Diustin Mayorquin, Chase Bentley

If you're buying the last few outings and willing to overlook his start to the season: Carlos Carra

And then the yet to debut Frank Cairone.

Yeah, you can't reasonably present an others at this point of 2026 and not have Frias. Frias not already listed in the Top 20 is fairly comical as it is. The kid is making headlines everywhere in the Minor League baseball universe and he isn't even listed as a votable option? He's a legitimate Five-Tool player batting 0.421 with a 1.197 OPS in 111 PA's as an 18 yo in the Complex with incredible defensive upside and a cannon of an arm in RF with a near 1:1 K:BB ratio with a very palatable 17 % K rate.

Wagoner should be on there.  I think he'll be in Nashville shortly.  Also Dubanewicz and Ibarguen.

Are we able to increase the amount of prospects in the rankings to the standard top 30? There are just far too many interesting guys to just cut it off at 20. 

For Frias the numbers and stats are eye popping but we have to remember this is the ACL. I care far more about approach and raw tools (which he has an abundance of) than the numbers. He is swinging at way too much out of the zone. Though the raw numbers are nice to see. I have some concerns about the swing too, but really good start to being stateside. Expect him in Wilson fairly soon.

I agree, the system must be comically deep because at the last round of voting (despite his impressive performance to date and some positive scouting reports) not a single poster of the 36 who cast a ballot asked to add him to the pool of candidates much less put him in their Top 20.

(Me looking at those Mail-In Ballots)

I like the top 30 idea as well. I dont think I've seen Renz listed, not that I would put him top 20.

[igor67]

You could probably even do a top 30, but only vote on 25 as you would almost certainly get enough differences in the 20-25 range to have 30 different players or more earning votes.

I 50th Frias, also would like to add Leanders Matos. Roboscout is apparently in love him and would have him as the #1 DSL hitter right now(SSS, i know.)

There are probably half a dozen DSL guys that could be added like Matos that if between now and say July when the vote would be done could have enough time to be options.

Matos, Angeni Fernandez, Sebastian Franeitas, O. Ramirez, I am guessing they big 3 money signings are already added.
