  1. Jesus Made
    easy, top prospect in all of baseball
  2. Luis Pena
    holds breath that he stays healthy
  3. Andrew Fischer
    would be #2 if he could cut down on Ks. Power is for real, moxie is for real, but the Ks are for real too
  4. Cooper Pratt
    not long for this list.
  5. Luis Lara
    MLB extension and call up some point this season
  6. Josh Adamczewski
    would be top 3-4 in most systems.
  7. Bishop Letson
    top arm, but far from a sure thing, but better laterly
  8. Marco Dinges
    health is a key factor. if not a catcher long term he falls, but he can hit
  9. Jett Williams
    could jump up if he can get the bat going
  10. Tyson Hardin
    closest to the bigs, but not quite the upside of Letson
  11. Blake Burke
    seriously a top 5-10 in most systems easily, but falls to #11 here.
  12. Braylon Payne
    ditto for Burke. And he can jump into top 10 if he continues to hit
  13. Jeferson Quero
    future back up C and occasional starter, but is nowhere near the top 3 prospect in the system he once was - that injury stole some defensive grade and looks like lost developmental time, outside of Wilken the biggest faller in my eyes the past 6-12 monhts
  14. Jaron DeBerry
    looks like a very brewers pick - cost next to nothing but he is pitching well at each level. Not a #1-2 profile, but could be a middle rotation pitcher
  15. Brady Ebel
    still so young, and was cold, then hot, and now fine. Will see if he jumps the board or gets taken over by the depth of the system
  16. Luke Adams
    health is so key. Still not enough contact, but he is making the BBs and the power work at AAA
  17. Diego Frontado
    definitely the top DSL player so far
  18. Alexander Frias
    helium watch here
  19. Jayden Dubanewicz
    could be another Letson/Hardin success story if he can stay healthy, he can command his stuff and the uptick in velo is good to see
  20. Ethan Dorchies
    best pure stuff of the young bunch of pitchers, but just not the results this season and it could go to M. Rodriguez, Meccage or Thompson here at #20.

Interesting to see JD Thompson make it over Josh Knoth.

Knoth is two years younger, currently healthy, and has much better results (in admittedly small samples for both) at the same level this year.

Pretty wild the discrepancy in votes between Frias and Juan Martinez too...

2025-26 Juan Martinez (312 PA)
337/452/558 (153 wRC+)
15.1 BB% | 11.2 K%
.373 BABIP | .221 ISO
43 SB / 3 CS

2025-26 Alexander Frias (245 PA)
383/469/555 (157 wRC+)
12.2 BB% | 17.7 K%
.460 BABIP | .172 ISO
19 SB / 9 CS

Advantages Frias
- hotter right now
- younger
- taller, more projectable

Advantages Martinez
- plate discipline
- base running
- isn't limited to corner outfield
- better ISO
- hasn't needed to run a .460 BABIP to get to his numbers

Very valid point.  I think the lost year and the unknown of his recovery impacted me.  I didn’t have Thompson in my top 20, but would have had him like 22 and Knoth more like 25-30 because of his unknowns right now, while Thompson gets a nod due to pedigree, which is sometimes common. And he has the potential to be a quick mover based upon his college career, but nothing is given.  

 

Interesting to see Knoth v Meccage in the future as to who winds up better ultimately.

I don’t think it’s that wild. Frias being an entire year younger and having considerably larger raw tools is a big leg up for him. There’s a reason Frias is starting to get a lot of industry hype and Juan Martinez isn’t.
