C Rodriguez 24, 25, 29,30 are my eternal optimism for intl signings (long live Christian Guerrero) Last gasp for Grisham, Lara, Ponce, Bickford, Kirby Still a solid top 10-11 despite all the graduations and recent trades. Thanks for doing this, always fun to see results and speculate.

one comment, even before the recent hot streak, I'd have thought Santana is pretty much locked in in RF next year to see what they have.

on the positive side, 14 strikeouts by Diplan yesterday

Hader with 6 K's thru 3, one of them a whiff of Carlos Gomez....

Fun to do this....thanks for your efforts, will be interesting to see the results. 1. Orlando Arcia 2. Lewis Brinson 3. Josh Hader 4. Isan Diaz 5. Corey Ray 6. Luis Ortiz 7. Phil Bickford 8.

I need to figure out how to include about 17 guys on my top 10 list!

With Sabathia I believe PTBNL was Taylor Green if Crew did not make playoffs and Brantley if they did make playoffs

also pissed -- C Ray, Ponce, Diplan, F "don't call me Wily" Peralta, Woodruff, Erceg.....

Great, thanks for the info. Saturday it is, then!

Does anyone know T Rats rotation well enough to know probable pitchers for this Sat and Sun games? I will likely be at one or the other, would be nice to know who may be on the hill. Thanks

Thought it would be relatively thin getting to 25 but was suprised with mix of talent and in some cases enigmas/health issues left off -- Scarptetta, Bucci, Arnett, Heckathorn, Reed, Olmsted, Magnifico, Jesus Saves, Gagnon, Garfield, and even recent return of D'Vo. Also intrigued by Denson like several on bf.net based on the one swing and massive power. All in all system is getting stronger again, and hopefully much more so by midnight on 7/31 with a few of the vets going away for another infusion of talent.

From yesterday's link report -- Mike Olt, much discussed during run up to Grienke trade -- his .500ish AAA OPS is brutal in comparison to anything, much less in comparison to what Segura is doing at the major league level. And is the Josh Romanski with 54.00 ERA the same former Brewer draftee that made pitcher to hitter switch?

sing it with me -- OH CANADA!

MLB game day list Wolf's 5th pitch to Phillips in 1st as a 57mph Eephus pitch. I don't think I've ever seen that before in gameday!
