OK, so I made some adjustments. Put Peguero at #6, moved Bolton to 7, put Malone at 8, moved those previously at 7 to 17 down to 9 to 19. So this is the updated top 19. Burrows won the run-off at 17 (a/k/a 19). Added Yoyner Fajardo. Please suggest who you want next.



1. Mitch Keller, SP, 23, AAA/ML, 63.2% of the votes

2. Ke'Bryan Hayes, 3B, 22, AAA 79.6% of the votes

3. O'Neil Cruz, 21, SS?, High A, 71.7% of the votes

4. Quinn Priester, 19, SP, Rookie, 23.6% of the votes, won run-off for #4

5. Travis Swaggerty, 22, OF, High A, 42.6% of the votes.

6. Liover Peguero, 19, SS, SS Rookie; 23.1% of the vote for 5th and 6th.

As I reflect on the list of prospects thus far, I'm happy with who I see. Our minor league system may not be ranked that highly but, aside from the abyss at catcher and the lack of a stud lefty pitcher, we're OK.



I'll ride Rodolfo Castro until he gets in. I think he'll be starting for us by 2023. Impressive hitting stats!

the thing about the Pirates prospects is that most are 20 or younger. Most have not played in AA and it seems to me that you need a lot of prospects in lower levels to have a few good prospects in higher levels.
