Has brief writeups on the top 10, plus a little bit about the 11-20 group.  I continue to be impressed by the depth of the system, evidenced by the guys that are not in the top 10, yet have appeared on a top 100 list somewhere in the past 2 months.  They state that the 11-20 group would rank as the 2nd best 11-20 group in all the land.

Seven members of Oakland's top 10 came over in the Haren and Swisher deals. The guys who would have been ranked fourth through 10th previously now help comprise what is probably the best Nos. 11-20 of any team in baseball. 1B Sean Doolittle, RHP Andrew Bailey and OF Jermaine Mitchell would have cracked several top 10s. They're Nos. 16, 17 and 18 here. ... Herrera is falling out of the overall top 150, but there's still hope for him if he's willing to work harder and he has better luck with injuries. When it comes to ability, he isn't far behind Carlos Gonzalez. ... Smith, a product of the Haren trade, is a polished potential fourth or fifth starter. ... Rodriguez has the best stuff in the organization, though he still needs to learn how to pitch. He might end up as a closer. ... Powell seemed to be emerging as one of the game's better catching prospects before getting hurt yet again last year. This will be his age-26 season, so he desperately needs to put his physical problems behind him.
