Disclosure: this is a fantasy-related question inasmuch as this is a question regarding prospects in my fantasy minor league farm system. However, I’m not really concerned about the fantasy implications as much as I am curious as to how you would rank the following players in a real-life organizational Top 25 (i.e. considering their real-life, non-fantasy value). How would you rank the following players? My list and rankings below:
1. P Trevor Reckling (LAA)
2. 3B Alex Liddi (SEA)
3. OF Francisco Peguero (SF)
4. OF Greg Halman (SEA)
5. P Wilkins de la Rosa (NYY)
6. RP Kam Mickolio (BAL)
7. C Miguel Gonzalez (CWS)
8. P Chia-Jen Lo (HOU)
9. P Tyler Sample (KC)
10. SP Jorge Bucardo (SF) [Personal favorite]
11. 2B John Tolisano (TOR)
12. 1B Jesus Guzman (SF) [He even worth noting any more?]
13. P Brett Lorin (SEA)
14. P Esmailin Caridad (CHC)
15. 2B Jerome Hoes (BAL)
16. P Chaz Roe (COL)
17. P Chris Cody (MIL)
18. P Juan Jaime (WAS)

22. P Jose Perez (LAA) [Sleeper that I really like]
23. SP Matthew Way (PHI)
24. OF Matt Angle (BAL)
25. P Fabian Williamson (BOS)
Organizational flotsam: P Sean Black (NYY) OF Joe Dunigan (SEA); SS Dustin Coleman (OAK); P George Kontos (NYY); SP Alex Periard (MIL); SP Justin Souza (OAK); P Kenta Suda (SEA); P Aaron Pribanic (SEA); OF Alexis Espinoza (DET); C Nevin Ashley (TAM); P Brian Moran (SEA)
Is there anybody you feel ranked too high? Too low? Remember this is in actual prospect terms, so treat this as if it were a fictitious Sickels’ exercise.
