True Blue LA's top 20 plus 5

True Blue LA is SB Nation's Dodger blog. Over the last few weeks, Brandon Lennox, the communities' prospect expert, conducted a vote of the community through multiple fanposts. The results are as follows:

Prospect (Age*) 2010
1) Jerry Sands of/1b (23) NR
2) Trayvon Robinson of (23) 9
3) Zach Lee rhp (19) NR
4) Rubby De La Rosa rhp (22) NR
5) Kenley Jansen rhp (23) NR
6) Dee Gordon ss (23) 2
7) Chris Withrow rhp (22) 1
8) Allen Webster rhp (21) 13t
9) Aaron Miller lhp (23) 7
10) Ethan Martin rhp (22) 5
11) Garret Gould rhp (19) 12
12) Ivan DeJesus 2b/ss (24) 4
13) Jon Garcia of (19) NR
14) Kyle Russell of (25) 13t
15) Scott Elbert lhp (25) 3
16) Jake Lemmerman ss (22) NR
17) Ralston Cash rhp (19) NR
18) Leon Landry of (21) NR
19) Nate Eovaldi rhp (21) 10
20) Matt Magill rhp (21) NR

The next five were Brian Cavazos-Galvez, James Baldwin, Javier Solano, Joc Pederson, and Josh Lindblom. Brandon calculated:

Overall, the TBLA top 20 prospects breaks down by position as follows: 10 right handed pitchers, 4 outfielders, 2 shortstops, 2 left handed pitchers, 1 second baseman, and 1 outfielder/first baseman. Of the 12 pitchers, 9 are still considered full time starters, one (Eovaldi) could be either a starter or reliever, and 2 are full time relievers.

Also, when you break down the group by how they were acquired by the Dodgers, you’ll notice that 12 were drafted as high school players, 6 were drafted as college players, and 2 were signed as international free agents. In addition, the youngest player of the group is Jonathan Garcia, who just barely turned 19 last week, and the oldest player is Scott Elbert.

He concluded that the team's system would rank in the 10-15 range of baseball. It is known that BA's list will not look similar to this list, so how would your list compare? Where do you rank the system?
