Anxiously anticipating the grades....

….for Atlanta. Really interested in Minor, Teheran, and Gilmore.

Gilmore isn't a Brave

He was included in the Javy Vazquez deal.

I wonder who will be the Braves top guy…

got to be Minor right?

The real question is Heyward an A or A+

I would

put Minor at about #5 on the Braves prospect list. Probably a handful of guys in their system already that are better prospects.

fwiw, this would be my Braves top 10: Heyward, Freeman, Teheran, Bethancourt, Minor, Stovall, Jones, David Hale, Brewer and then Oberholtzer.

no Kimbrel?

no Randall Delgado? Hoover? Spruill?

Which Jones do you mean? Mycal Jones? I don’t think he’s really top 10 material…I like Stovall’s arm but I think the walks keep him out of the top 10 for now.

Agreed

For me, it goes:

Heyward
Freeman
Teheran
Delgado
Bethancourt
Spruill
Hoover
Minor
Kimbrel
Rohrbough - Yeah, he had a very poor year and had confidence issues, but I still think he should sneak onto a top 10

It is nice to see him getting some respect. The three top 10 round college pitchers I had liked were Sean Black, Dallas Keuchel, and him. I also liked Johnson from LSU, but those were the three I really wanted. Fortunately my team got one, but Hale would have been nice.

Not too different

My top ten would be:
1. Heyward
2. Tehran
3. Freeman
4. Hoover
5. Milligan
6. R. Delgado
7.Minor
8. Betancourt
9. Spruill
10. Masters
then D. Delgado, C. Kimbrell, and C. Johnson, and M. Crim in some order…
