I'm not sure you've covered this anywhere, but I'm curious as to who you think could make the biggest jump who's currently out of the top 15?

Well Baumler is #16 and if he pitches next year in Delmarva and looks good, he could jump up quickly. Outside of that, I'd say many of the 1st year guys could make a big jump with a good season. Look at Stowers. I almost didn't even want to put him on the list after watching his first pro season at Aberdeen, but two years later he's top 10.

It's so hard to make those evaluations with that early look. I did go back and watch some of the college guys in college to get a better feel, but its still not easy to make an accurate eval on them until we see that first full season.

For me that’s the most interesting question, who outside the top 20 could be in next year’s top 10?   I’d really love it if a pitcher emerged.   Raul Rangel?   Listed at 6’3”, 150 pounds, there’s a guy who with a good diet and exercise program might suddenly pop.

After I do the top 30 I will do a piece on guys outside of the top 30 that have potential. Rangel is definitely a guy I have info and was following closely.

We’ve seen everyone in the poll named in our top 30 except Mundy, Haskin, And Raul Rangel(who? haha). I’m piecing this together and thinking that the last 4 spots go,

27 - Mundy

28 - Haskin

29 - Rangel

30 - Watson

But I do remember that SS Darrel Hernaiz is @Tony-OH’s boy. 
 

Our system has reached the point where top pick or top prospect status doesn’t guarantee anything. See Grenier, Sedlock, Diaz, Peralta, Jones, and I’m not sure if Alex Wells is still eligible as a “prospect”.

    • Vlad Jr and Burnes....my priorities. Then you can trade Mayo for MMiller.
    • I'm certainly not "fixated" on this. The real issue is the budget. How high will Rubenstein be willing to grow the payroll?
    • It will be retired with the first big $$ free agent or extension signed under Rubenstein.
    • I have no idea what you are arguing. 
    • Cool, nice work there.   So? Are we owed a large market? Does DC not deserve their own team? Should the fans of Baltimore just become Redskins fans and not tried to get their own team when the Colts left?  (sorry to bring up football again but come on, that fits). I laid it all out a couple months ago, MLB has more teams bringing home the hunk of metal than other sports since 2000.  The competitive balance is fine.  It's harder?  Yea?  OK it's harder.
    • The Cowboys have an owner with deep pockets. I agree 100% … There is some cap manipulation that happens. At the end of the day they have a $255 million limit they are required to operate under. The Dodgers, Yankees, Red Sox, etc can decide each year how much they want to add to the luxury tax fund as opposed to not being able to fit a potential move under the cap. Here are the 2024 payrolls for the NFL and MLB   https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/mlb/2024/04/03/mlb-team-payrolls-2024-highest-lowest-mets/73139425007/ Highest $305 million vs $60 million  https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/cap/_/year/2024/sort/cap_maximum_space Highest $259.5 million vs $217 million these numbers will likely get tighter once they make additions before the trade deadline.  If you can’t see the difference I’m just wasting my time. The biggest driving force in MLB beyond the ability of some to spend lavishly is the tv markets. The club controls so much of their tv revenue that it’s an unfair game. The moved that created the Orioles didn’t have much of an effect on the Senators tv market which was likely nonexistent then. Plus MLB is allowing contract manipulation like Othani’s contract. Instead of $700 divided by length 10 years, Somehow he only counts as like $46 million which is laughable. Plus they are paying $85 million in luxury tax fees in 2024.    The Orioles were a large market team when the Expos moved to DC. They could afford to spend with the Yankees, Red Sox , and Blue Jays. Could the Orioles afford to pay $85 million in luxury tax fees? Could the Yankees? I know the answer to both.  What grounds ? Who cares ? The impact was astronomical …It made it very difficult to compete in the AL East without tank a thon! It split their tv market in half. Obviously MLB papered over that long enough to get an agreement done.    They turned a large market team into 2 small/mid market teams. The Orioles and Nationals payrolls combined place them only 11th in baseball. Obviously they could afford to spend more. But it’s doubtful either will ever be top 10 for more than a season  or two as they try to hang onto a window.
