[USML Announce] Law's Updated Top Prospects List

[springkerb at aol.com]

Realistically, the $10 guys are all of marginal value, given that most prospect burn at least a year of their contracts before they are worth anything, and quite a few will never be even be useful major leaguers.  There's the occasional Mike Trout, but there are a lot more Justin Smoaks.  So I would conclude that there's a VERY small number of potentially useful guys scattered widely across the league (the $5 and under ones).  At the same time, however, history suggests there will be suckers who will give real value for some of those $10 spins at the wheel, so the Berliners will likely leave a few cars stripped and sitting on cinder blocks around the USML neighborhood.

It's out.  And it's not particularly kind to the self-proclaimed King 
f Prospects, our very own Brad Lee Badfinger.  Here you go:
1.  Jurisckson Profar - Lake Michigan Calamari $5
.  Dylan Bundy - Riptorns $5 (But his contract is running)
.  Manny Machado - Berliners $10
.  Wil Myers - Berliners $10
.  Travis D'Arnaud - Brats $2 (But out for the season with a knee 
njury)
.  Taijuan Walker - Berliners $10
-10 NL Players
1.  Francisco Lindor - Berliners $10
2.  NL
3.  Bubba Starling - Block's Bombers $19
4.  NL
5.  Nick Castellanos - Klein Nine!! $5
6-17 NL Players
8.  Byron Buxton - Berliners $5
9.  NL
0.  Carlos Correa - Hoosier Daddies $2
So....what do we conclude?
1.  Berliners with 5 of the top 10 (and 4 of the top 7) AL prospects.
.  Riptorns with onely 1 top 11 prospect and he has a running contract.
.  Calamari with the #1 overall prospect.
.  Brats, Bombers, Daddies and Klein Nine (?!?!?!) with one top 
rospect apiece.
That is all.
Jeff
