Clearly the national rankers, who see/discuss, all the prospects like Nick Gordon a lot more than most posters here do.....

Great to see Graterol cracking top 100 lists.  Now, perusing the list, which of those players are going to become Twins in the next week?

Should we all take a moment and recognize how amazing it is that Vlad jr is hitting .400 in AA at 19? I'm stupidly giddy about his future.

I'll guess Blue Jay fan sites are going nuclear that he wasn't called up in May.

I'm surprised Diaz stayed as high as he did and is still higher than Rortvedt.   

 

Rortvedt is on the same team at a premium position, and he's performing better at the plate while being a year younger and having less experience in the FSL.

Some, I am sure. Others probably realized this wasn't their year in the AL East, and they can call Vlad Jr up after 2 weeks next season and get the extra year of control (which definitely does matter for superstars).

 

Personally, I think it would have been cool to call him up as a teenager, but at least we have Juan Soto this year. Vlad Jr can be the story next year, even though he turns 20 in March...

It's already updated with the new players from the deadline trades

4 of the new players made the top 30, Jeffers was taken out

Fascinating. Fangraphs clearly likes Jeffers more. Four more in the top thirty is great.

Really great moves for these two guys considering the Twins farm system is pretty good to begin with; granted a lot of that talent is A or below.
