FCL Twins played today as well according to MiLB. It'll be fun to start seeing the recap of those games on here too. I saw Yasser Mercedes (our top international guy from a couple years ago) was replaced in CF late in the FCL game and came here to see if you'd note why in the recap.

It might be aggressive, but is there a chance any of this year's draftees get moved up to single A after the short season ends? Would be fun to track these guys a few weeks longer

Walker Jenkins I put Jenkins at the top because his overall athletism gives him a higher floor than LeeBrooks Lee Lee has the highest floor in the system, but his ceiling seems to be limited by his avg athletic ability. Emmanuel Rodriguez Before the drafting of Jenkins, Rodriguez had the highest upside in the system. It has been nice to see his start to his better since a slow start to the seasonMarco Raya Consistently productive and pitching well in AA as a 20 year. Charlee Soto Good tools across the board with the attitude to take to coaching and mold into a solid all around pitcher. Connor Prielipp I get a Canterino vibe with Prielipp. If he were healthy he would be my first pitcher on this list but his lack of availability could put him in the out of sight out of mind category. Electric stuff when he is healthy. Matt Wallner I have always been down on Wallner as i think his K numbers will limit his productivity in the majors. That said, i have been encouraged by the adjustments he has made in St Paul since his time earlier in the season with the twins and seems to be putting some of those concerns to rest. Tanner Schobel Despite positional question marks, he has been arguably best hitter for a very good Cedar Rapids team. Walks an ok amount and does not strike out a lot. Simeon Woods Richardson I still believe in his upside but the results that he has produced this season moves him down the list a little for me. Brandon Winokur Big tools in his scouting reports. If he can fill out and produce consistent actions in the batters box and in the field, he could be much higher. Yasser Mercedes Big tools and I believe he will settle in for a solid first season stateside. David Festa Seems to be a try hard pitcher with OK tools but nothing to wow me into thinking he can be much more than a 3,4,5 starter. Kala'i Rosario I put Rosario higher on the list because it seems his in game power has taken off leading to a career best OPS while cutting down on K's and increasing his BB's. Also just turned 21 and may soon be heading to AA Jose Salas While he is still young, he is not putting together good numbers at A+ and for the first time in his career is striking out more than once per game, while his walks have also decreased. Austin Martin Anxious to see how he performs the rest of the year and I hope he gets back to focusing on being the contact hitter that got him drafted top 5. Bryan Acuna Overall has good tools and a family tradition that make me think he will figure out his slow start stateside. Luke Keaschall Solid overall toolbox as a college draftee who does not strike out much. If he can swing at good pitches while maintaining contact skills, he could move quickly through the system. Jordan Balazovic Being used exclusively as a reliever puts him as the lowest pitcher in my top 20 but he has proven to be very successful in the role. Noah Miller Seems to be a very similar prospect to De Andrade. They both are very consistent across the board with OK tools but nothing outside of their defense will wow you. Danny De Andrade
