Alberto Rodriguez is a bit of a surprise that high. He wasn't highly touted when that trade came through. Perez made a jump as well. He stood out to me with his hitting in the DSL in 2019. Interested to see what he does in 2021.

Only major complaint I have is Carlson, but I understand why he dropped. He could get good way back to the top 10 by seasons end
I agree on all three of those accounts. And who is Adam Macko?

Carlson is gonna surprise some people this year!
Perez has been steadily climbing the boards with his stick, yes. Rodriguez is gonna be better than you think. I can't wait to add the new International Prospects to this list.
Macko was a 7th round HS lefty that threw mis-high 80s. I think he was Canadian iirc? I think he already had a pretty good 4 pitch mix for a HS prospect.

looking him up, he is from Canada. Had a decent start in rookie ball with 31 Ks in 21 innings. 3.48 ERA and 1.41 Whip.

Well, I'm glad to see one of our recent draft picks make it that high on the list.

Sam Carlson should be in the top 15. He is healed up from TJ and in excellent shape.

He's one of my top guys that that I'll be looking forward to this season. They took a gamble on him, and at one time thought highly enough of him to offer all that money.

Supposedly you're arm is a lot stronger once you come back from TJ surgery. I know nothing of his mechanics, but he'll definitely be one to watch come this minor league season.

Jack Leiter with a no no. I get the argument against college guys but in this case it isn't valid. His Dad made almost $70M in his career so he had zero money concerns. Given the option of riding buses all over the country in the minor or going to college and getting an education and having any coed of his choosing he made the obvious choice and now he will go #2 and get paid.

Hey Philip,

Are you going to join us in Spring Training next year? I just booked a place that sleeps 24. LOL

Hey, Darren, sounds good! Just so happens 20 of us extreme radical socialists were talking about going next year, so thanks for the invitation, it seems like you have room for us all, so let's do it. Couldn't come at a better time, next year many of the young ones will be playing a lot in ST, so it'll be perfect.

Philip
