![]() Here’s some of the key parameters and thresholds the two sides agreed upon on 3/10/22. They’ve already let the proverbial camel’s nose into the tent (with respect to the salary cap), and they knew they couldn’t completely get rid of it, so they leveraged what they could to get what they could. I’ll update my docs.Īfter “losing” the last two CBA negotiations, the player’s union was in a tough spot. It’d be super helpful if would have listed them as having graduated (since that’s my primary source for determining that). Update post publishing: per commenter, Adams and Thompson have graduated … which makes you then ask, “well why the hell is he on BAs’ list?” And the answer there is … well, because i don’t know. Did he graduate rookie eligibility? I can’t tell. Mason Thompson another guy who BA had just outside their top 10 … then suddenly he wasn’t there at all.I guess a backup catcher who we all think is going to play every 4th day is not a prospect. Riley Adams: nowhere to be seen despite being #11 on BA’s list.Tim Cate: completely unranked but is as high as #12 on Law’s list.Daniel Marte: completely off the radar too.Holden Powell‘s injuries have dropped him off the radar he needs a bounce back 2022. ![]() Mason Denaburg gets #30 treatment, but Seth Romero is nowhere to be seen.Several recently drafted players are in the 20s but entirely missing from BA’s list, guys like Saenz and White.Lucius Fox is #23 … one of the few times we’ve ever had a waiver claim be ranked in our prospects list.Boissiere comes in at #17 … after missing BA’s entire top 30.Quintana continues to be all over the map: they have him #15 he’s been as high as #7 (Keith Law) and as low as #24 (Baseball America).238 hitter who projects as a corner OF with no power. But their scouting report is a little dour, projecting him as a bat first spray hitting 4th outfielder. They’re high on Daylen Lile, having him at #10.Having these three guys in the 6-8 range is completely reasonable. No quibbling here all three could serve as really useful arms in our system in one fashion or another. Next three are our tertiary tier of RHP starters in order Lara, Carrillo, Adon.The only other shop to even bother attempting to rank him immediately post signing was ProspectsLive (who had him 4th). MLBpipeline is one of the first to rank Vaquero legitimately they’ve got him 5th as a starting point in the system.Which tells you what I think about this source versus others. Notably, no other shop has these two arms as high, most pushing them down in to the 6-9 range. Law had them 3-4 as well, just in the reverse order. They’ve got our next two significant arms at 3-4 (that being Henry/Rutledge).At the top, Ruiz is graduated, so they go Cavalli-House at 1-2 like everyone else.Here’s the link to the story and the list itself. We’re still waiting for a couple major shops who generally release rankings: Fangraphs, ESPN, BleacherReport, and CBSsports.īack to MLBPipeline’s list, which is perhaps the most respected source out there. Here’s the links to past analysis: Keith Law/The Athletic, Baseball America,, Prospects1500, Prospects361. The team (which includes senior prospect analysts Jim Callis, Jonathan Mayo, and Sam Dykstra) has released their updated top 30 rankings for our system. In our continuing series of reviewing/reacting/criticizing Nats prospect lists as they’re released, today we got a big one. ![]()
