Baseball America Releases Top 100 List w/ Two Yanks


Two members of the New York Yankees made the Baseball America Top 100 prospects list, Gary Sanchez is obviously one of them and the other is Masahiro Tanaka. Tanaka was ranked all the way at #4, even though he has played so long in Japan, and Sanchez came in at #35.

Mason Williams, Tyler Austin, and Slade Heathcott were all on last years list and are notably absent this season in case you were wondering.

Not that you needed me to tell you but the Twins Byron Buxton was at the top spot followed by the Red Sox Xander Bogarts and the Cardinals Oscar Tavares. That's the way about every list has been but I felt like it was worth mentioning again.

  1. HOW CAN TANAKA BE RANKED WHEN HE HASN'T THROWN A PITCH IN THE MAJOR LEAGUE?????

  2. same way Aaron Judge, Ian Clarkin, etc are ranked so high on Yankees prospects lists. You take into account projections and the hype sometimes just as much as the on the field product.
