1. Manny Banuelos 
2. Dellin Betances 
3. Gary Sanchez 
4. Austin Romine 
5. Mason Williams
6. Ravel Santana
7. Jose Campos

14. DJ Mitchell
15. Zoilo Almonte
16. Cito Culver

  2. @bennyh32 we actually tried our very hardest to use both major league readniness mixed with ceiling and long term projections. We spent countless hours voting and debating about who should be where and why. I think we did a great job mixing potential with mlb readiness. Its evident when you see guys like romine at #4 because i think he could start for more then half the teams in the majors right now. Then you have a guy like ravel santana who is far away being ranked at #6 because in my opinion his potential is just that good.
