Last week it was Baseball America unveiling its top 10 Yankee prospects for 2013. This week it's Baseball Prospectus. They took the cover off their 2013 top 10 earlier today and there are some surprises at the top. The entire write-up is for subscribers only, but here's how the list shakes out:
1) Gary Sanchez
2) Jose Ramirez
3) J.R. Murphy
4) Slade Heathcott
5) Tyler Austin
6) Mason Williams
7) Greg Bird
8) Eric Jagielo
9) Ian Clarkin
10) Aaron Judge
No surprise with Sanchez at the top again, and the love for J.R. Murphy after his strong 2013 season continues. What really shocks me here is Jose Ramirez making it all the way to #2. He showed flashes of brilliance again this season, starting with an impressive Major League Spring Training. Once again, though, they were just flashes and he struggled to maintain consistency and his health. I don't see how you can take a guy who pitched just 73.2 innings this season and has pitched fewer innings every year since becoming a pro in 2010 and rank him higher than guys like Murphy, Austin, and Williams, but that's just me.
P.S.- The AB4AR Top 30 is coming...
