Baseball America released an updated list of their Top 100 Prospects, which shows two Boston Red Sox prospects cracking the list.
Ah, the Baseball America Top 100 Prospect list. For someone who constantly looks toward the future of baseball, this is like Christmas morning. While BA is only one of a couple different prospect lists, I find it to be if a higher quality. They follow both high school and college baseball, as well as the top prospects of the game.
Baseball America provided an updated version of this year’s list earlier this week. You can find all 100 prospects listed over on BaseballAmerica.com, but we’ll be focusing on the prospects in the Red Sox system.
Obviously, Boston’s farm system is not what it was a year ago. The No. 1 prospect on the list is Yoan Moncada. Along with Moncada, the number 24 prospect Michael Kopech were the key pieces to acquire Chris Sale.
But, the Red Sox do have two very talented prospects in this list. Both players are ranked in the top 50, and have tremendous upside.
