Updated LAD Prospect Ranking
Phil Gurnee ♦ February 26, 2017 ♦ Leave a comment
David Hood of TBLA finally completed his ranking of the top 60 LAD prospects. He didn’t actually finish but with Cody Bellinger the only player left he hasn’t written about we can figure it out.
Legend:
- MLB = Major League Baseball Ranking
- BA = Baseball America
- FG = Fangraphs
- BP = Baseball Prospectus
- TBLA = David Hood
- RW = Rotowire
- HQ = Baseball HQ
Going to sort by MLB and then by David Hood because David goes 68 deep. If you scroll down far enough you will see that Ariel Sandoval stands out among David Hood’s ranking. David didn’t rank Keibert Ruiz who has been a fast climber because he hadn’t seen enough video yet.
MLB rejiggered their ranking on the fly so with Jose De Leon gone, everyone moved up one spot and they added DJ Peters at number 30. Jose had been ranked as the number two prospect by MLB. David Hood agreed so you won’t see a number two prospect under David’s banner.
I’ve also added for the first time the baseballhq prospect ranking.
