Jacob Rhame and AJ Alexy join MLB LAD top 30 prospects

Phil Gurnee ♦ April 11, 2017 ♦ 2 Comments

Just noticed the updated MLB LAD top 30 prospect list. Andrew Toles who had been ranked 9th before spring training was removed, and Austin Barnes who was ranked 11th was removed. I’m guessing because they are on the MLB LAD roster.

Everyone moved up two spots, and they added Jacob Rhame at 29, and AJ Alexy at 30.

Here is the latest list with some notes. The table below shows the current top 30, and the top 30 back in November. Some big moves even before any games were played this year.

Helium:

• Mitchell White jumped 18 spots
• Keibert Ruiz jumped 11 spots
• Trevor Oaks jumped 12 spots
• Dustin May jumped 7 spots

Anchors away:

• Brendon Davis dropped 9 spots but after this sizzling start he’ll probably be right back where he was nine months ago
• Rhame dropped 11 spots
