I appreciated the feedback I received from the community on my preliminary Giants Top 50 list for 2019. I have taken the suggestions to heart and made some changes in the list to reflect it. As always, try to not get too hung up on the exact rankings. The main point of this exercise is to get better acquainted with the Giants farm system in general and with specific prospects.

It doesn't really matter, but most followers probably aren't that interested in the "Honorable Mention" and "Dominican Dandies".
ReplyDeleteWell, I am interested in them. It you aren't, you can skip those posts.
DeleteNice response Doc!

Top down, honorable mention and Dominican dandies are interesting too.
DeleteI think maybe Pete might have been suggesting not leading off with the Honorables and Dandies.
DeleteWell, if you follow his logic, then "most followers" are going to either be disinterested now or later so he's really saying don't bother with the HM's and DD's at all.
DeleteI've been writing about the same stuff and including the HM's and DD's for over 9 years now and folks still come here to read and comment, so someone must be interested!
No, starting at one is cleaner, but more importantly, THANK YOU FOR THE HONORABLE MENTION AND DOMINICAN DANDIES! I'm in a super deep fantasy league where the top 50 have already been picked through.
DeleteFrom the top!
ReplyDeleteI prefer reverse order...helps build the suspense waiting for number one
ReplyDeleteTop down.
ReplyDeleteTop -- see the brightest stars first, I'm a bit anxious for something!
ReplyDeleteIt may well be a watershed year for the top 2: Bart needs to keep moving and it would be comforting to see young Ramos adjust and BE the future albeit still 19 until September in, what, A+? That will be tough!
I'd be pretty surprised if Ramos didn't repeat Augusta.
DeleteI think Ramos actually did quite well in Augusta given his age and the extreme pitcher friendly environment. The more I think about it the more I think Ramos should repeat Augusta. There is nothing wrong with that. It will be his age 19 season.
DeleteTop down.
ReplyDeleteYour the doctor, Doc. Which ever you prefer. I just enjoy the posts.
ReplyDeleteTop down, please. But, really, any which way you want to come at it is awesome. Thanks, Doc.
ReplyDeleteOK, I think it's pretty clear the Top Down's have it. That's how I've always done it so I'll just keep on doing it.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the input.
....everybody.
DeleteLooks like we'll have a Hot Stove Update tomorrow about Kikuchi and he's not coming here.
ReplyDeleteIs it the Ichiro legacy or the 350 "extra" miles to SFO?
DeleteIs 30 minutes a bridge too far?
Did we not treat Nori Aoki well enough?
Baseball America has ranked Luis Toribio as the 9th best prospect in the Giants' organization. Your opinion?
ReplyDeleteLook at my list.
