I suppose that counts as a double instead of a mental error... but damn Judge, that was terrible.

San Diego Padres
Preseason Top 10 Rank: No. 1
Top 100 Prospects (7): LHP MacKenzie Gore (No. 3), INF Luis Urias (No. 20), OF Taylor Trammell (No. 30), RHP Luis Patino (No. 33), SS CJ Abrams (No. 48), 2B/SS Xavier Edwards (No. 78), LHP Adrian Morejon (No. 87)
Prospects Points (MLB rank): 408 (1st)
Even after graduating Fernando Tatis Jr., Francisco Mejia, Chris Paddack, Josh Naylor and Cal Quantrill to San Diego in the first four months of the season, the Padres have a formidable farm system. They still have more Top 100 Prospect than anyone, led by baseball's best lefty pitching prospect in Gore, and incredible depth beyond their impact talent. No organization has done a better job of harvesting both the Draft (Gore, Abrams, Edwards) and international (Urias, Patino, Morejon) crops.

. Los Angeles Dodgers
Preseason Top 10 Rank: No. 7
Top 100 Prospects (4): SS/2B Gavin Lux (No. 10), RHP Dustin May (No. 35), C Keibert Ruiz (No. 36), C Will Smith (No. 57)
Prospects Points (MLB rank): 266 (6th)
While winning six consecutive NL West titles and storming toward their seventh, the Dodgers have integrated a seemingly endless supply of blue-chip prospects into their big league club: Cody Bellinger, Walker Buehler, Joc Pederson, Corey Seager, Julio Urias and Alex Verdugo. Smith recently seized Los Angeles' catching job, May made his debut last Friday and Lux is one of the hottest hitters in Triple-A. The Dodgers keep adding talent, too, stealing right-hander Josiah Gray and shortstop Jeter Downs in a December trade with the Reds and grabbing slugging infielders Kody Hoese and Michael Busch as first-rounders in June.
quote:
. Atlanta Braves
Preseason Top 10 Rank: No. 3
Top 100 Prospects (5): OF Cristian Pache (No. 11), OF Drew Waters (No. 27), RHP Ian Anderson (No. 34), RHP Kyle Wright (No. 38), C Shea Langeliers (No. 69)
Prospects Points (MLB rank): 326 (4th)
After producing three quality up-the-middle players in Ronald Acuna Jr., Ozzie Albies and Dansby Swanson, the Braves have three more on the way in Pache, Waters and Langeliers. That said, Atlanta has more depth in pitchers, with Anderson and Wright potential frontline starters.
quote:
Cleveland Indians
Preseason Top 10 Rank: unranked
Top 100 Prospects (3): 3B Nolan Jones (No. 40), RHP Triston McKenzie (No. 68), LHP Logan Allen (No. 98)
Prospects Points (MLB rank): 97 (21st)
The Indians are on the rise with the youngest collection of Top 30 Prospects, including 14 teenagers. None of them cracked the current Top 100, but the strength of the system is sweet-swinging middle infielders such as Tyler Freeman, Brayan Rocchio, Gabriel Rodriguez and Aaron Bracho.
quote:
Texas Rangers
Preseason Top 10 Rank: unranked
Top 100 Prospects (3): 3B Josh Jung (No. 60), C Sam Huff (No. 79), RHP Hans Crouse (No. 83)
Prospects Points (MLB rank): 81 (24th)
Though Jung had one of the higher floors in the 2019 Draft, he also has a high offensive ceiling, and the Rangers' system is all about ceilings. There's risk involved with Huff, Crouse and others such as outfielder Bubba Thompson, but the rewards could be huge.

Astros own the head to head tiebreaker should the Stros and Yanks tie for best record.

Reds like to hang out around 6 games below .500 and about 5 games back of the WC. Need a W tonight.
