BA Rankings

Nobody has posted this yet. I'm not a BA subscriber so I can't see the scouting report. Still, interesting to see where players measure. Some guys got ranked for leagues where they spent little time (eg. Puig), and others are double ranked (Buxton #1 ranked in two leagues). With that said:

GCL: nobody

Appy: nobody

NY Penn: #3 - Michael Feliz

Midwest League: #2 Correa; # 5 McCullers; #12 Velasquez

California Leauge: #4: DDJ

Texas: #1 Springer; #2: Folty; #6: Santana

PCL: #3: Springer; #11: Cosart; #13: Singleton; #19: Villar

A few observations:

  1. BA keeps its reputation as toolsy in evaluation: most of us would have DDJ and Folty lower, and would want Tucker and Ruiz ranked for their bats. Those guys don't get rave reviews for arm, speed, or defense
  2. Singleton not very toolsy, but took a huge hit this year nonetheless
  3. AA rankings spread out more, with three leagues and only 8 teams in the Texas League. Still, gotta feel good about Santana being ranked #6
  4. Biggest omissions from a homer: Ruiz, Aplin, Tucker, Wojo
