The Golden Sombrero’s Top 50 Prospects Recap: 11-20
Shortly after the turn of the New Year, we began unveiling our Top 50 Prospects for the 2011 season. The list is the product of hours of deliberation between Dee and myself, and is far from your average, cookie-cutter top prospect list.
Our rankings are based on a number of criteria such as ceiling, refinement, age, level, performance, and health thus far. Positional scarcity and chances to stay at a premium position in the Major Leagues carries some weight too, but is a lesser component. No pitcher rankings are based off of potential as relievers because no top arm ends up in the bullpen unless the front office decides to lose its mind.
In case you have missed any player on our list, here is a recap of 11-20:
11. Mike Moustakas, 3B, Kansas City Royals
12. Aroldis Chapman, LHP, Cincinnati Reds
13. Julio Teheran, RHP, Atlanta Braves
14. Jameson Taillon, RHP, Pittsburgh Pirates
15. Wil Myers, C/OF, Kansas City Royals
16. Shelby Miller, RHP, St. Louis Cardinals
17. Michael Pineda, RHP, Seattle Mariners
18. Chris Sale, LHP, Chicago White Sox
19. Jacob Turner, RHP, Detroit Tigers
20. Freddie Freeman, 1B, Atlanta Braves
