I still eventually have to get to the minor league report, but it's almost good that I'll now have the new offseason rankings for them. Graduating our top prospect dropped us to 7th of 20, though we feature six top 100 prospects. Only one is in the top-20, but we have three in the 30s and are in much better shape then we were. Now it's 27 prospects ranked among the top 500, including 14 of the top 251.

Yes we obviously have 251. Here's how it all shakes out:

1. SS Bill Grimm (19th Overall): 2nd/22nd
2. RHP Hub Russell (30th Overall): 11th Overall Pick
3. CF Orlando Benitez (34th Overall): 3rd/39th
4. RHP Johnny Kern (35th Overall): 31st Overall Pick
5. LHP Jim Place (74th Overall): 6th/85th
6. C Raul Zamora (97th Overall): 5th/71st
7. RF Cliff Coleman (158th Overall): 8th/141st
8. C Clem Barney (159th Overall): 71st Overall Pick
9. CF Bill Reinhard (161st Overall): 9th/144th
10. 2B Ralph Tuomi (174th Overall): 91st Overall Pick
11. CF Phil Weeks (176th Overall): 211th Overall Pick
12. SS Art Strait (203rd Overall): 51st Overall Pick
13. RHP Tom McDaniel (214th Overall): 231st Overall Pick
14. RHP George Jones (251st Overall): 111st Overall Pick
15. CF George Clarke (254th Overall): 10th/181st
16. SS Bill Tannen (267th Overall): 7th/132nd
17. 3B Tony Nino (293rd Overall): 291st Overall Pick
18. CF Bob Adams (297th Overall): 131st Overall Pick
19. SS Horace Stewart (319th Overall): 171st Overall Pick
20. RHP Johnny Maples (355th Overall): 191st Overall Pick
21. RHP George Spencer (397th Overall): 22nd/436th
22. 2B Marv Sandau (415th Overall): 15th/356th
23. 2B Rafael Zambrano (432nd Overall): 17th/384th
24. RHP Herb Thomasson (471st Overall): Not Ranked
25. LF Doug Lang (479th Overall): 12th/324th
26. RHP Ed Wells (482nd Overall): 14th/345th
27. SS Sam Pratt (495th Overall): 20th/425th

12 of our 25 draft picks are apart of the offseason top 500, including 11 of our first 12 picks. The only one absent is Alex Perry, which doesn't really surprise me as he doesn't have great scout ratings and was a pure project pick of mine. With help from a deep class and the ability to actually make the picks, I have completely reinvigorated our system, and in the two short seasons back I have acquired more then half our ranked prospects.
