    Will be interesting to see how the mlb.com Top 100 comes out, expecting at least 6, perhaps 7 Dodgers.

    I think a lot of people will complain about the location of these high end Int'l signings on these lists. People just have to remember that a lot of these services are gonna rate those guys pretty low until they get some MiLB at bats under their belts, which is totally understandable. The Dodgers top 10 should look completely different next season.

    Ben Badler just said the Dodgers have spent over $90 mil on Int'l prospects since July 2nd... DAMN

    Find out about Lazarito next week reportedly...signing him would have to push them over that 100MM mark I believe

    The talent pool from Cuba is going to be huge know that there is better relations politically.
    Dodgers taking advantage of it first or best is like the first time that latin americans became a big deal.
    Before that it was the first to bring in black players.
    Dodgers always leading in this kind of thing.
    Tapping new talent pools that other teams dont know how to tap and reaping the rewards first.

    It's also a reflection on how many ABs/IP the Top 7 have, as much as the top international talent having none, even Bellinger and Verdugo who figure to be 6 and 7 (in some order) have over 700 ABs, Seager with over 1500 ABs, Urias and JDL have over 220 innings and Montas over 350.

    High on Diaz...love them some Alvarez.
    I guess the ceilings are just too high to go with Verdugo/Bellinger over them.

    I feel like that's a very aggressive ranking of Holmes, Yadier, and Yusniel but I won't complain ha

    Wonder where Verdugo and Bellinger come into play, can't be that far out of the 101 I'd think.
    Same probably goes for Montas and maybe Micah Johnson, the latter is old tho so

    I was shocked to not see Bellinger in there, the reviews on him this year were great. I think people want to see him out of the hitter friendly Cal League, and how he deals with his K rate. Another year like last year and I could see him being a top 50 prospect.

    Likewise. Thought Bellinger would be there for sure.
    Yeah, that's probably the issue, the Cal league.

    Top 5 for life

    To get 6 in the top 100 is epic when you consider there are 30 teams in the league.

    a good playoff caliber team + big time $$$ + the number one farm in baseball = good times ahead my friends. Our depth is pretty unreal.
