All in all I was happy with the results I got. In the chat, John Manuel said that Chris Huseby's projectable power arm would have ranked in the Top 10 and warranted the bonus that the Cubs gave him. He was a few innings short from qualifying. I thought that Alex Liddi was a dead lock for the lest, apparently I was misinformed. Manuel said he was definitely within the running. I don't like the omission, but that's life. I also think the Derrick Robinson and Nick Van Stratten ratings are the toolsy speed guys BA tends to overrate. That's also one of the reasons that Luis Durango ranked higher than mine did. The only guy I think I might have missed a lot on was Jake Brigham, but he had to have been close unless he lost some velocity or his stuff wasn't good. Tomorrow it is going to be the Gulf Coast League, and you can read my report on that here. I can tell you right now that I underrated guys like Gorkys Hernandez, Carlos Fernandez-Oliva and Preston Manningly. Friday should be the Appalachian League unless they redo the order or push it back until next week.
