The Top 150 Prospect Hitter List

(Photo by Photo by David Kirouac/Icon Sportswire )

Today marks the unveiling of Pitcherlist’s Prospect Hitter List it is designed to help get you all caught up and informed on MLB prospects for your fantasy baseball leagues. We do apologize for the delay between our positional rankings and the top 150 lists – we encountered some technical difficulties along the way. Although this table is static, we are working toward crafting a fluid Hitter/Pitcher Lists as our leader Nick uses in his Pitcher List. Our goal is now to have that ready by August to demonstrate the shift in rankings month-to-month.

Without further ado, my colleague Adam Garland and I have released our rankings for each position and now present our mid-season top 150 hitters. Tomorrow we will have our Prospect Pitcher List out, ranking the top 150 pitchers in the minor leagues. The rankings are geared toward fantasy baseball and take little consideration of a player’s defensive skillset. If you notice, we also made a slight departure from traditional rankings and kept our rankings separated by hitters and pitchers. We feel that such general comparisons between hitters and pitchers are, at the end of the day, impossible to create comparative values – particularly in the minor leagues. So, to mirror our MLB lists – we have opted to keep the general comparisons between respective positions. If you have a specific valuation you’d like advice on – drop us a line, after all, we’re here for your dynasty. Cheers!
