There’s really no need for any introduction on this one, it’s the post upon which all prospectors are judged. It’s the Mid-Season Update to my Top 100 Prospects for 2017 Fantasy Baseball. Full disclosure, I was loosey-goosey with the eligibility rules this time around. So, while some players in the majors and under their limits might appear on this list (Clint Frazier, Franklin Barreto, Etc.), others don’t (Raimel Tapia). No rhyme or reason to it, what-so-ever. This list feels more upside heavy to me, but there was no slant or algorithm for my ranks. Just good old fashioned personal bias, of which I have plenty. Seriously, I’m an opinionated lad! But that’s why I do this in the first place. Please keep in mind, this list is 100% fantasy focused. Meaning it might differ quite a bit from other Top 100’s you may come across. Anyway, thanks for reading and enjoy! Here’s the top 200 prospects for 2017 fantasy baseball — 101 thru 200.

Top 100 Prospects Mid-season 2017 Fantasy Baseball

1. Yoan Moncada, 2B White Sox | Age: 22 | .281/.383/.452 10 HR, 15 SB | Level : AAA – The top talent in the minors, switch hitter with plus speed, a 30 homer power ceiling, and a plus hit tool. Strikes out too much, so he’s not without risk. ETA: 2017

2. Victor Robles, OF Nationals | Age: 20 | .295/.387/.521 7 HR, 13 SB | Level : A+ – In 86 A+ games dating back to August of last season, Robles is hitting .291/.381/.488 with 8 homers and 22 steals. He turned 20 a little over a month ago, to put that statline in perspective. ETA:2019

3. Rafael Devers, 3B Red Sox | Age: 20 | .301/.364/.583 16 HR, 0 SB | Level : AA – All fields power, plus contact, and improving approach. Devers might be the most complete hitter in the minors right now. ETA: 2017

4. Eloy Jimenez, OF Cubs | Age: 20 | .270/.361/.500 7 HR, 0 SB | Level : A+ – Matches advanced plate approach with off the charts raw power. Looks like he has the makings of a triple crown threat, rare combo of low strikeout rate and boom-boom. ETA: 2019

5. Ronald Acuna, OF Braves | Age: 19 | .304/.357/.480 9 HR, 30 SB | Level : AA – Quite possibly my favorite prospect at the moment. Continues to improve by the day, and shows the signs of a superstar ceiling. Power, speed, contact, Acuna has it all. ETA: 2018

6. Brendan Rodgers, 2B/SS Rockies | Age: 20 | .379/.402/.642 12 HR, 2 SB | Level : AA – You’re dreaming on the next Troy Tulowitzki here. The grip it and rip it approach worked in Lancaster, but Hartford’s been a different story. Took a ball to the head last night. ETA:2018

7. Amed Rosario, SS Mets | Age: 21 | .315/.356/.463 7 HR, 14 SB | Level : AAA – He feels like the fantasy baseball version of imprisoned Nelson Mandela. For you Millennials he’s like Max B, but completely different. ETA: 2017

8. Kyle Tucker, OF Astros | Age: 20 | .282/.356/.550 16 HR, 17 SB | Level : AA – A true 5 category fantasy prospects who’s advanced for his age in every way. Wouldn’t shock me if we saw a September callup. ETA: 2018

9. Alex Reyes, RHP Cardinals | Age: 22 | No Stats Injured | Level : N/A – Not pitching this season as he recovers from Tommy John surgery. Now is the time to trade for him if you’re out of contention in dynasty. All-world ace upside. ETA: 2018

10. Lewis Brinson, OF Brewers | Age: 23 | .320/.400/.533 8 HR, 8 SB | Level : AAA – The debut was messy, but don’t hold it against him, there’s a star in there. Power and speed, with plus contact, 5 category stunner. ETA: 2017

11. Vladimir Guerrero Jr., 3B Blue Jays | Age: 18 | .316/.403/.462 5 HR, 6 SB | Level : A – Reminds you of his father, and is already providing advanced production at a very young age (he turned 18 in March). Teaming up with Bo Bichette, to form the unstoppable duo “The Legacies”. ETA: 2019

12. Willie Calhoun, 2B/OF Dodgers | Age: 22 | .298/.343/.567 17 HR, 3 SB | Level : AAA – His .270 ISO to his 12.7% strikeout rate says it all. An elite hitter in a diminutive package, in most organizations he’d be 16 homers deep at the MLB level already. But alas, Concerns about his defense have held him down. The Dodgers will come to their senses…eventually. ETA: 2017

13. Clint Frazier, OF Yankees | Age: 22 | .257/.345/.474 12 HR, 9 SB | Level : MLB – Called up yesterday, and homered in his MLB debut. Brings the “legendary” bat speed, some base stealing ability, and a massive ceiling. Could be Aaron Judge and Gary Sanchez’s partner in crime in the middle of the Yanks order for years to come. ETA: 2017

14. Ozzie Albies, 2B/SS Braves | Age: 20 | .280/.327/.437 6 HR, 19 SB | Level : AAA – The switch-hitting speedster has built on his power season, after season, while bringing the rarest of fantasy skills, elite speed. Developing into a Jose Altuve type. ETA: 2018

15. Anthony Alford, OF Blue Jays | Age: 22 | .325/.411/.455 3 HR, 9 SB | Level : AA – We saw a glimpse of him in his brief MLB callup prior to sustaining a left hamate fracture. The raw tools are starting to develop into a player with massive upside. A divisive prospect, and I’m on the higher end. ETA: 2017

16. Gleyber Torres, SS/3B Yankees | Age: 20 | .287/.383/.480 7 HR, 7 SB | Level : AAA – Before he needed TJ on his non-throwing elbow, Gleyber was on a upward climb to the Bronx. Would be in the Yankees lineup tonight if not for the injury. ETA: 2018

17. Triston McKenzie, RHP Indians | Age: 19 | 82.2 IP, 104 K’s, 3.16 ERA, 1.08 WHIP | Level : A+ – With a build like Chris Sale and the stuff to match, McKenzie looks like the rare low risk/high ceiling teenage starter. Whatever you’re looking for in a pitcher McKenzie has. ETA: 2019

18. Francisco Mejia, C Indians | Age: 21 | .343/.387/.577 9 HR, 5 SB | Level : AA – The undisputed top catcher in the minors, Mejia looks like he could catch everyday and win a batting title. There’s Hall of Fame upside here. ETA: 2018

19. Derek Fisher, OF Astros | Age: 24 | .310/.381/.611 18 HR, 13 SB | Level : AAA – We saw what he could do in his short stint in the Astros outfield. I don’t know if anyone else agrees, but I’m dying for an encore. Someone download that lighter app! ETA: 2017

20. Austin Meadows, OF Pirates | Age: 22 | .248/.313/.358 4 HR, 10 SB | Level : AAA – Was a top 5 prospect for me entering the season, but his stock has plummeted. There’s still massive 5 category upside, but a lack of production, and an abundance of injury risk ain’t a great combo. ETA: 2018

21. Brent Honeywell, RHP Rays | Age: 22 | 86.1 IP, 110 K’s, 4.48 ERA, 1.37 WHIP | Level : AAA – The stuff is all there, but he’s struggled at AAA so far. It’s not a matter of if, but when he settles in. The best Rays pitching prospect since David Price. ETA: 2018

22. Franklin Barreto, SS Athletics | Age: 21 | .281/.326/.428 8 HR, 4 SB | Level : MLB – Made his debut last week in grand fashion, but hasn’t done much since. The approach is a concern, but power, and some speed from the middle infield is in high demand. If he can master his strikeout issues, and get enough chances to steal 15-20 bags he could be a superstar.

23. Bo Bichette. 2B Blue Jays | Age: 19 | .395/.457/.635 9 HR, 12 SB | Level : A – The best player in the minors, and a man-child looking to replace Matt Wieters as the prospect Chuck Norris. There’s nothing Bo can’t do. ETA: 2019

24. Francis Martes, RHP Astros | Age: 21 | 32.1 IP, 38 K’s, 5.29 ERA, 2.10 WHIP | Level : MLB – He’s actually been better in the majors than he was at AAA. Needs to fix his command, but the ace stuff is there. Young enough that he should be able to harness his wildness. ETA: 2017

25. Dominic Smith, 1B Mets | Age: 22 | .324/.379/.469 8 HR, 0 SB | Level : AAA – A ready made .300 hitter for the Mets starting next season. Debates rage over the power ceiling, but at least 20 homer pop is there IMO. ETA 2018

26. Scott Kingery, 2B Phillies | Age: 23 | .314/.374/.622 21 HR, 20 SB | Level : AAA – If you think he should be higher than Senzel you’re as awesome as I am. Look at what he’s doing at AAA already. Scottie got launch-angle revolutionized and now he’s hitting for power like Eric Thames in Korea. The flyball revolution feels like fantasy baseball’s summer of love. Turn on, tune in, launch out. ETA: 2017

27. Juan Soto, OF Nationals | Age: 18 | .360/.427/.523 3 HR, 1 SB | Level : A – If not for an ankle injury in early May, Soto might be in the Top 15 on this list. We’ve only got 23 games of full season ball to go on, but he walked more than he struck out, and flashed some of his raw power. A long ways away from Washington, but he projects similar to Jimenez or Devers as a middle of the order bat. ETA: 2020

28. Walker Buehler, RHP Dodgers | Age: 22 | 57.1 IP, 78 K’s, 2.35 ERA, 0.98 WHIP | Level : AA – Could quite possibly be the top pitching prospect in the minors. The stuff is real, and the possibility of three plus pitches with elite control, and pitchability is what you’re banking on. The only thing keeping him out of the top 20 is the durability concerns. Yes, I know I ranked Alex Reyes in the top 10. Yes, I know he’s not pitching. ETA: 2018

29. Nick Senzel, 3B Reds | Age: 22 | .295/.363/.454 4 HR, 9 SB | Level : AA – So far it has not been great at AA, (5/25, 1 XBH) but I’d be willing to bet he settles in at the level. Good hit tool more power than his home run totals show, and more speed than you expect. I view Senzel’s long term ceiling very similar to Alex Bregman’s. Fringe top 10 3B with a little more average than power help. ETA: 2018

30. Rhys Hoskins, 1B Phillies | Age: 24 | .304/.399/.604 19 HR, 2 SB | Level : AAA – There’s only so long Tommy Joseph can hold him down. He’s a plus hit tool, low strikeout, plus power player. Philly is going to have a wave of talent over the next three years. ETA: 2017

31. Michael Kopech, RHP White Sox | Age: 21 | 75 IP, 97 K’s, 3.72 ERA, 1.33 WHIP | Level : AA – The other piece in the Chris Sale trade, Kopech brings some of the nastiest stuff in the minors, led primarily by his triple digit heater. Needs to work on honing his secondaries and finding more of the strike zone. Ace upside. ETA: 2018

32. Ryan McMahon, 3B Rockies | Age: 22 | .366/.416/.611 13 HR, 11 SB | Level : AAA – The rebound of 2017, McMahon is one injury to Mark Reynolds away from a shot at an everyday gig in Denver. I’m all in on McMahon once again after dropping him outside the Top 100. Buy! ETA: 2017

33. Kevin Maitan, SS Braves | Age: 17 | Has Not Played Yet | Level : Rookie – The top international signing from last year’s class, we’ve all had to wait for his GCL debut due to an injury. Elite hitter at a young age, draws comparisons to all-time greats from scouts. ETA: 2020

34. Mike Soroka, RHP Braves | Age: 19 | 88.2 IP, 72 K’s, 2.23 ERA, 1.06 WHIP | Level : AA – Sure the big righty doesn’t have the through the roof K per numbers of most top fantasy pitching prospects. What he does offer is elite ratios, and pitchability, and the frame to rack up the innings. He’s sort of a Michael Fulmer, safe, steady, consistent. ETA: 2018

35. Anderson Espinoza, RHP Padres | Age:19 | Has Not Pitched | Level : A – There’s some worry with the forearm tightness, but he’s throwing, and hoping to ramp up for a late July return. Elite upside, and unique pitchability, health is now a concern, ETA: 2020

36. Harrison Bader, OF Cardinals | Age: 23 | .293/.349/.496 13 HR, 4 SB | Level : AAA – The centerfielder on the “When are they FINALLY getting called up” All Stars. Never going to be an on base machine, but he should provide 25 homers and a .280 average in his peak years. ETA: 2017

37. Tyler O’Neill, OF Mariners | Age: 22 | .229/.312/.426 11 HR, 7 SB | Level : AAA – If you invested in O’neill on my advice, I have a message for you, “Hold Tight!”. He started the season rough, but has adjusted to AAA, and finished June with an OPS of .863, driven by 6 homers in the month. ETA: 2018

38. Christin Stewart, OF Tigers | Age: 23 | .280/.357/.553 18 HR, 3 SB | Level : AA – One of the elite power hitters in the minors, Stewart is a future bat first leftfielder or DH. He reminds me of Khris Davis, if you’re looking for a good comp skills wise. Has the approach to be more of an asset than Davis in OBP and points leagues, worth adding in dynasty. ETA: 2018

39. Kolby Allard, LHP Braves | Age: 19 | 80 IP, 64 K’s, 2.93 ERA, 1.29 WHIP | Level : AA – The other advanced young Braves arm in AA, Allard is the higher ceiling prospect between he and teammate Mike Soroka. The young lefty has one of the best curveballs in the minors, and is the highest rated lefthanded starter on this list. ETA: 2019

40. Hunter Greene, RHP Reds | Age: 17 | Has Not Played | Level : N/A – The second pick in the draft, and by most measures the top talent overall, Greene was the best right-handed prep pitching prospect in a decade, and a first round talent at shortstop. Looks like he’ll play both ways, at least to start. My guess is he focuses on pitching full time as early as 2018. ETA: 2020

41. Luis Robert, OF White Sox | Age: 19 | .277/.500/.429 1 HR, 7 SB | Level : DSL – I’m taking a leap of faith here, some of his Dominican Summer League numbers are legit, but I’d like to see more power. We were promised another raw 5 tool stud in the mold of Moncada and other hyped up Cubans. The hype is the worry tho… ETA: 2020

42. Jesus Sanchez, OF Rays | Age: 19 | .288/.339/.477 9 HR, 4 SB | Level : A – The power hitting outfielder has taken well to his first taste of full-season ball. A middle of the order bat like Eloy, Devers, and Soto. ETA: 2019

43. Royce Lewis, SS Twins | Age: 18 | .313/.389/.625 1 HR, 1 SB | Level : Rookie – Four games into his professional career and the first overall selection in June’s draft looks like a natural, homering in his first at bat. The entire 5 category package is here. ETA: 2020

44. Kyle Lewis, OF Mariners | Age: 21 | .000/.250/.000 0 HR, 0 SB | Level : A+ – Only saw 4 plate appearances before the knee acted up. Hopefully he can rest, and heal up. Because if Lewis can get back to 100% he’s an elite prospect. ETA: 2019

45. Jack Flaherty, RHP Cardinals | Age: 21 | 90.1 IP, 93 K’s, 2.29 ERA, 1.02 WHIP | Level : AAA – When posed with the question of who I prefer Flaherty or Weaver? I take the former 10 times out of 10. Mostly because Flaherty offers a higher floor with less injury worry. At just 21 he’s on the cusp of the big leagues, and despite a recent dust up or two in AAA possesses a high floor. Looks like a potential boost in ratios, without being a drag in strikeouts. ETA: 2017

46. Mitch Keller, RHP Pirates | Age: 21 | 48 IP, 48, K’s, 2.44 ERA, 0.83 WHIP | Level : A+ – The ultimate in future safe pitching prospects complete with a plus fastball and plus curveball. If you order now we’ll throw in plus plus command. Call while supplies last!!! ETA: 2019

47. Luis Urias, 2B/SS Padres | Age: 20 | .310/.408/.412 2 HR, 6 SB | Level : AA – The good news, he’s a 20 year old hitting .310 in AA his first time through the level. The bad news, with 2 homers, and 6 steals the worry is an empty average. His contact is so elite I’m willing to bet the counting stats in the majors are better than what we’ve seen in the minors. ETA: 2018

48. Willy Adames, SS Rays | Age: 21 | .274/.367/.418 5 HR, 5 SB | Level : AAA – After starting out ice cold through April and May, Adames was scorching hot in June slugging his way to a .999 OPS for the month. Looks to be blocked at the major league level, at least till rosters expand. ETA: 2018

49. Shed Long, 2B Reds | Age: 21 | .296/.368/.509 13 HR, 6 SB | Level : AA – A very good bat that offers a little bit of everything in the fantasy department. One of the more unheralded stars in the minors at the moment. Could push Jose Peraza back to short. ETA: 2018

50. Mickey Moniak, OF Phillies | Age: 19 | .271/.322/.396 3 HR, 7 SB | Level : A – The first full season in proball hasn’t been great, but he hasn’t been awful. The power is still mostly projection, and you’d like to see him run more, but I’m buying into the projection. ETA: 2020

51. A.J. Puk, LHP Athletics | Age: 22 | 68.1 IP, 106 K’s, 4.21 ERA, 1.16 WHIP| Level : AA – Puk entered 2017 in better physical shape than ever before, and with a new pitch, a reworked curveball. With two plus pitches already, in his mid-90’s fastball, and low 80’s slider, the curve offers an additonal average offspeed pitch to go along with his changeup. Big lefty with downhill plane, and ace upside. ETA: 2018

52. Sixto Sanchez, RHP Phillies | Age: 18 | 45.1 IP, 46 K’s, 2.98 ERA, 0.84 WHIP | Level : A – A four pitch arsenal with plus command, the “Ralph Special” small righty has been a huge breakthrough this year, and is on the cusp of being considered amongst the elite prospect arms. ETA: 2020

53. Dylan Cease, RHP Cubs | Age: 21 | 47.1 IP, 71 K’s, 2.47 ERA, 1.16 WHIP | Level : A – The top arm in the Cubs system is a high risk/high reward type. The stuff is there, but the control is a worry, not to mention a longer than ideal injury history. Ace upside tho… ETA: 2019

54. Fernando Tatis Jr., SS Padres | Age: 18 | .259/.348/.440 11 HR, 14 SB | Level : A – What was Kenny Williams smoking when he traded Tatis for James Shields? Should move off short, but sort of a poor man’s Kevin Maitan with a similar ceiling. ETA: 2020

55. Thomas Szapucki, LHP Mets | Age: 21 | 28.1 IP, 26 K’s, 2.86 ERA, 1.16 WHIP | Level : A+ – Oft-injured lefty, with nasty swing and miss stuff. Since returning to action in early June he’s been very good. Front of the rotation upside if he can stay healthy. How Metsa! ETA: 2019

56. Josh Hader, LHP Brewers | Age: 23 | 52 IP, 51 K’s, 5.37 ERA, 1.54 WHIP | Level : MLB – Though it’s all been in relief, Hader has yet to allow a run through 7 appearances, and 9.1 innings pitched at the big league level. There’s a chance he sees a start or two with Chase Anderson out. He’s down in the ranks, but there’s still hope. ETA: 2017

57. Michael Chavis, 3B Red Sox | Age: 21 | .310/.375/.635 20 HR, 1 SB | Level : AA – Classic power hitting corner infielder, offseason adjustments have led to a big jump forward. ETA: 2018

58. Jay Groome, LHP Red Sox | Age: 18 | 12.1 IP, 15 K’s, 8.03 ERA, 1.62 WHIP | Level : A – After a disastrous first start back in April, where he gave up 9 earned runs in an inning and a third before exiting with a back injury. Since returning things have been great in his starts with Lowell, the Red Sox short season New York-Penn League affiliate. That’s no hyperbole either Groome has been lights out (1.64 ERA, 0.91 WHIP, 31.8% K%), high risk/high reward spec. ETA: 2020

59. Taylor Trammell, OF Reds | Age: 19 | .272/.347/.448 6 HR, 20 SB | Level : A – Super athlete with plus plus speed, plus raw power, and a better than advertised hit tool. I love the high ceiling power/speed guys. ETA: 2019

60. Luke Weaver, RHP Cardinals | Age: 23 | 56 IP, 60 K’s, 1.93 ERA, 0.96 WHIP | Level : AAA – It’s not a matter of if, but when Weaver is recalled to St. Louis. The questions regarding his health linger, but his unique mix of elite control, and swinging strikes is rare. He’s dinged mostly for the inability to stay healthy. ETA: 2017

61. Alex Verdugo, OF Dodgers | Age: 21 | .352/.420/.467 3 HR, 8 SB | Level : AAA – I flip-flop on Verdugo, but one thing is true, he knows how to put the bat on the ball. That could make him a solid Adam Eaton type as part of an up and coming young Dodgers core. ETA: 2017

62. Brandon Marsh, OF Angels | Age: 19 | .500/.545/.833 1 HR, 4 SB | Level : Rookie – A week and a half in, and Marsh is the runaway breakout of short season ball. The former high school football star, is flashing massive 5 category upside, and can still be had off of waivers in many leagues. ETA: 2020

63. Nick Gordon, SS Twins | Age: 21 | .308/.379/.481 6 HR, 8 SB | Level : AA – Gordon is nothing like his older brother Dee. He’s more of hard contact before speed hitter, with a mid-teen power ceiling. In peak should have similar production to Dustin Perdoia. ETA: 2018

64. Ryan Mountcastle, SS Orioles | Age: 20 | .313/.340/.548 14 HR, 6 SB | Level : A+ – Excellent pure power bat, with solid contact over approach profile. Having a breakout season in Frederick. ETA: 2019

65. Kyle Wright, RHP Braves | Age: 21 | Has Not Played Yet | Level : Rookie – The Braves top choice in the draft was the top college starter on most boards, and gives them a quick to the majors frontline starter with ace upside. ETA: 2018

66. Estevan Florial, OF Yankees | Age: 19 | .305/.387/.511 10 HR, 13 SB | Level : A – My prospect crush, and I couldn’t be selling him harder. The highest ceiling in the Yankees farm system, if it all clicks we’re talking fantasy superstardom. ETA: 2019

67. Colton Welker, 3B Rockies | Age: 19 | .365/.409/.532 6 HR, 5 SB | Level : A – Prior to hitting the DL Welker was putting up monster numbers in Asheville. Though he has some steals this season, long term those should disappear as he grows into his raw power potential. Contact heavy, power bat in Coors, yes please! ETA: 2020

68. Josh Naylor, 1B Padres | Age: 20 | .295/.362/.455 8 HR, 7 SB | Level : A+ – I’ve always been a fan of Josh Naylor, and he’s really enjoyed a breakout of sorts in 2017. The power is coming along after being a big question mark. ETA: 2019

69. Erick Fedde, RHP Nationals | Age: 24 | 65.2 IP, 61 K’s, 3.15 ERA, 1.14 WHIP | Level : AAA – Been working out of the pen in AAA, wouldn’t surprise me to see him come up in an attempt to stabilize the back end of games. Will he close? I don’t know, but I still see him as a good mid-rotation starter long term. ETA: 2017

70. Blake Rutherford, OF Yankees | Age: 20 | .270/.340/.374 1 HR, 9 SB | Level : A – The Yankees first rounder in 2016, Rutherford hasn’t been bad for his first taste of full season ball, it’s just…where’s the power? ETA: 2020

71. Leody Taveras, OF Rangers | Age: 18 | .267/.320/.380 5 HR, 12 SB | Level : A – Take the numbers with a grain of salt, this is an advanced player for an 18 year old in full season ball. You’re dreaming on a 5 category kid in Leody ETA: 2020

72. Corey Ray, OF Brewers | Age: 22 | .251/.327/.389 4 HR, 18 SB | Level : A+ – I’d be lying if I didn’t say I was concerned by the lack of power, cause it’s a huge red flag. Still going to believe the talent is there, but it dropped him outside my top 50. ETA: 2018

73. Jordon Adell, OF Angels | Age: 18 | Has Not Played Yet | Level : Rookie – One of my favorite bats from this year’s draft. Elite bat speed, plus plus raw power, speed, but questions about his hit tool. Much to prove over the next year plus for Adell. ETA: 2020

74. Isan Diaz, 2B/SS Brewers | Age: 21 | .216/.317/.375 9 HR, 7 SB | Level : A+ – Three outcome hitter, who’s stock has diminished due to the swing and miss issues. If he can get his batting average above .260, he could be a fantasy star. ETA: 2019

75. Forrest Whitley, RHP Astros | Age: 19 | 46.1 IP, 67 K’s, 2.91 ERA, 1.36 WHIP | Level : A – The 6’7 Whitley looks like a future front of the rotation arm in the making. ETA: 2020

76. Adam Haseley, OF Phillies | Age: 21 | .550/.625/.750 0 HR, 2 SB | Level : Rookie – Has gotten right to work in his first 5 games of pro-ball. Across the board ability is what you’re getting from Haseley, could be one of the first players to reach the majors. ETA: 2019

77. Pavin Smith, 1B Diamondbacks | Age: 21 | .320/.370/.360 0 HR, 0 SB | Level : Rookie – One of the more advanced college bats of the class, some hit tool over power concerns. ETA: 2019

78. Chance Adams, RHP Yankees | Age: 22 | 82.2 IP, 84 K’s, 2.27 ERA, 0.98 WHIP | Level : AAA – The best pitcher in the minors this year, only a matter of time till he gets his shot in the Bronx. Mid-rotation upside with solid K numbers. ETA: 2017

79. JP Crawford, SS Phillies | Age: 22 | .207/.324/.291 2 HR, 2 SB | Level : AAA – The once elite prospect is holding onto his top 100 status by a thread. Needs a strong second half. ETA: 2018

80. Nick Neidert, RHP Mariners | Age: 20 | 87.1 IP, 92 K’s, 3.09 ERA, 1.05 WHIP | Level : A+ – High floor pitching prospect flashing more upside than anticipated. Gets tons of Tim Hudson comps, and the shoe fits. ETA: 2019

81. Austin Beck, OF Athletics | Age: 18 | .000/.111/.000 0 HR, 0 SB | Level : Rookie – Ignore the rookie ball numbers, Beck owned arguably the highest ceiling in the 2017 draft. Elite bat speed, raw power, and speed ETA: 2020

82. Lucas Giolito, RHP White Sox | Age: 22 | 79.2 IP, 82 K’s, 4.86 ERA, 1.43 WHIP | Level : AAA – It’s been a crazy year for Giolito’s prospect status, but it seems to have stabilized here at the back end of the Top 100. Number two to mid-rotation upside at this point. ETA: 2017

83. Franklin Perez, RHP Astros | Age: 19 | 46 IP, 44 K’s, 2.54 ERA, 0.76 WHIP | Level : A+ – Advanced teenage starter, looks ready for AA and he doesn’t turn 20 until December. ETA: 2019

84. Jorge Ona, OF Padres | Age: 20 | .275/.349/.402 7 HR, 3 SB | Level : A – Seems to be shaking the rust off after an extended absence as he defected from Cuba. High risk/high reward, middle of the order upside. ETA: 2020

85. Keston Hiura, 2B Brewers | Age: 20 | .571/.600/1.000 1 HR, 0 SB | Level : Rookie – The most advanced college bat in the class according to some, and the numbers back it. There’s contact, approach, and power, there’s also plenty of question marks with health. Riskier than he should be. ETA: 2018

86. Miguel Andujar, 3B Yankees | Age: 22 | .314/.348/.496 8 HR, 2 SB | Level : AAA – Massive raw power, and a grip it and rip it approach at the plate. We saw what he can do in his MLB Debut this week. There’s more where that came from. ETA: 2017

87. Stephen Gonsalves, LHP Twins | Age: 22 | 48 IP, 56 K’s, 2.63 ERA, 0.85 WHIP | Level : AA – One of the most underrated arms in the minors. Gonsalves offers safety and upside in his profile and skill set, the problem is there’s some real injury concern. If he can stay healthy he might make an excellent one – two with Jose Berrios. ETA: 2018

88. Adrian Morejon, LHP Padres | Age: 18 | 13 IP, 12 K’s, 4.15 ERA, 1.15 WHIP | Level : Rookie – One of the jewels of San Diego’s 2016 July 2 class, ace level upside, with an arsenal that features two different changeups. ETA: 2021

89. Yordan Alvarez, 1B Astros | Age: 20 | .338/.447/.613 10 HR, 2 SB | Level : A+ – After destroying low A, the 20 year old Cuban was promoted to high A Buies Creek. He’s still looking to get settled at the level, but we’re talking about an elite power bat at an advanced level for his age. Keep an eye on Alvarez, could skyrocket up the ranks. ETA: 2020

90. Rowdy Tellez, 1B Blue Jays | Age: 22 | .203/.275/.332 6 HR, 3 SB | Level : AAA – Awful year so far from Rowdy, but I’m keeping the faith that he can turn a corner. I’ve been burned by overweight first base only prospects before tho… Looking at you Vogelbach. ETA: 2018

91. Luiz Gohara, LHP Braves | Age: 20 | 63 IP, 69 K’s, 2.57 ERA, 1.17 WHIP | Level : AA – The third starter from the star-studded Mississippi Braves rotation, less safety than Allard or Soroka, Gohara might possesses the highest ceiling. Draws comps to CC Sabathia. ETA: 2019

92. Brendan McKay, LHP/1B Rays | Age: 21 | Has Not Played Yet | Level : N/A – Where will he end up? Will he be a two-way player in the majors? Is he a star on either side? So many questions with McKay. ETA: 2019

93. Zack Collins, C White Sox | Age: 22 | .208/.364/.398 10 HR, 0 SB | Level : A+ -There’s no way around the disappointment that is Collins’ 2017 season. Catchers take longer sure, but we were banking on an advanced bat. Where’s it at? ETA: 2019

94. Bobby Bradley, 1B Indians | Age: 21 | .256/.351/.484 14 HR, 2 SB | Level : AA – Another member of Cleveland’s up and coming core. Elite power, and swing and miss concerns, earns him the Chris Carter comp. ETA: 2019

95. Yadier Alvarez, RHP Dodgers | Age: 21 | 51.2 IP, 54 K’s, 5.05, 1.39 WHIP | Level : A+ – Reports of a straight fastball have tarnished Yadier’s once promising upside. Still a top 100 arm for me. Hold, or try and buy low, there’s a high end starter in there somewhere. ETA: 2020

96. Randy Arozarena, OF Cardinals | Age: 22 | .274/.331/.467 8 HR, 10 SB | Level : AA – 2016 International signing with power, speed, and contact upside. Could see the majors late this season, or some time over the summer of 2018. ETA: 2018

97. Alex Jackson, C Braves | Age: 21 | .274/.346/.500 10 HR, 0 SB | Level : A+ – Once a highly touted high school bat, a change of scenery, and move back behind the plate have made him fantasy relevant once again. ETA: 2020

98. Edwin Rios, 3B Dodgers | Age: 23 | .310/.352/.531 15 HR, 1 SB | Level : AA – What does Rios have to do to earn your respect? All he does is hit! ETA: 2018

99. Heath Quinn, OF Giants | Age: 22 | .287/.351/.533 8 HR, 0 SB | Level : A+ – One of the most powerful bats in the minors, Quinn’s had trouble staying healthy in 2017. ETA: 2019

100. Ian Anderson, RHP Braves | Age: 19 | 65.1 IP, 83 K’s, 3.72 ERA, 1.39 WHIP | Level: A – The third overall pick in 2016’s draft has flashed a greater ability to miss bats than anticipated, and that’s the best possible news for his fantasy owners. The Braves have the luxury of taking it slow with Anderson. ETA: 2020

Here’s the top 200 prospects for 2017 fantasy baseball — 101 thru 200.
