Here is my current take on the Top 100 MLB prospects for 2019.



The list is tilted toward fantasy value but with some “real baseball” factors included. Rankings are based on sabermetric analysis as well as subjective factors including scouting reports, video, in-person observations (when possible), word of mouth and my own intuition and judgment. A list based entirely on “real baseball” factors or industry reputation would look rather different.



Like all prospect lists, this is a moving target. Your mileage may vary on any particular player depending on your time horizon and fantasy farm context.



1) Vladimir Guerrero Jr., 3B, Toronto Blue Jays, (Grade A): Very rare combination of bat speed, raw power, plate discipline and general polish belies his age; annihilated Double-A and Triple-A (.381/.437/.636) and just 19 years old; defense at third base isn’t terrible, in my opinion; arm works, but he may wind up at first base eventually...
