BA's Top Prospect List

Baseball America has just posted its top prospect list for the PBC. None of the names are new or unexpected, but what strikes me is that there's some depth here. For example, Daniel McCutchen is listed as the #9 prospect, and BA comments that he has good control of three pitches, of which the fastball and hard curve are pretty good. He needs to improve command, but that's hardly unusual among young pitchers. 

The comments about these 10 are pretty positive, and the negatives are not very damning. Even more positive, in my view, is the fact that there are some promising players who don't make the top 10.

John Perrotto also voices a thought that I've been mulling over: Neil Walker is a terrific athlete with a strong arm. He could certainly be a candidate for right field if need be.
