John Sickels' Top 20

Here it is. Analysis will come later.

2007 Top 20 Atlanta Braves Prospects

  1. Eric Campbell, 3B, Grade B+ really like his bat)
  2. Elvis Andrus, SS, Grade B+ really like his birthday, lots of development potential)
  3. Jarrod Saltalamacchia, C, Grade B (I am more worried
    about reports of excess weight gain and defensive problems in the
    Arizona Fall League more than his erratic regular season)
  4. Matt Harrison, LHP, B
  5. Brandon Jones, OF, B
  6. Joey Devine, RHP, B (he has been handled poorly but still has a good arm)
  7. Yunel Escobar, SS, B can read the comment I wrote below)
  8. Jamie Richmond, RHP, B (an aggressive grade but the numbers are great and my intuition likes him)
  9. Scott Thorman, OF-1B, B- (below 150 at-bats so he goes in the book)
  10. Chase Fontaine, SS, B-
  11. Anthony Lerew, RHP, C+
  12. Jo-Jo Reyes, LHP, C+ (nice rebound season but slumped down the stretch)
  13. Neftali Feliz, RHP, C+ (terrific arm but a long way from the majors)
  14. Kevin Gunderson, LHP, C+
  15. Kala Kaaihue, 1B, C+ (sleeper bat, watch this guy)
  16. Kris Medlen, RHP, C+
  17. Jeff Locke, LHP, C+
  18. Cory Rasmus, RHP, C+
