Midseason Top 100 MLB Prospect Rankings Analysis (41-50)

Jul 14

Posted by Dynasty_Digest

Below you can find my analysis for the prospects ranked between 41-50 for the 2016 midseason top prospect list. If you want to see the full top 100 list, please visit the following link: SEE THE TOP 100 PROSPECT RANKINGS. I will be posting daily analysis of every player listed in the top 100, so please follow my blog and other social media for updates.

CLICK HERE TO SEE THE ANALYSIS OF THE PROSPECTS RANKED 51-60

Jason Groome (BOS, 17 Years Old, LHP): Well, this ranking won’t mean anything if the Red Sox don’t sign Groome after drafting him 12th overall in the 2016 MLB Draft. The Sox and Groome are still in negotiations, but nothing as been finalized yet. At only 17 years old, Groome is incredibly advanced on the mound. He throws a mid-90’s fastball from the left-side, which has great late movement. He also shows a great feel for his breaking ball and changeup. To go along with his great repertoire, Groome has showed great command for a kid his age. Many people expected Groome to go first overall in the draft, but he started to trend downwards due to maturity questions and sign-ability issues. If the Red Sox sign Groome, he has the upside of a frontline starter.

ALL Time Tommy Surgeries List: Updated For 2015 Players

Nov 8

Posted by Jonathan Hacohen

Holland took over Closer duties during the 2012 season – once Jonathan Broxton was traded to the Cincinnati Reds. He was 7 – 4, with a 2.96 ERA – with 16 Saves. He was dominate until he went down with a UCL tear this season.

The epic is going absolutely nowhere fast, and we have seen a dramatic spike in the last decade of surgeries. We have a dedicated page to the list here.

There have been several scares with some big name pitchers on 9 figure salaries, with Masahiro Tanaka and Clayton Kershaw in recent years, but there will come a day when a guy goes down making $25 MIL plus per year.

You could say that Yu Darvish was heading towards an astronomical payday before his setback this season.

2015 Surgeries (29)

Greg Holland, Royals, Oct.2

Aaron Barrett, Nationals, Sept.3

Nathan Adcock, Reds

Jason Vargas, Royals, Aug.1

Jack Leathersich, Mets, July.30

Don Kelly, Marlins, July.1: OF

Sergio Santos, Blue Jays, July.1

Brandon Workman, Red Sox, June.15

Jarrod Parker, A’s – Honorable mention (3rd TJ Surgery not to occur, but he is out indefinitely after was revealed he had a tear in his elbow – recovering from 2nd TJ Surgery from Mar, 2014 in Minor League rehabilitation earlier in the month.) Still having an elbow surgery, just not the Tommy John operation. Read the rest of this entry →

Sully Baseball Daily Podcast – July 15, 2014

Posted by Paul Francis Sullivan

Four Seam Images – AP

The All Star Game is tonight, and if you want your team to win the World Series and clinch at home, maybe you should root for the other league tonight.

Also the Astros and first round pick Brady Aiken are locking antlers. Both sides should come to their senses.

It is a present and potential All Star episode of The Sully Baseball Daily Podcast.

Yoenis Cespedes and Todd Frazier used the Home Run Derby to add to their totals for Who Owns Baseball?

2014 MLB Rule IV Mock Draft (Top 27 Selections Predicted)

The only major professional sports league that does their entry draft during the season is major league baseball

There is plenty of talent available this year especially in the high school ranks.

The draft is the best way to build a franchise and position yourself in a position for long term success. Jim Callis in 2005 got the first 18 picks right … hopefully one day I will do the same. Read the rest of this entry →
