We will be rolling out our post-2011 top 30 prospects very soon, but I wanted to at least send a tease. We have a great team of people that cover the Padres minor league teams on Friarhood.com and we all have different opinions on what propects rank where. Peter Friberg has written on the Padres minor leagues for eight seasons now and he will be rolling out his top 30 very soon. With that said, I twisted Peter's arm to give me a top 10. Check it out and feel free to give your feedback. He just wanted me to mention, this is not the final list and it continues to be a work in progress.
