Baseball America released their Reds top 10 prospect list and their list of best tools in the systen.
1. Yonder Alosoo, 1b 2. Todd Frazier, ss/1b/3b 3. Drew Stubbs, of 4. Chris Valaika, ss 5. Yorman Rodriguez, of 6. Kyle Lotzkar, rhp 7. Neftali Soto, 3b 8. Juan Francisco, 3b 9. Juan Duran, of 10. Devin Mesoraco, c
Pretty good list if you ask me, which I'm sure you would if I was near you. "Yonder Alosoo" as they name him is the obvious number 1 along with Todd Frazier being the obvious number 2 guy. I really will be interested in the seasons Soto, Duran, and Rodriguez have next year.
As for the tools list
Best Hitter for Average Yonder Alonso Best Power Hitter Juan Francisco Best Strike-Zone Discipline Yonder Alonso Fastest Baserunner Theodis Bowe Best Athlete Yorman Rodriguez Best Fastball Josh Roenicke Best Curveball Kyle Lotzkar Best Slider Jordan Smith Best Changeup Ramon Ramirez Best Control Robert Manuel Best Defensive Catcher Ryan Hannigan Best Defensive Infielder Zach Cozart Best Infield Arm Juan Francisco Best Defensive Outfielder Drew Stubbs Best Outfield Arm Yorman Rodriguez
Here is the 2008 list if you feel like comparing the two rankings.
