When you combine this one with the Baseball America one, and you consider all the guys who have recently graduated for the Bucs, you'd be hardpressed to argue against them as the best farm system. Also, all those 1st rounders don't hurt.

Cubs have clearly taken a backseat for the time being, but with a lot of lower level talent that has yet to really take off, and an outrageous amount of draft picks themselves, you'd be foolish to think they can't be in the #1 spot this time next year.


One of the systems, I'd like to give some extra attention, who isn't in the top 3, is Royals, nevermind just the talent he's got named here. Particularly, Glasnow is outrageous with his size, fastball and that breaking ball when it's on point is unreal. But also, a lot like the Cubs, they've got themselves quite a stockpile of players in the lower levels that I fully expect to really take off in the next couple of years. I'd be lying if I said I didn't have my doubts about their owner when he first joined, but he has fully turned me around on that front, as now I expect him to be one of, if not THE, toughest competition I'll be facing in the next few years in the American League, I think he was one of the unnoticed great aspects of that re-allignment of sorts awhile back as he gives the American League yet another, very strong, young team who's on the rise.
