Keith Law's Top 100 Prospect List: Rays Top the Charts

Every year a variety of prospect lists come out, and every year the rest of us try to sort out exactly what they mean. Some evaluators are higher on certain players than others, and so instead of treating any one list as gospel, it's best to take a look at what everyone is saying and synthesize the information as much as possible.

That said, Keith Law is a highly regarded analyst and his prospect lists certainly merits consideration. He just released his Top 100 prospect list today, including Top 10 rankings for each team. According to his list, the Rays have eight out of the top 100 prospects in baseball: Jeremy Hellickson, Matt Moore, Desmond Jennings, Chris Archer, Hak-Ju Lee, Alex Torres, Alex Colome, and Jake McGee. That's the most of any team in baseball, although the Blue Jays are right behind with seven.

The article is Insider only, so I'm hesitant to include more information from it here. Instead, here's a brief look at how Law's Top 10 list for the Rays compares with Baseball America's list:
