Overall Top 210 Prospects (October 2021)

Before getting to our list of top baseball prospects, here are a few notes on its compilation:

26 of our staff submitted their own personal top 100 prospects rankings, leaning fantasy baseball over real-life.

Prospect eligibility is based only on number of At Bats (130 or less) or Innings Pitched (50 or less). We did not factor in service time, which usually does not have much difference between our lists and Major League Baseball eligibility. We are sticking with using only AB/IP to determine prospect eligibility as this is what many dynasty/fantasy leagues will use heading into 2022.

The # of Lists column tells you how many of our 26 contributors included that player on their top 100 list. The Highest and Lowest columns tell you the range of rankings for that player; one note about the Lowest column: it is the lowest ranking for that player in a top 100 list. You should refer to the # of Lists column to see if the player went unranked by one or more contributors.

The lists were combined to generate an aggregated list of prospects (in this case, 210 individual players). To determine the final ranking, prospects were given points (5th column) relative to their position in each top 100 list (e.g., 1st place = 100 points and 100th place = 1 point). In the case of a tie in aggregated points, the player ranked on more lists is ranked higher. If there’s a tie in points AND players are ranked on the same number of personal Top 100 lists, then they will retain the same rank. For example, both Miguel Yajure and Felix Valerio were ranked on two lists, each at the same number, so they have the same ranking (#158) and points, and the next player is #160.

If you’re interested in seeing all of the 26 different Top 100 lists, or what rank one of the correspondents gave to a specific player, the rankings spreadsheet can be viewed here.
