I\u2019ve based these rankings on a combination of various scouting reports, stats, video, and previous rankings. Having gone through each of these prospects, I believe Reds fans can and should feel some optimism about the future.\u00a0A few thoughts on several notable prospects before we dig in:<span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559685&quot;:360,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:360}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li data-leveltext=\"\uf0b7\" data-font=\"Symbol\" data-listid=\"2\" data-aria-posinset=\"1\" data-aria-level=\"1\"><b>Nick\u00a0<\/b><b>Senzel<\/b>, while out for the year with a torn ligament in his thumb, stays atop the rankings.

My feeling at this point is that he has real potential to be a 2 or 3 starter, if he can continue developing his slider, or add some movement to his fastball. At worst, I see him being closer material, easily.<\/li>\n<li data-leveltext=\"\uf0b7\" data-font=\"Symbol\" data-listid=\"2\" data-aria-posinset=\"3\" data-aria-level=\"1\"><b><a href=\"https:\/\/www.baseball-reference.com\/register\/player.fcgi?id=herget000jim&amp;utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">Jimmy Herget<\/a>\u00a0<\/b>\u2013 not quite a true side-arm reliever but close enough to it; his ability to change speeds and arm slot angles makes him a formidable reliever for right-handed hitters, particularly with a deceptive change-up, but also makes him vulnerable to lefties.

In 226 at-bats in his last stint with Florida University, India racked up 21 home runs and 15 stolen bases, icing on the cake of a .350\/.497\/.717 slash line. Granted, NCAA ball isn\u2019t exactly pro ball\u00a0but even in his limited time so far at A ball, he\u2019s hitting and getting on base at a nice clip (.261\/.443\/.543). Most notably, he seems to have a patient approach at the plate, as evidenced by walk rates of close to 10% during\u00a0is\u00a0first two years at Florida, then 20% in A-ball. As of July 26 was promoted to Billings (Rookie ball).<\/li>\n<li data-leveltext=\"\uf0b7\" data-font=\"Symbol\" data-listid=\"2\" data-aria-posinset=\"4\" data-aria-level=\"1\"><b>Ibandel<\/b><b>\u00a0Isabel\u00a0<\/b>\u2013 the dude can crush baseballs! 28 home runs in 2017 with the Rancho\u00a0Cucamonga\u00a0Quakes (<a class=\"wpil_keyword_link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.prospects1500.com\/los-angeles-dodgers\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" title=\"Dodgers\">Dodgers<\/a> A+) and 22 this year with the Daytona Tortugas (Reds A+).
