July 3, 200521 yr Author Maverick Posted Today, 08:21 PM what is this based on? On potential and what they have done so far in their brief careers.
July 3, 200521 yr I gotta disagree majorly about Allison he was a phenominal talent coming out of HS, but he is not our #1 pitching spect
July 3, 200521 yr Author Like I said its my list and im basing it on potential and what they have done so far. What changes would you make? and don't you think a healthy Jeff Allison and drug free Allison (Hope he stays that way) will put up better # than any of our pitching prospects?

I added the draft picks cause they deserve to be there over guys like Bostick, Mobley, etc who might have good # but have fringe to below average stuff. I agree Allison # wheren't that impressive but I don't think he was in the best of shape either since he hadn't been really working or pitching to batters in almost 2 years and almost died cause of an overdose.

Heck some of the guys on your list haven't even pitched yet. And if your list was truly based on both potential and performance Allison wouldn't even be in the top 10, because he really hasn't done anything of note in his professional career, except get himself in trouble.
