July 29, 201016 yr Where do you guys find the grades on these guys like C, C+, etc. i have been looking for it and cant find it anywhere but I have some friends in the minors (no marlins) that I wanted to check up on. Also, while were on the topic, who are our next legit prospects besides Dominguez and maybe Skipworth? We just brought up a huge portion of our farm system with Coghlan, Logan, Stanton, Gaby, etc. Thanks.

Just look up Florida Marlins top prospects on google and you should find scouting reports with grades.
July 29, 201016 yr Next wave of prospects include some relievers in the upper minors like Jose Ceda, Ryan Tucker, and Jhan Marinez, and some starting pitchers in A-ball like Brad Hand.
July 29, 201016 yr Or search out some of Lou's posts in the Minor League Forum such as monthly roundups as they give an indication of who the future top guys are
July 29, 201016 yr The grades come from John Sickel's system. You can find his ratings at http://www.minorleagueball.com/ Generallys peaking, A(+/-) = stud prospect (The Stanton's of the world), B(+/-) = Should at least be a regular and has upside (Dominguez of the world), C+ = Either potential bench bats who might be able to start if things go right, or guys with good potential but no production so far in the pro careers, C = basically everyone else. As far as other prospects, strictly looking at B- and higher, hitting wise there's our first round draft pick this year (Christian Yelich) but his a long way from being away and nothing else besides Dominguez/Skipworth. Pitching wise, Mystik mentioned the RPs, on the SP side there's Brad Hand, Chad James, Edgar Olmos, and Rob Rasmussen (Hand in A+, other three in A, and all lefties).
