Pending Pinstripes Latest Posts

Sorry for the long wait for this list, but at long last, here is my preseason Top 30 Prospects list.  I excluded players who are likely to start next season in the majors (or who spent time up there last year), so guys like Dave Robertson, Phil Coke, Alfredo Aceves, and Brett Gardner are not going to be on the list.  I haven't gotten a chance to do full writeups yet for each prospect, but I figure I might as well start the discussion with a full list.  My list will include the player, their position, and the highest level they reached last season.  Enjoy, and I look forward to hearing some feedback.  For those interested, Kevin Goldstein just posted his top 11 Yankee prospects, and I may have comments in a later post.
