One way or another, there will be prospects playing baseball this season. They may be doing so under a few nonexistent major-league days or weeks, but the plan appears to be that the minors go on — lockout or no lockout. With that in mind and the calendar finally turning to January, we have something to talk about here at Covering the Corner: top prospect voting.
The annual top prospect vote is one of my favorite things we do every offseason, and this year should provide some excellent debates all the way from one through 20. And, unlike last year, we once again have a full year’s worth of minor-league games to contextualize these potential future stars.
