Well the MLB unveiled it's top prospects this year and they expanded the countdown from 50 to 100 with Rays lefty Matt Moore number 1 overall, they also had another pitcher Helickson at number 2 last year. Last year's number 1 prospect Mike Trout is at number 3 this year, another interesting note is that the Pirates have 2 pitchers in the top 11 which will make for an exciting future in Pittsburgh. Now as for the Braves: We have 5 prospects on this list, Christian Bethancourt (91), Andrelton Simmons (65), Randall Delgado (42), Arodys Vizcaino (36), and the Braves' list is topped off by Julio Teheran (4) who's the top Right handed prospect.

Agreed, I'm thinking it'll be Vizcaino, Delgado, and Teheran again; they say in Vizcaino's scouting report that he has the stuff to be a number 2 pitcher but his durability could limit him to a career in the bullpen which would be a shame.
