While it's nice to see that Borchard is rated high up on this list (for whatever that's really worth...), it does not escape one's attention that LTP is the ONLY Sox farmhand on this list--even the stinkin' Cubs have two! That said, being on this list and a $1.75 will get Sox fans a grande coffee o' the day at the local Starbuck's....

The part I like is seeing the Twins with two highly rated prospects. That means a cheapass like Pohlad will be less likely to keep his outfield together and they are the heart and soul of the position players and the main offensive threats.
