Cozart and Boxberger are the only 2 names I recognize.
The rest of them, we could play a game "Reds prospect or RedsZone poster?" and I doubt I'd get half the prospects correct.
So, the question is do I not know Reds prospects, or do the Reds just not have any noteworthy prospects?
.... lil of A.... lil of B...
Nevermind.

All my posts are my opinion - just like yours are. If I forget to state it and you're too dense to see the obvious, look here!
After about #9 it's going to get pretty crazy...

Can we get Carlos Mendez on the next ballot?
Can I ask why a now 23 year old with no time above Dayton and never a season over a .752 OPS should be added while we are still in the Top 10? He doesn't have any big tools, his production was so-so as a 22 year old in Dayton.... I just don't see why he should be on the ballot at #8. He isn't in my Top 50 and I bet that is the same for a lot of others as well.
Does Ramon Ramirez still qualify for this list or has he graduated at this point? Not that I would put him at 7 but I think I would look at him soon based on the success he has had at the MLB level when called up.

I'm a 100% behind you on this. The Reds biggest need to me isn't a big bat it's guys who get on base at the top of the order. Votto is capible of driving in 125 runs, Phillips a 100, Rolen 75, Bruce 100... BUT only if the top 2 guys can get on. Stubbs and Heisey provide that and Plus Defense which helps supress runs against.
