Baseball America: Reds 2011 Prospects Among Best In Baseball

Perhaps we're not over valuing our prospects?

The Reds organization had three players make Baseball America's top twenty in their respective Triple-A leagues, more than any other team in the N.L. Central.

If you ask me to join your fantasy baseball league and I select Legolas in the first round, don't be angry at me. It's not my fault I've read up on the players and you haven't.

And then again...maybe we are (overvaluing our prospects). The author of that article....

"Doug Poe once delivered newspapers to Johnny Bench, Joe Morgan and Tony Perez, three customers who have made him a lifelong Reds fan."

I don't disagree with him, but it could be a case of homer-itis. :O)

Funny.... I counted four Reds to make the IL Top 20 with Mesoraco, Cozart, Alonso and Frazier. This is a fan article, not something from Yahoo! Sports.

You're right. Baseball America was used as a source. Crap, I misread that at the bottom.
