Ashcraft was mentioned in the "just missed" section.

Greene seems about 40 spots too low, and I’d probably have McLain in the 80-100 range. Barrero and Lodolo seem reasonable though. Same for Ashcraft (agree with “Just Missed”)
Go BLUE!!!

So with Greene's obvious low rating based on reasons RedTeamGo! laid out we basically have 3 top 20 prospects in all of MLB. Add in Ashcraft, McLain, and a few of our projects turning out and we're looking really good over the next 5-7 years.

Who'd have thought Barrero would be a top 20 prospect after how last season went. What a rise!
To me it is not that surprising, I have held onto him strongly in some deep dynasty leagues. He was the talk of baseball in early spring training before Covid ended things, and was sure to shoot up the rankings if we had a normal 2020 season. It's not a surprise that he has bounced back after clearly not being ready to be at the MLB level. What was surprising to me is how low he was ranked pre-season.

All three guys, plus McClain, should be hugged tightly. I like Ashcraft and Callihan too.
The rest can and should be used to make the big league club better. Not saying trade em all, but I wouldn’t be mad to see Senzel, Hendrick, Richardson, Siani or even Ashcraft used to bring in help now.
Depends on the return for me.
I'd prefer to keep all three of Lodolo, Greene, and Ashcraft (as I remember the Lost Decade and hoard pitching).
Barrero, I'd keep unless he's the key to a first division starting SS. (Or they plan on signing a first division SS FA.)
I'm keeping McLain too, but it's Ibarra who isn't allowed to go anywhere. (Not that anyone could make him.)
Greene and Barrero would be my two biggest untouchables, with Lodolo a distant third. Anyone else is tradable in the right deal.
I hope Ashcraft is more deGrom or Mahle at a minimum, but I also remember the days of Daniel Corcino and Dave Sappelt well.
Go BLUE!!!
