Three guys in the top 15 will do a lot to boost your farm system, and they have two starters who are major-league ready and probably end up in the top 3 spots in a big-league rotation, which I think makes them the most top-heavy farm system in the majors right now — meaning that a huge percentage of the prospect value here is tied up in those five guys, with another who was on the just-missed-the-just-missed list, so to speak.
The Pirates are the converse — inverse? contrapositive? — of the Diamondbacks, as they might not have a superstar in their ranks, or at least not above the complex league, but they have tremendous depth in their system if we’re just talking about guys who’ll play in the big leagues and be more than replacement level. The regular Double-A Altoona lineup could easily see five or six of its hitters end up filling that role, as well as several of its pitchers.

keithlaw MLB MLB Really the dodgers? Do the redsox know this.
Juan75069681 keithlaw MLB MLB Every year the Astros are ranked low and every year they bring up another stud that no one has ever heard of.
Juan75069681 keithlaw MLB MLB The Tigers suck and have the worst farm. Not getting out of the gutter anytime soon.
keithlaw MLB MLB When was the last time the farm system won the World Series? Cant always bet on what’s coming. I’ll hang up and listen.
keithlaw MLB MLB SpainPowell
keithlaw MLB MLB What an absolute goddamn parody
keithlaw MLB MLB What are the tigers doing? Seriously?
keithlaw MLB MLB Good job Avila
keithlaw MLB MLB Would love to hear a baseball scholar's opinion on where Al Avila ranks on the list of all time worst GMs. It is truly mind boggling how little he got for any of the trades he made. The Verlander trade alone was a fireable offense.
keithlaw MLB MLB The bottom three teams spell SAD 😔
keithlaw MLB MLB Tigers have the worst team in baseball AND the worst farm system
keithlaw MLB MLB You know the Tigers’ ranking is fair too, because while every other fanbase is bitching that Keith hates their team, we’re raising the pitchforks at Avila and Ilitch (rightfully so)
keithlaw MLB MLB Year 8 of the rebuild… worst system in baseball. This shouldn’t be possible
keithlaw MLB MLB More evidence that Dave Roberts is extremely overrated.
keithlaw MLB MLB Orioles should be 1
keithlaw MLB MLB Holy casual dark
keithlaw MLB MLB The Dodgers farm system is now the starters!
keithlaw MLB MLB Braves will never win a World Series this decade with such a lowly ranked farm system.
dennistlin keithlaw MLB MLB I guess anyone can make their rankings these days and have it tweeted as long as you know someone at the athletic 😆
keithlaw MLB MLB I’ve been really hating these lists has been putting out, not for the content, but because they refuse to just put 5 rows of 6 teams
keithlaw MLB MLB How is Baltimore farm system not number one?!?
MLBMarathon keithlaw MLB MLB How are we 30th Keith Wenceel Jobe Jung Madden Graham Santana It’s not the best but it sure is better than Atlanta
keithlaw MLB MLB In a perfect world the worst teams would be the highest on this list. Seeing the Tigers in last place here and in the standings speaks volumes about leadership in that organization.
keithlaw MLB MLB Detroit rebuild for nearly a decade and ended up being the bottom of all farm systems
keithlaw MLB MLB Astros had 14 homegrown players on their WS roster, including 3/4 of the starting rotation and 5 of the top 6 hitters in the lineup. That doesn’t include Alvarez, signed with the Dodgers but came up in the Astros system. But the farm system, one of the worst for years apparently
keithlaw MLB MLB Lmao cap
keithlaw MLB MLB Tigers are ranked too high!
keithlaw MLB MLB Watch the Astros have another ROY or rookie World Series mvp.
keithlaw MLB MLB Braves at the bottom cause ours stars are all under 26 for the most part
keithlaw MLB MLB Ms still have talent in their system. Don't really understand being so low. 😕
keithlaw MLB MLB Finally a little love for the Guardian's
keithlaw MLB MLB Nah Houston is 1. They’re good every fucking year with young guys
keithlaw MLB MLB There's a reason his lists aren't recognized with the respectable ranking lists.
katiejwoo keithlaw MLB MLB I’m a Cardinals fan, but Detroit at 30 is nuts
keithlaw MLB MLB The future is bright in Guardian land!!! If you need a young strike throwing pitcher or middle infielder please make us an overwhelming offer.
keithlaw MLB MLB Not surprised Yanks are middle of the pack. Outside of Volpe/Dominguez/Peraza/Wells/Sweeney, the team is severely lacking in pitching prospects in the high minors.
keithlaw MLB MLB Jays 17th - is most of that due to Tiedemann? Because the rest of the farm has questions.
keithlaw MLB MLB Yeah Dodgers!
keithlaw MLB MLB there is no way we aren't top 5
keithlaw MLB MLB Padres traded their entire farm….still better than 6 others.
keithlaw MLB MLB Pretty sure the Dodgers farm could beat the A’s and Rockies parent clubs 6/10 games.
keithlaw MLB MLB orioles low
keithlaw MLB MLB Cards at 9 is a joke.
dennistlin keithlaw MLB MLB
keithlaw MLB MLB Stros at 26
keithlaw MLB MLB Dodgers are Loaded
keithlaw MLB MLB Dodgers will drop out of the top 10 by next year. They will be graduating at least 4 guys from the top 100
katiejwoo keithlaw MLB MLB Congrats on the farm system World Series. Can't wait for y'all to trade another Yordan Alvarez to us. 😂
keithlaw MLB MLB “Dodger buy there players” yet we have the best farm every year
katiejwoo keithlaw MLB MLB Nice job trading for all those prospects Oakland. Really got us a nice farm system..
keithlaw MLB MLB Detroit being last is so wrong! Knowing how they performed the last couple of years…
keithlaw MLB MLB 2 AL East teams in the top 5 🔥
keithlaw MLB MLB I thought we bought our stars? Lol
keithlaw MLB MLB Keith just looking for your reasoning. Why the Mets 15th? Don’t they have like 5 top 100 guys? Along with a couple really promising arms ?
nytimes keithlaw MLB MLB I don’t trust anyone with pronouns in their bio.
dennistlin keithlaw MLB MLB this ain’t it
nytimes keithlaw MLB MLB JUST A REMINDER --THE MEDIA ARE YOUR ENEMY --THEY LIE TO YOU !
keithlaw MLB MLB I love how bitter people get because they think their team is better than the trash organization it actually is.
nytimes keithlaw MLB MLB BRAZIL: Senator Marcos do Val says Bolsonaro had plans to record a conversation with Big Alex to frame him and stay in power through a coup. Biden protects Bolsonazism.
katiejwoo keithlaw MLB MLB How the hell are the brewers above the cardinals?
keithlaw MLB MLB I hope Juan Soto was worth it.. now Padres near the bottom. A few years ago they were top.
katiejwoo keithlaw MLB MLB The Cardinals are much better than 9 with that talent.
keithlaw MLB MLB Dodgers just buy all their talent, this must be a mistake. They definitely haven’t had a top 10 farm system last decade
keithlaw MLB MLB Man it hurts to be a Detroit fan. What have we been doing the last 7 years while we sucked?
keithlaw MLB MLB It’s over for Detroit
keithlaw MLB MLB Twins farm underrated
keithlaw MLB MLB The Astros have been consistently rated among the worst farms in baseball but have been churning out young talent for half a decade. Farm rankings are meaningless.
keithlaw MLB MLB Rockies dropping
keithlaw MLB MLB D backs I didnt know they were like that
keithlaw MLB MLB The Mets have a better farm than the Yankees right now.
keithlaw MLB MLB Arizona is gonna be busy this spring trading away all their talent. Business as usual.
keithlaw MLB MLB Yet, it’s the Astros that produce home grown SUPERSTARS every year.
keithlaw MLB MLB This dude hates the orioles
keithlaw MLB MLB TheLADodgerDog Danny88751
keithlaw MLB MLB boxinggomez00
keithlaw MLB MLB BleacherNation is going to ignore the 3 teams in the cubs division in front of them and write a blog about this tweet and how deep the cubs are
keithlaw MLB MLB If Keith law said my team had a top 10 farm system I wouldn’t trust him. He just isn’t that good at his job.
keithlaw MLB MLB Now do the signed long term under age 28 rankings
keithlaw MLB MLB Guardians having 17 guys debut last year and the 2 system is nuts
keithlaw MLB MLB MARLINS 21 LMAOOOO
keithlaw MLB MLB keithlaw I respectfully don’t like your take on the Mets farm system. Definitely due to my bias. 😂 great work overall tho.
keithlaw MLB MLB And the Tigers are dead last again even tho they have had high draft picks the last few years….thanks Al!
keithlaw MLB MLB Bro thinks he’s an mlb scout 😭
keithlaw MLB MLB Padres 🤣
keithlaw MLB MLB Does anyone actually care what Keith is wrong about anymore?
keithlaw MLB MLB How the Yankees not in the top 10?
keithlaw MLB MLB Come on Keith. Reds at 13?! Explain yourself.
keithlaw MLB MLB It only took like 8 years but I can officially ask why does Keith Law hate the Braves so much
keithlaw MLB MLB the sox at 23 is ridiculous
keithlaw MLB MLB Having a good farm system is like winning the offseason. It feels good but it really doesn’t mean shit. All that really matters is the big league roster.
keithlaw MLB MLB keithlaw why did you rank the reds so low?
keithlaw MLB MLB Even with all of their trades, the A’s are 27th?
keithlaw MLB MLB Wild that the Athletics are arguably the worst team in baseball, and have such a terrible farm. Need new ownership.
MLB keithlaw MLB rog61
keithlaw MLB MLB Chaim Bloom was brought in by the Red Sox to revamp the farm system while still being competitive. He’s done none of that.
MLB keithlaw MLB Keith should get boosted
keithlaw MLB MLB The Braves have had one of the best farm systems in all of baseball for years. Why are they near the bottom at this point? Doesn't make sense to me.
