Baseball Prospectus Twins' Prospect list

The Baseball Prospectus released today their annual Twins' prospect list. Here it is:

Five-Star Prospects

1. Ben Revere, CF
2. Aaron Hicks, CF

Three-Star Prospects

3. Danny Valencia, 3B
4. Angel Morales, CF
5. Wilson Ramos, C
6. Shooter Hunt, RHP
7. Kevin Mulvey, RHP
8. David Bromberg, RHP
9. Carlos Gutierrez, RHP

Two-Star Prospects

10. Deolis Guerra, RHP
11. Jeff Manship, RHP

They also list Tolleson, Swarzak and Mijares as "just missed". Interesting comparison with the scout.com list that was published earlier this month. It seems that the value of Plouffe and Tyler Robinson is widely distributed among the national baseball media

I liked Josh's conclusion regarding Hicks as #1 and Revere as #2. When you look at the power numbers it appears that Hicks has more going for him. Also interesting the things that 'sane' has said about Hicks being all that & a bag of chips.

It's hard to tell at this point, but Rivera projects as a leadoff hitter and he is the size of Kirby Puckett at his age and Hicks more like a middle of the order hitter. I wish there was some thought of switching Rivera back to 2B because he does not have an OF arm...

Revere... duh.
