Interesting how Porcello has ALREADY surpassed Cammy...

Price is almost certain to start the year in the majors, so in essence, the top pitcher in the minors will be Porcello.

Let's hope he lives up to the hype.

He's our only guy on the list. Sad.

Surprised they don't have Gorkys Hernandez on there.

Interestingly Maybin is the only guy on there that we traded away in the offseason last year. Sure, Andrew Miller and Jair Jurrgens aren't eligible for the list because they were both in the majors all year, but still. We "sold the farm" but even those guys aren't top prospects at this point.

I agree...

Eulogio De La Cruz, Humberto Sanchez, Dallas Trahern, Anthony Claggett, Gorkys Hernandez, Kevin Whelan are no where to be found...

Tigers discussion by prospect dorks, mostly about Porcello.

Gorkys had another good year marred somewhat by injuries. Still a solid prospect.
