MLB Top Prospects

As the 2014 season nears, I'm going to take a look at some of MLB's top prospects that have a chance of making the opening day roster.

Byron Buxton- The Minnesota Twins OF prospect took the minor leagues by storm last year and is MLB.com #1 ranked prospect. I expect him to be in a Twins uniform by opening day.

Oscar Taveras- Many people pick him for NL ROY and he is the St. Louis Cardinals #1 prospect. He is described as a 5 tool player and could be the next Albert Pujols

Xander Bogaerts- This Red Sox prospect is still eligible as a rookie. A kid with world series expierience under his belt. No one knows what to expect from this 3B in a full year.

Taijuan Walker- The best SP prospect is in the Mariners organization. Being compared to Felix Hernandez is alot to live up to, but in what we saw from his stint last year, He will be in Seattle's opening day rotation.

Kris Bryant- The Cubs 3B prospect is very interesting considering he has no pro experience besides the AFL. he is considered one of MLB's best prospects but I think he needs a year in the Minors

Noah Syndergaard- Matt Harvey, Zach Wheeler and now Syndergaard. If this kid can produce in 2014 the Mets will have a nice rotation on their hands.

Jameson Taillon- This Pirates pitcher impressed many scouts by pitching a solid game for team Canada against the US in the 2013 WBC. With Pittsburgh being a playoff team now, and the loss of AJ Burnett, I think it is the perfect time for Taillon to enter the rotation.

Mark Appel- The top pick of last year's draft, Appel still needs some time to develop. Considering the Astro's situation, It wouldn't shock me if he was on the opening day roster.

Dylan Bundy- MLB's next big pitcher was supposed to be called up by mid 2013. Tommy John surgery has halted his progress, but we will see how he comes back.
