"seems like every year when Baseball Prospectus is going to issue the Dodgers' top prospects, the publication is delayed. While whether or not it was delayed, here is the list (most of the analysis is only available to subscribers.) "
http://bit.ly/bHvsAn

Five-Star Prospects
1. Dee Gordon, SS
2. Chris Withrow, RHP
Four-Star Prospects
3. Ethan Martin, RHP
Three-Star Prospects
4. Aaron Miller, LHP
5. Scott Elbert, LHP
6. Trayvon Robinson, OF
7. Garrett Gould, RHP
8. Ivan DeJesus Jr., SS
9. Josh Lindblom, RHP
Two-Star Prospects
10. Kenley Jansen, RHP
11. Kyle Russell, OF

Four More:
12. Andrew Lambo, OF: He isn’t an athletic corner outfielder, and is instead a bat-only prospect who might not have enough bat.
13. Allen Webster, RHP: A highly projectable righty, Webster has the potential to rocket up this list after his 2010 full-season debut.
14. Pedro Baez, 3B: He needs to overcome an injury bug and plate discipline issues, but his tools remain outstanding.
15. Nathan Eovaldi, RHP: This Tommy John surgery survivor was kept on a short leash in 2009, but he was brilliant at times while showcasing one of the more live arms in the system.

Thanks bluetrain! I really can't wait to see Gordon in the big leagues, he stole 70+ bases this past season. His speed is going to be valuable to the club. As of right now the only true threat on the base paths is Matt Kemp. Do you think Lindblom will make the team out of Spring Training? I hope so - I saw him pitch last year at AT&T park and he has awesome command.

Dee Gordon is three yrs away, I think... Lindblom, I think will be better served at AAA(the LAD also). We are weak in our system in positipm players, partiularly 3B and to a lesser degree the OF. But pitchers,good ones, have top value on the trading block. Good for us...Our system is heavy with pitchers...

We haven't had any luck with the 3B position. The good thing is we have a great core playing for us now and I hope they'll be with us for a very long time.

We still have Casey for next year as well. Do you think Lambo will be ready to step in for Manny after this season?

you're correct sir, my bad, problem is, how good wil he be at almost 40? Over the hill can happen in the blink of an eye at his age, I hope not, just sayin. but we still have pitchers and no 3B in the minors...

I thought Martin was just rated above Withrow? Or was that MLB.com's prospect listing? :shrug
