There you have it…. the 2026 TCN Community Top 50 Prospect Selections.
Remember: starting now we can begin the voting for the 5 Honorable Mention selections. The deadline for that will be Thursday Dec. 11th at noon CST and 1:00 EST.

As always, thanks to all of you who made this process run smoothly and with added credibility. Its been a great exercise for making the “fireside chat” a little more interesting into the Winter Meetings.
Q: Is there much interest in a “Top 50” like this starting at the All-Star break? Comments welcomed.

50 minutes folks. Missing are 2 reg and 1 other with a partial ballot.

[14NyquisT]

One more shot for the 1st rounder!

This has been the motto of the FO for how many years now?

[14NyquisT]

#37 – Honeyman

#38 – Winquest

#39 – Koperniak

[14NyquisT]

#34 – Honeyman

#35 – Winquest

#36 – Koperniak

[14NyquisT]

If you want to use player’s values to determine the best trade chip, Herrera would be the guy with the most.

[14NyquisT]

Brian…. for a guy that followed Springfield all of last season. It was so nice to see three starters take the mound every time their spot came up. (Mautz missed one start at the beginning of May). That was 26 starts…. and Hansen pitched the opening game of the Championship series. To me that like a guy that has nothing else to prove at AA.

ps. Hence made three AA starts in ’25. Hansen might get all of the hype but he has the experience to move up….. Hence or no Hence.

[14NyquisT]

Hansen = TCN’s hit list….. apparently just for blocking Hence?

[14NyquisT]

#31 = Honeyman

#32 = Winquest

#33 = Koperniak

[14NyquisT]

Quick note: The TCN’s # 45 selection Ty Van Dyke is penciled for a rotation piece at Palm Beach. Kyle had him at #33. 22y.o. 6’2″ 10th Rd.’25

[14NyquisT]

#29 = Mason Molina
#30 = Won-Bin-Cho

Well that’s our top 30. Now we are heading into the next portion of the voting which is three prospects at a time. So we’ll be looking for #s 31-32-33. Voting is now open and will end on Tuesday Nov.25th at 12 noon CST and 1:00pm EST.

As always thank you for your participation.

An hour 1/2 left for this pairing. I see a couple of regs left to chime in. Come on guys we could use your help.

My #29 Honeyman

#30 Winquest

Can anyone tell me why Honeyman is not getting any love here.

[14NyquisT]

If Walkere was still a prospect, where would you rank him?

[14NyquisT]

#27 Honeyman

#28 Gurevitch

[14NyquisT]

I don’t understand why the media and some fans are so quick to propose a Donovan trade. If he were on another team they might be looking to trade for him. Guys like him are tough to find. I guess the advanced statheads are looking at a slew of numbers and not watching the games.

[14NyquisT]

#25 Levenson

#26 Honeyman

[14NyquisT]

Granillo tops the list at #23 and Pete Hansen is #24.
