Not bad. But still indicative that there is room to grow.

UPDATE 2:
Those that missedÂ
In the first step of our Top 100 process, each voter compiles a personal top 150, and then we tabulate them and let the arguments begin. They couldn’t crack the official Top 100, but 92 additional prospects received votes in the top 150s. Here they are in alphabetical order, with the number of votes they received and their highest ranking on any list.
| Player, Pos, Team | Votes | High |
|---|---|---|
| Michael Burgess, of, Nationals | 4 | 108 |
| Jack McGeary, lhp, Nationals | 2 | 131 |
| Josh Smoker, lhp, Nationals | 1 | 127 |
| Jordan Zimmermann, rhp, Nationals | 1 | 133 |

Pretty fair assesment I think. I have a feeling Burgess is going to have a breakout year and really put himself on the map.
