2023 Baseball Prospectus Top 101: Henderson Tops Again



For the second time this week, St. Joseph Jokers infielder Gunnar Henderson topped a major publication's Top 100 Prospect list, this time by Baseball Prospectus. Henderson is safely planted as an Opening Day activation for GM Rick Steen and should serve as the heart of the Jokers roster for the next three seasons.


Just like with Baseball America earlier in the week, Baseball Prospectus is a big fan of the Asti Grape Stompers Farm System with eight representatives. That group is led by slugger Jordan Walker (2) and Francisco Alvarez (4).


The Maltese Falcons ranked second in the RDBL with seven representatives in the Top 1001 led by right-handers Eury Perez (11) and Daniel Espino (25), 1st and 2nd Rounders from the 2022 Reserve Draft.


The Burlingame Blue Ducks were the lone club without a representative in the Top 101.
