MLB Pipeline Has Seven Guardians Prospects On Top 100 List

The Cleveland Guardians farm system has seven players in MLB Pipeline's Top 100 list.

In case you hadn't heard yet, the Guardians have an absolutely loaded farm system!

Cleveland was the youngest team in baseball in 2022 and they were able to win their division in a landslide and reach the ALDS against the New York Yankees. They did all of this while debuting prospects in what felt like every other game.

What's even wilder though is that they still have a ton of highly-ranked prospects in the waiting.

MLB Pipeline released their new list of Top 100 Prospects heading into the 2023 season and the Guardians had seven of their own on that list. They include:

• 16. Daniel Espino RHP
• 42. Gavin Williams RHP
• 51. George Valera OF
• 64. Bo Naylor C
• 65. Tanner Bibee RHP
• 75. Brayan Rocchio SS/2B
• 82. Chase DeLauter OF

You have to love all the pitching that's showing up on this list. If you combine that with the current staff and bullpen the Guardians have then you're looking at years and years of dominant arms.

There is a lot of agreement that the Guardians have one of the best farm systems in MLB. Just last week Baseball America released their top 100 prospects and they also had seven of Cleveland's prospects on their list. 

The only difference was that Baseball America had Logan Allen on their list while MLB Pipeline has DeLauter.

Speaking of DeLauter, it was a little bit of a shock to see him so far up on this list already. Albeit a welcome surprise. He was the Guardians' first-round pick in the 2022 MLB Draft over the summer.

It's exciting to see how high these prospects are ranked but it also makes you wonder where they'll fit into Cleveland plans in the future. They can only have nine players on the field at once.
