The minor league season is over after a dreadful 1-10 combined
playoff record from four White Sox affiliates. With that, it’s time to
kick off our season in review coverage with our Postseason Top 25
Prospects.
Per usual, we had a combination of eight FutureSox writers
and people who follow the Sox minor league system from our sister site,
Soxtalk.com, pool their ballots like an AP Poll. As a result, the
rankings are a combination of each of our rankings and don’t reflect any
of our individual opinions.
The previous rank is in reference to our Midseason
Top 25.
Player profiles are linked in the player’s name if the player has one.
Tell us what you love and hate about the rankings in the comments
section or join the discussion at Soxtalk!
