Rank the Farm Systems

Stealing the thread idea from Roo. Just thought it might be better to put it out there with another title.

Let's rank the top 10 farm systems.

In no particular order:

Rangers
Reds
Tampa Bay
Padres
Red Sox
Yankees
Dodgers
Rockies

now it gets tough for me

Athletics (before the Haren trade this might have been the D-Backs)
Washington

Wells to San Diego for George Kottaras

(Sorry. My bad. There's a post about this a little further down. I thought I check but must have missed it anyway. I hate when people do this. Myself included.) This deal is only tentaive right now, but I think its a good one.

Theo was asking for Kemp, LaRoche or Looney from the Dodgers.

I think to get Kottaras, even if he's having a down year, is great for a team that doesn't have a young catcher in the system after trading Shoppoch.

Great move by Theo.

How much is B. Wood worth?

I don't usually like to ask for fantasy advice on this site, but this one has got me stumped.

I'm pondering a deal for B. Wood.

I'd give up Miguel Tejeda and Ben Hendrickson (Mil) for B. Wood, K. Wood and D. Veal.

This is a deep (28 teams) keeper league. I won't get into the money aspects of the deal but on talent alone I can't seem to pull the trigger on this one.

Is B. Wood really worth this much?
