BP's PECOTA prospect / organization rankings

for those without a baseball prospectus subscription ...

BP's PECOTA player projection system ranks the tribe as having:

#17 farm system in baseball (taking into account rookie-eligible players only).  d-rays are ranked #1.

#6 in 25-and under talent (regardless of rookie eligibility).  d-rays rank #1 here as well.

#2 in 'total talent stock' (looking at all players in the organization ... but not sure how far into the future they're trying to look here).  twins are ranked #1.

all in all, bodes well for the next few years, but with a middle-to-low budget, the organization needs a couple of good drafts to get some impact talent back into the system.
