Maybe just me, but I’d have Ike Davis at about #2, definitely over Wilmer Flores. I’d have slotted Kirk Nieuwenhuis in the 5-10 range as well. The Mets’ list really looks pitiful, especially when you consider their depth is below-average also.

Questions for John Manuel :

Great job on the top 10. Questions ?

Do you see Chance Chapman anywhere in the ML future?

What about Austin Hyatt ?

We have seen Sergio Escalona go up and down with steady performance on occasion. Where would you have placed him last year, or even on this year’s top 10 despite his “experience?”

Escalona made last year’s 30 and should again; Hyatt also is in the 30 mix. Chapman did what he had to do in 2009; he’s not a top 30 guy but he could be an up-and-down guy.
