Catchers don’t age well, and Rutschman will be in his 30’s. Hes already not a top 10 player in the league, why should that change as he breaks into a his 30’s at the most physically demanding position on the field?
@@michaelp5442 he’s only in his 3rd full season and was top 10 in MVP voting last year. Plus many catchers stay being good as they turn 30, it’s not crazy to think he’ll still be as good as he is now. They could transition him to 1st base too in a few years.
@@SoxPats12 : they absolutely could, and his offense would be valuable at first base, however, the majority of his value right now comes from the fact that he’s putting up that offense as a CATCHER, and a damn good one at that. He hasn’t show the hitting ability (yet) to suggest he could be a top 10 player in the league as a first baseman, with exclusively his bat. Things change, but you can’t exactly predict that at this point in time
@@elidik8290no he won’t he gets hurt a couple times big deal everyone get hurt Ronald Acuña jr is just 1 example. Your probably just pissed that Jose Ramirez isn’t on here so mind your business. RC23
I’m a twins fan but I get it. We haven’t even seen a full season from him yet and a lot of these guys have already shown they’re all star caliber or better and have been healthy for a couple seasons.
I like giraffeneck but don’t agree with everything. I’m a Braves fan so putting Acuna down the list hurts but makes sense. I 1000% agree that Bobby Witt Jr. is likely to be the best player in the game. Regardless, it will be fun to watch it shake out!
Solid. Some kid we don’t know is going to sneak on that list though. They always do. In 2018, no one would have thought yordan alvarez would be a top 10 player in 2023.
As of right now he isn’t great, he’s like slightly above average. But Elly De La Cruz also has the highest bar of all players. Literally all parts of his game he could be one of the best. But hence, COULD, but he just hasn’t shown much in terms of his bat.
@@CosmicStar3 I will admit he is incredible on the basepaths, but he’s definitely gotta improve at the plate until I start buying the hype. Don’t really know much about his defensive ability.
@@dehavillandcanadatwinotter9621 statistically he is actually one of the best defensive shortstops. But what’s crazy is that he is making a lot of errors right now, which means he can be even BETTER. He can definitely steal better as of right now he is just using is pure speed. He throws the hardest. He’s capable of hitting 450+ home runs. HIGH POTENTIAL. Just wished he could stop striking out so much
@@dehavillandcanadatwinotter9621 just for reference I think at the start of the month he was on pace for a 40-120 club or something crazy like that. He just isn’t consistent. One month he is the best player in the MLB the next month he is a little leaguer at the plate
I’m calling that judge is still here in 5 years. Probably like 7-10 range or maybe he ends up just off but I still think he’s going to be raking in 5 years. He’ll be 37 but I’m hoping he ages gracefully and I think he will.
I have Soto he reminds me a lot of pujols a better eye and pujols had 10 consecutive seasons with more walks than strikeouts Soto is just otherworldly but I can see Bobby Witt jr being the best also nice list
I understand that Corbin Carroll is having a disappointing season. But he'll only be 28, he's a 5 tool guy, and he was an all star and led his team to the world series in his rookie year last year.
Fernando Tatís jr and Jackson Merrill I believe have a good chance of being an elite cornerstones for a franchise so I would definitely put them on my list
Glazing Elly he’s a below average player with insane strikeout rates and the worst hitter in the league when he bats righty Either he needs to drop switch hitting or make major adjustments
And that is why in 5 years grimace will be the best player in all of baseball
this one isn’t as bad as the others
@@GrammySlammyFR
Yessir
Yordan being only 26 is crazy. He's already been so good for so long.
That’s what I’m saying I thought bro would be like atleast 30
Bobby Witt Jr. has so much potential! 🔥
he’s already top like 5 this year imagine what he could be tho
@@brockbowen2806 yessir! 🔥
True
Leaving Paul Skenes off this list feels slightly obsurd
He said hitters not pitchers
@@l.veronicawembes8856 read it again
@@l.veronicawembes8856no he didn’t
@@l.veronicawembes8856Nah, he said players
@@l.veronicawembes8856 no he didn’t 💀
Vladdy should be on here
Adley Rutschman??
Right let’s throw in a random prospect over the best catcher in baseball
@@jjroffler9451random???? He's a top 3 rn.

He’s a Braves hater and jealous. However the two acl tears are pretty scary
Solid. Some kid we don’t know is going to sneak on that list though. They always do. In 2018, no one would have thought yordan alvarez would be a top 10 player in 2023.
Vlad Jr should be on this list
I like the content!! I would also like to see your top 10 for pitchers (or maybe even a combined list)!
Royce Lewis not on this list is criminal
Based putting Bibby Wott on top
Elly de la Cruz has got to be one of the most overhyped, overrated young players in recent MLB history. Also, where’s Paul Skenes?
Yes bro finally someone who understands
As of right now he isn’t great, he’s like slightly above average. But Elly De La Cruz also has the highest bar of all players. Literally all parts of his game he could be one of the best. But hence, COULD, but he just hasn’t shown much in terms of his bat.

Bro, Thankyou so much for putting Julio at 4. He’s having a rough season and really needs the confidence booster. I totally agree with this list
Ethan Salas just sitting in the corner😢😢😢
If u a padres fan then Merrill got to be close too
He’s not very good
Bro someone on the tigers gotta be on here tho
nah grimace is #1 😈💜
The Jackson Merrill disrespect will not be tolerated
I’m calling that judge is still here in 5 years. Probably like 7-10 range or maybe he ends up just off but I still think he’s going to be raking in 5 years. He’ll be 37 but I’m hoping he ages gracefully and I think he will.
Royce Lewis deserves a look
Leaving Aaron Judge and Masyn Winn of this list is crazy
Judge will be 37....
Duran from the Sox should be at least number 10
Idk why but I feel like Royce Lewis might become the best player in baseball
I have Soto he reminds me a lot of pujols a better eye and pujols had 10 consecutive seasons with more walks than strikeouts Soto is just otherworldly but I can see Bobby Witt jr being the best also nice list
Royce Lewis and Evan carter
Oneil Cruz if he can fix the chasing bad pitches problem😊
I feel like Spencer stridershould be on this list but it’s difficult to know with him being a rookie and not playing long this year
Wyatt Langford should be on this list
Ranger fan?
as an orioles fan adley should be on here too
What about Paul Skeens as an honorable Mention
jackson holliday??
Holliday definitely ain’t gonna be on this list, maybe top 50 though
What happened to babe Ruth when he said Ohtani is the only good hitter and pitcher😅 ever
Joey Votto snubbed
Never let bro cook ever again 💀💀💀
Elly de la Cruz is so talented but he strikes out … a lot. Dangerous pick.
That’s the thing, in 5 years he will either cut down on his strikeouts and be the MVP. Or he will be the strikeout leader
And that’s why Lindor will carry the Mets to the World Series and win 10 mvps in 5 years.
Adley not being there is kind of wild.
We all know in 5 years, we'll have a 46 year old justin verlander who is still a cy young winner
Ahem. Jackson Holliday
I know Jose Ramirez will be 35-36, but I can still see him sniffing the top 10.
Do pitchers
Lord I hope Julio will be top 5 then... he's worrying me recently.
solid list
Royce Lewis of the twins should be up there
Elly de la strikeout
😂😂😂😂 Elly de la Cruz
Bro forgot Max Clark 🤦♂️🤦♂️ silly Marc
This may sound crazy but I won’t be surprised if Riley Greene is in the top 10 in a few years
I was getting annoyed that Witt hadn't came up, then you redeemed yourself
I understand that Corbin Carroll is having a disappointing season. But he'll only be 28, he's a 5 tool guy, and he was an all star and led his team to the world series in his rookie year last year.
Corbin Carrol?
Jackson Merril?
Adley Rutchman?
Shoutout Jac Caglianone?
I like Bobby at 1 . Bye the way I just subscribed
Yyeess Bobby Wtt Jr. finally gets the respect he needs
Never let bro cook 💀
No Adley is a crime
Mayson Winn had to on that list
Thanks for James wood :)
As a Braves fan, Acuna will just be outside. He will be a top 20 guy. A more toolsy Trout, less “talent”(ie… a hitter IQ)
Gotta have adley rutschman on that list
What about vladdy
Bryce Harper, mookie betts? Anyone?
They would be towards the end of their careers. They might be able to keep peak for about 3 more years before they slow down
Mookie and Bryce would both be 36 years old.
No full time pitchers really makes me doubt this list
I think Elly is too streaky to be a top 10 player I’d swap him with like Austin Riley, Adley, maybe sienes or honestly a 40 year old Freddie freeman
mine goes crispy coff hot as hell and can't taste anything
Merrill 🐐
Bibby wott jr is fire
PCA needs to make the list but i dont think he will be on the Cubbies.
No Adley Rutchman is wild 😭
Paul Skenes?
Maybe just maybe Logan O’hoppe , Zach Neto , Nolan R. S.
I’d bet everything I own that at 34 Ohtani won’t be a starting pitcher
has this guy never heard of Royce Lewis who hit 9 homers in 12 games like and after coming off of a hammy injury
I think there will be a lot of name,that we don’t know now
Crazy how young this game is
Fernando Tatís jr and Jackson Merrill I believe have a good chance of being an elite cornerstones for a franchise so I would definitely put them on my list
Bryce Harper says ACKNOWLEDGE ME
Mookie betts and aaron judge have left el chat
I’d put Jackson Merrill over Wood for sure
My aunt works with James woods mom no cap
vladimir guerrero jr?
How tf judge not on here
Bc judge is like 32 rn so he would be 36-37
Has a Yankees fan I agree Aaron should not be in there
No Paul skenes😂
leaving Masyn Winn and Jordan Walker off the list is crazy cuz Masyn Winn is better than de la cruz
Acuna jr!!
Acuna is great man, too bad he’s made of glass
Jackson Merrill
Bobby Witt will be 34 he 24 now
Glazing Elly he’s a below average player with insane strikeout rates and the worst hitter in the league when he bats righty
Either he needs to drop switch hitting or make major adjustments
Wander Franco should be in this list. Too bad he did what he did.
AARON JUDGE
Have you lost belief in Tatis?
See the guards game today? Still having thoughts abt that offense? Lmao best team in baseball
Jackson Chourio
Sleeper Jackson Merrill
Bro left out Paul Skenes, Adley Rutchman, and Royce Lewis
Jaxon Holliday?
Royce Lewis
Corbin Carrol🤨
Some low top 100 prospect right now like a Josue De Paula will make this list
