Top Prospects of Season 6

So hopefully this run of the "Top Prospects" list goes smoothly and there are no technical errors. I changed the way the rankings are run just a slight bit, so players that are still eligible from last year might have moved around a little bit. Also I heavily decreased the weight of relief pitchers. So Albert Vizquel goes from being in the top 40 to not being in the list at all(he came in at #111). Not too sure how well that will work out, but for now that is how it's going to be.

The Montgomery Marauders(formerly Santa Fe) has a record ten players on this years list, followed by the Buffalo Wings with 6 players. Two teams don't have any players on the list, Tacoma and Colorado (formerly Honolulu, who also didn't have any players on the list last year).

Here's the overall ranking of each team's farm system:
Team Players Points Change
Montgomery 10 611 0
Buffallo 6 507 0
Charlotte 5 330 2
Kansas City 4 300 6
New Orleans 5 300 -1
Durham 6 264 5
Santa Cruz 7 259 19
Richmond 4 220 -1
Milwaukee 3 217 6
Minnesota 4 208 -4
Dover 6 193 -2
Las Vegas 3 173 5
Toledo 2 172 6
Arizona 2 154 -11
Iowa 4 153 9
Helena 3 123 -4
New Britan 3 115 -1
Scranton 2 110 -10
Chicago 2 104 1
Atlanta 3 97 1
Charelston 1 87 1
Cleveland 2 81 6
Lousiville 2 66 -5
Boston 2 45 -11
Los Angeles 2 41 -11
Phildadelphia 1 40 5
Washington 1 39 -2
Huntington 3 25 -1
San Fransisco 1 13 1
New York 1 3 -1

Points are awarded in reverse order of where the player is on the list. For example the first overall player is awarded 100pts while the 3rd overall is awarded 98. Change is how many positions the team has changed in the rankings from last year.
