Apparently, Hicks is a scratch golfer. It's nice to see we're branching out in our two sport athletes.

No love for Tyler Robertson?
He didn't have a great year, but he can't beat out Mulvey?

No Delois Guerra? What a trade!

Of these, I've only seen Mulvey and Swarzak. I saw neither for very long, coming near the end of last season, but I can definitely tell you they are definitely on the mark by having Swarzak above Mulvey on the list.

Isn't Hicks a good basketball player as well? I thought I read that somewhere.

Deolis: According to John Manuel (who did this list) in the chat, Guerra's velocity was down this year, and his delivery was much different - whether because the Twins were trying to change him or whether he himself did the changing is not known.

Robertson: Also from the chat: dropped out of the top 10 primarily because he couldn't pitch in instructional league after being shut down in July, even though it's supposed to be just "tendinitis".

Hicks was also pan-Kansas field-hockey champeen.

Wasn't the selection of Ben Revere in the draft widely ridiculed?
