Prospect rankings. Whether you love them or hate them, the inevitable midseason rerank of your favorite team’s prospects has come. Minor leaguers have been given the opportunity to play out the majority of their season and display any of the improvements necessary to maintain a successful major league career.

Some have flourished. Others have flopped. Sorting through the statistics to establish a consensus top 30 list for the Seattle Mariners is a time-consuming process for the average fan. That’s why we at Sodo Mojo did it for you!

I, alongside two of my colleagues, Chris O’Day and Jason Smarr, each assembled our own top 30 prospect lists. Then, after compiling the lists and assigning point values in accordance with their relative rank in the system, a collective “Sodo Mojo Ranking” was created.

Coupled with the rankings will be a general rundown on each player in the Sodo Mojo top 30 as well as all of our personal lists besides the group’s ranking. Let’s kick things off with some of the names that just missed our list…
