PrintOk, here we go. WalrusMan and I will be putting these together over the coming weeks. Please feel free to make suggestions in the comments on how this could be better, and we'll do our best to accommodate you. Please let us know if there is too much, not enough, or false information. Also, please feel free to suggest players to add to the next poll or the testers group. So, without further ado, I give you our candidates for the Giants #1 prospect.
Madison Bumgarner, LHP, 19 - Drafted 2007, #10 overall. Pitched in A-Ball at Augusta in 2008 with 141.2 IP, 111 H, 164 K, 21 BB, 3 HR, 0.93 WHIP, 1.46 ERA, and a 44% groundball rate. Throws a fastball that sits low to mid 90's and can reach mid to high 90's, a slider, and a change. His slider and change are developing pitches, but the conventional wisdom that he only has one pitch is false.
Tim Alderson, RHP, 20 - Drafted 2007, #22 overall. Pitched in High-A at San Jose in 2008 with 145.1 IP, 125 H, 124 K, 34 BB, 4 HR, 1.09 WHIP, 2.79 ERA, and a 45% groundball rate. Throws a fastball that sits low 90's and can hit low to mid 90's, a slider, and a change. He is a polished pitcher who still has very good upside.
Buster Posey, C, 21 - Drafted 2008, #5 overall. Hit .463/.566/.879 with 57 BB, 29 K, 26 HR, and 51 total XBH in 325 PA at Florida State in 2008 while winning the Golden Spikes award for best college player in the nation. So far, has hit approximately .410/.490/.557 across Rookie Ball, Low-A, and the HWL in 2008 over ~100 PA. His catching is a little raw, which is to be expected since he's only been behind the plate for two seasons, but he's projected as a plus defender there.
Angel Villalona, 1B, 18 - Signed out of the "Dominic Republican" in 2006. Hit .285/.344/.450 with 15 BB, 42 K, 5 HR, and 20 total XBH in 229 PA in Rookie Ball in 2007 as a 16 year old. Hit .263/.312/.435 with 18 BB, 118 K, 17 HR, and 46 total XBH in ~500 PA in A-Ball at Augusta as a 17 year old. As a hitter, he has a ceiling that is rivaled by few batters in the minors, but he is still extremely young and still needs refinement.
Testers - Henry Sosa, Conor Gillaspie, Wendell Fairley, Nick Noonan, Rafael Rodriguez

haha I'm the lone dissenter so far
I chose Posey but any of the 4 would be fine for me
Adopted Giant: Aaron King
Wearing the crown by 2011. Or at least the LOOGY hat
Also, please let us know who you would like added to the next poll. Personally, I feel like we have these 4 as a pretty clear top 4, and then it gets a bit more interesting.

John Bowker
Emmanuel Burriss
Kevin Frandsen
Alex Hinshaw
Steve Holm
Fred Lewis
Bengie Molina
Ivan Ochoa
Dan Ortmeier
Dave Roberts
Sergio Romo

These are the players who were with the major league team and are eligible still.
Brian Bocock
Geno Espineli
Conor Gillaspie
Travis Ishikawa
Brian Horwitz
Osiris Matos
Scott McClain

Looking at this list reminds me that the 130ab/50ip cutoff is far too tight for prospecting purposes. Bowker, Burriss, Schierholtz, Valdez, et al. may have lost their rookie eligibility, but they’re in no way proven major leaguers yet (or proven failures, for that matter).
Anyway, I think I’d put Ishikawa ahead of a couple of guys on your Testers list. Maybe Pucetas and Tanner too.
for #5
I’d go with either Rafael Rodriguez (upside) or Conor Gillaspie (probability)
Adopted Giant: Aaron King
Wearing the crown by 2011. Or at least the LOOGY hat
Vote Rafael Rodquiguez for #5
or as Natto has called him, “the architect.” Oh, and he’s toolsy.
Rafael Rodriguez: He thinks Al Harrington sucks.

Took Posey because of his sister.
The bases were drunk, and I painted the black with my best yakker. But blue squeezed me, and I went full. I came back with my heater, but the stick flares one the other way and the chalk flies for two bases. Three earnies! Next thing I know, skipper hooks me and I'm sipping suds with the clubby.
Posey’s cool and all, but I’ll wait to see him mash or be mashed (sorry… thanksgiving’s coming up. can’t stop thinking about mashed potatoes) before I put him any higher then 4th on our prospect list. That’s a good thing, really; it means we have at least a little depth in our minors

It's gotta be MadBum
He was dominating in a way that no one else in the organization was. I’d like to see Posey do something impressive in the minors before I put him above that.
My current Interwebs obsession is pretty awesome. Also, my website is called ChatterBalks Dot Com. It's not being updated right now. Hope for more at your own risk.
MadBum, fosho.
Matt Cain: He'll save children, but not the Dodger children.
PABLO SANDOVAL AM STEAL DEATH, DESTROYER OF WORLDS.
Pretty hard to go against Bumgarner...
Although I really do like Alderson.
It’s pretty scary that Alderson only gave up a home run in ONE month and didn’t surrender a single one in the other 4 months. We’ll have to see how he adjusts as he moves up, but there’s very little debate at this point
September
Tim gave up a HUGE homer on a fastball while pitching San Jose’s playoff opener. He’ll give up plenty more with that pitch when he doesn’t locate it well. He pretty much tops out at 92 according to the radar gun. He sat at 89-91 that particular game.
Tim’s curve is already big league. I think the key to his becoming ready for the majors is to develop confidence in his change. The very few times he threw it, it looked good to me. But Tim either doesn’t feel he needs it (unlikely, particularly against lefty hitters) or he doesn’t have the confidence to use it frequently.
MadBum
has to be my number one pick. Clearly dominant this season in Augusta. I think I’d pick Posey #2 just because I really, really, really want a Giants prospect other than a pitcher to work out :-)
Gillaspie #5 please
My adopted son Matt Downs. Lost in the wilderness of mediocrity.
Anothe MadBum
Gotta go with the younger guy who’s already dominated professional ball.
Gillespie in tha mix next.
I went with AnVil because he's a Corner Infielder, the youngest, and has the highest ceiling.
But it’s funny how you put quotation marks around Dominican Republic like ts false or something haha.
Hasheem "The Beat" Thabeet or Brandon Jennings. A Warrior in 09.
That’s what I read it as, too. Like Dominican Republic was Narnia or something along those lines.

Actually, it’s a joke of some sort:

Yeah, sorry, it’s a very obscure joke/reference:

I went MadBum. For me its hard to compare the potential of Posey and Villalona, with the past season of excellence in the position of pitcher for MadBum and T2.
For next round Sosa, Gillaspie, Noonan, Rafael Rodriguez, and maybe Roger K or Crawford? Oh and Pucetas, the tru winner of the the past season of excellence in the position of pitcher viewers choice aweard. But really I don’t think any of them can break the top four at this point.
Castillo got the DFA. Guestimate for Castillo DFA to come before the 2009 season = 2.
Posey for me...
Both have raw points. I think if we’d seen Posey play all season, we would’ve seen a nearly-as-dominating performance, something like, oh, a .451/.517/.510 line. You know, like the one he currently has in Hawaii? Posey is the league leader in BA and OBP, and is fourth in slugging. Yes, it’s only 13 games, but it’s indicative of Posey’s maturity over his level.
I’ll also openly admit to not being as much of an agewhore as some prospect observers, so while it’s definitely in MadBum’s favor he’s so young, it’s not as overwhelming a factor for me.
With Posey, he plays a premium offensive position, and is a flexible hitter in the middle of a lineup. He doesn’t have ideal power, but his polish offensively, the likelihood he’ll move fast, and the premium nature of his position give him the edge.
If he weren’t a catcher, I’d vote for MadBum.
I’d include Kieschnick and Noonan in the next voting group. I won’t be voting for Rodriguez for a good long while.

I’d include Kieschnick and Noonan in the next voting group
Kieschnick and Brandon Crawford are two of the prospects I’m
interested in the McCoven Clan’s take on. I don’t see any mention
of Crawford playing winter ball (unless he was in the Instructional
League).

Last time I talked to Crawford (about 3-4 weeks ago), he said his leg was almost healed and that he was playing in the instructional league. The Giants were planning on sending him to the Dominican League as early as 2 weeks ago, but I haven’t talked to him since then, so I’m not sure if it actually happened since I haven’t seen him in the box scores.
proud father of the newly acquired Brandon Crawford..
I would take
I would take Rodriguez over Noonan in a New York minute. I love Nick’s swing, but I thought his K/BB ratio last season was pretty iffy for a guy with such modest power. I really don’t know much about Rodriguez, but if the Giants were willing to pay him even more than Angel Villalona I’ll trust their judgment at this point.
I really don’t know much about Rodriguez, but if the Giants were willing to pay him even more than Angel Villalona I’ll trust their judgment at this point.
The scouting reports I remember were a lot more negative than Villalona’s when he signed. I’d be willing to bet that the Giants just payed Rodriguez whatever would get it done because they had a lot of extra money that wasn’t going to the major league team, so it was a risk they could take.
I’m very unwilling to rank Rodriguez above Noonan right now.

Went for Bumgarner, although there’s not a huge amount of difference within the top 4 i feel. The top 4 seem to be clearly ahead of the others, but at some point you may as well add the others you’ve mentioned, just to avoid an overly short poll.
Those 5 seem like candidates for the next slots, along with Kieschnick & Crawford. I guess after you’ve got the slew of pitching prospects (Barnes, Pucetas, English, Tanner, Maday, etc) to be included at some point, and Ishikawa has got to be somewhere, although he’s probably the most difficult to gauge.
Proud owner of the most boring Username! Alex Hinshaw: Now showing in a bullpen near you!
Ishi
He’s going to be an interesting one. Will the warm fuzzies from the 2nd half of last year outweigh the question marks? I’m cautiously optimistic about him, but I can see rational arguments for having him at a wide range of places on the list.

+1
Good thing he wasn’t released as someone advocated long ago. I think he has proven to be worthy of prospect-dom, but would like to see another year of this before I believe. But if he can continue to progress, he would be a great power bat (and OBP) in the lineup, a true cleanup hitter.
Has anyone found out whether he has another option or if he has to make the major league roster in 2009?
I love Emo Philips, where has he gone? I used to watch him when NBC had their Friday late night comedy show. He and this crazy comedienne were hilarious (can’t remember her name)

I think it’s definitely Bumgarner at No. 1, and it’s pretty clear that these are definitely the top 4 in some order. But I’m really not sure who 5 should be. I think it has to be one of Noonan, Gillaspie, or Rodriguez… personally I guess I’m leaning towards Gillaspie, but I could be persuaded to go with someone else.

Bumgarner
for me, for the next prospect what are you guys going to do? Are you going to take the 3 arent the top and add one more to vote on? Just wondering.
I'm young but i didn't fall off the truck yesterday!
Good question…but I figured that 1-4 would be determined by this poll,
5-10 the next…
Not that I have a say (other that my MadBum vote).
They say some players get out of bed hitting; Pablo Sandoval doesn't wait that long
That wouldnt make sense though, because people are voting for who they think should be our #1 prospect not 2, 3, and 4 so how would this poll decide that?
I'm young but i didn't fall off the truck yesterday!
That’s why it’s a good question. What you’re proposing requires a lot of
polls, but will produce a true 1-n ranking.
They say some players get out of bed hitting; Pablo Sandoval doesn't wait that long
Good point.
Alderson right now is 4th in this list, but I would guess he would be #2 if there was a vote. Most people, if they were going to vote for a pitcher, took MadBum.
proud father of the newly acquired Brandon Crawford..
no..
The next poll would be between (at least realistically) Alderson, Posey, Villalona, and others. We’d probably add on a few to the next poll. I’m thinking of adding..
Ishikawa
Pucetas
Tanner
Rodriguez
Gillaspie
Sosa
Noonan
Crawford
Kieshnick
Fairly
Yea that’d be a large poll but then we’d have really all the interesting young guys in the poll. After that I’d add any prospect that got more than a few recommendations in the comments. Then we’d get the #2, take him off the poll and have everyone vote for #3. Takes longer bit gives better results and we’ve got time.

Yup, this
Although, and I’m not sure about this, I think we can’t have more than 10 options on one poll so we’ll have to pare that list down by 3 at first.

Also it should be Fairley and Kieschnick.
We’ll have to see how the next ones go, next poll I’d post all their names in the testers and get everyone’s opinion on who they’d include in the next few.

Joey Martinez should be somewhere on there.
Y’know, the lefty from the great Caribbean isle of New Jersey. Like Pucetas, he seems to get crapped on by scouts yet put up results after results.
Ehire Adrianza gets absolutely drooled on by BP for whatever reason, and don’t forget Mike Loree or Scott Barnes, who were both filthy this year. Although Ben Snyder struggled upon promotion, I’m not sure he’s deadweight yet.
Also, Sudrendy Windster plays for the DSL Giants. I don’t know if he’s good or not. But he is totally named Sudrendy Windster.

And so everyone knows..
We’ve decided that a poll every other day would probably be good, although with the first 4 we might want to speed them up and get through them after a day. The rest of the prospects will probably be a lot more spread out in votes.
The Basil Fawlty Moderating Strategy:
"We could run a nice blog here if we didn't have all these members getting in the way."
Yeah
I think I’d throw Ishi in early, just because he’s going to be so different from much of the rest of the list. He’s pretty much the only one of our position players who technically counts as a “prospect” and is knocking on the door of the big leagues.
I’d say the next list should have the remaining 3 from this poll, plus:
Ishi
Noonan
Raf Rod
Gillaspie
Kieschnick
Sosa
Pucetas

Bumgarner
I had Villalona as the top prospect last year and Alderson right up there with MadBum. AnVil and Timmy2 both had outstanding years (AnVil was the youngest player in the SAL league, and Timmy was the youngest pitcher in the Cal league), so I didn’t want to knock them down. But the reality is MadBum did more to raise his stock than the other 2, which is saying a lot. As for Posey, $6.2 mil buys a lot of cache, but I want to see more on the field first.
Any one of the 4 would be a good choice for top prospect and is a defensible choice.
Next up: Eihre Adrianza, Nick Noonan, Connor Gilaspie or Henry Sosa
Hector Sanchez: really getting tired of playing baseball in foreign countries...
$6.2 mil could BE hidden in a cache somewhere, but it has a certain cachet.
Am I mad, in a coma, or back in time? Whatever's happened, it's like I've landed on a different planet. Now, maybe if I can work out the reason, I can get home.
Touchet...
…or, something…

voted bumgarner
I’d like to see posey play a full season before putting him this high. Angel is still very far away, and his plate discipline seems to have a long way to go, considering that k/bb ratio. Alderson is good too, but doesnt have quite the upside that Bumgarner does. And for testers, maybe Kieschnick soon? Probably some young pitchers that could go on soon, but I’d have to look up some stats.
Also, when does the poll close?
Less arm, more talk. Raisingcain is a GAMER.
Adopted Giant: Henry Sosa
First few..
We’re looking at a day long poll. Probably after these first four we’ll slow it down since there will be more questions on the prospects.
The Basil Fawlty Moderating Strategy:
"We could run a nice blog here if we didn't have all these members getting in the way."
It's a great situation to be in
when you can’t really pick your system’s top prospect. MadBum’s the highest ceiling pitcher and a possible #2 starter. Alderson’s the most likely pitcher to get to the majors and become a solid #3 or maybe a 2. AnVil has the highest ceiling of anyone on the list but at the same time is also the least likely to make it. Buster has a pretty high ceiling with almost a guarantee of getting to the majors. I went Posey because of his bat and the fact that he plays a plus defensive position, albeit not very well (yet.) But he could possibly become one of the best hitting catchers in the game, which is a hugely valuable asset. It’s crazy that we all had AnVil at the top of our lists last year with little to no contention from anyone else. Now we have 4 top prospects and are the best farm system in the NL.
I'm going for Bumgarner
but that is because of a combination of proven results and enormous upside. If Buster picks up his fielding he would be my #1. I would leave Fairley off the first few polls, he is probably in the #8-#15 range, IMO
Todd Jennings: If he's on the DL, he can't suck as much, right?
Mad Bum

My vote has been cast
for the angry homeless guy
Bumgarner
As great as Posey was in college and doing well now in Hawaii, as noted, he’s still pretty raw defensively at C, whereas Bumgarner totally dominated at A-ball at 18. Remember, his first three starts don’t really count because he was throwing the way the Giants made him throw. After the first three starts, his ERA was under 1.00 in A-ball against players 3-4 years older than he is on average.
For comparison, Sanchez pitched 125.2 IP with 122 hits, 39 walks and 166 strikeouts in A-ball at age 22 and was brought up to the majors the next season because he was so dominating.
Bumgarner pitched 141.2 IP with 111 hits, 21 walks and 164 strikeouts in A-ball at age 18. He’s basically ready for the majors in comparison to Sanchez, whereas Posey needs at least a year to learn calling pitches plus all the other catching nuances he obviously still needs to learn.

RE Sanchez
I love Sanchez, I dug it when he was first called up, but slowly came to hate the way the Giants Org bounced up and then all around.
Castillo got the DFA. Guestimate for Castillo DFA to come before the 2009 season = 2.
I don't have a real problem with Sanchez's handling
He clearly didn’t belong in the minors anymore and yet despite being able to just rear back and throw strikes as a reliever, was still walking guys left and right, something that should get worse if he were thrown into a starter’s role earlier. It would have been a disaster having him start any earlier than he did, and parts of this year was a disaster as well.
Look at his stats in AA and AAA, did those look like numbers of a guy who should stay in the minors? No, you would just be wasting a major league arm in the minors, which is part of the credo of TINSTAAPP. And yet he wasn’t doing it as a reliever, so why would one think he could do better as a starter then either?
