Leaning Arnold here, but could be convinced otherwise.
Holy crap Otero is old. He turns 27 before spring training starts. He’s only 4 months younger than Matt Cain. He’s 10 months older than Pablo Sandoval.
He’s 5 months younger than Brett Pill. Holy crap Brett Pill is old.
You know who's not old?
RafRod!
Carter Jurica!

Brett Pill is older than Matt Cain! Matt Cain has been pitching for the Giants since 1987!*

Of the names on the list
Tomlinson, Heston, DeJesus, Otero, Rodriguez, big glut of low-minors relief pitchers that I have no idea how to rank.
Seth Rosin can hit the side of a barn with a baseball. From space.

I guess he goes after Rodriguez, but I’m not convinced of that.

Heston's a starter.
FWIW

I'm not crazy. My mother had me tested.

Which is why he gets put above DeJesus
If he were a 24 year old reliever in Hi-A he would not beat Otero even though Otero’s much older. He wouldn’t beat a lot of the guys on the list, like Arnold or Marlowe, because they’re flamethrowers and he’s a sinkerballer.

RafRod
he’s okay I guess…sort of….this is getting tough now.
/evan tepid seal of approval.
I'm a Giants Fan, but I'll always be rooting for Matt Downs
Adopted Son:Dan Burkhart , Future Backup To Buster Posey.
When do we stop? because in my oppinion, i think once we get to around number 35, no one will know who they are voting for.
I has twitters https://twitter.com/#!/APR_studios
My first vote in a while
And it was between Rafrod and DeJesus. Both are young and have a lot of upside; that RafRod survived A-ball as an 18 year old without striking out too much gives me the edge. It’s not really necessary that he be good now to find a successful comp for him. Hopefully he gets promoted to the Cal league and puts something together.
Thanks!
Glad to know I beat the optimism drum here as I lean towards cynicism in all things outside of baseball.
Been really busy with a move to NY, then back to Cali, and now trying to start a furniture business and move back to NY. Eck.
Tomlinson
Because, um, I don’t really know any of these other guys besides Otero and RafRod. I figure at least Tomlinson plays a position of need.
We still have half a dozen guys who were drafted ahead of Tomlinson but aren’t on the list. His good showing in the Arizona League was better than not having a good showing, but I can’t see how it’s enough to vault him that far up.
A question for Evan
if you would indulge me: what order are these four on your list?
Tomlinson, Christian Diaz, Kentrell Hill, Jean Delgado.
I mean, Shawn Payne’s already up there, and he was a 35th rounder.

I’d go Delgado, Diaz, Tomlinson, Hill. I do believe in respecting draft order until players do something exceptional to distinguish themselves one way or another — e.g., Hill being severely outhit by Tomlinson at the same level at nearly the same age. How do you have them?
Delgado’s k/w numbers at age 18 are eye-catching, now that I look.
It’s certainly possible we jumped the gun on Payne. He’ll need to move fast or his stock will drop in a hurry. But I’d guess that a small-college player like Payne has a better chance at being an overlooked diamond in the rough than a Big 12 star.
