Time to go prospectin'

ESPN and MLB both unveiled their top prospect lists yesterday, now there's plenty of Phillies and Mets debate to have.  Finally!  Benny B has been bashing Phillies prospects the past few days and now we can roll that talk right on into the weekend.

I'll snip out all the Phillies and Mets prospects and the recently departed Phillies prospects in the Lee/Halladay deals -- I know how to give the people what they want.

From ESPN (top 100):

14. Domonic Brown
23. Jenrry Mejia
24. Michael Taylor [OAK]
40. Kyle Drabek [TOR]
41. Wilmer Flores
64. Ike Davis
73. Fernando Martinez
99. Travis d'Arnaud [TOR]

From MLB (top 50):

14. Domonic Brown
17. Kyle Drabek [TOR]
35. Michael Taylor [OAK]
47. Phillippe Aumont

Hmmm, where do I take this.  There's not a single Met in the MLB.com Top 50, awesome.  However, they get tons of love from ESPN.  Also, it hurts me to see Michael Taylor up so high, I still love that guy.  The fall of Fernando is epic down there at no. 73.  Obviously this doesn't definitely answer the Domonic Brown v. Fernando argument, but it absolutely swings it in Dom's favor.  So let's here it Mets/Phillies guys.  What do you think of these rankings?

with these sort of things, its always hard to argue rankings because we've never had a taste of these guys just yet. Of course, ol fernando had his time in the major leagues, providing us one comical wiggly flop in milwaukee.. but its still hard to judge these guys yet. but brown and drabek at 14 and 17, yikes. im glad we kept brown and gave up the more one dimensional Taylor.. Domonic seems to impress a lot of people around the ranks

As a whole Law ranks the Mets at #15 and the Phils at #24.
