In terms of Top 100 Prospects Armchair has found more balance with all but one team now rostering at least 1 top 100 prospect.
(8) and
(8) still sit a top the rankings both having gained 1 prospect a piece. The biggest jump since last year comes from
(5) gaining 3 new top 100 prospects, the new GM is making great strides with the top end of their farm system. While
(4) and
(3) both moved down in the standings having lost 2 top 100 prospects.

The greatest news for Armchair comes out of the Top 30 prospect lists. The average number of prospects per team is now 28.5 (!) which is pretty close to complete parity of 30 per 30. However, once you dig into the numbers there are still some teams with more quantity than others.
(55) still leads the league even though it's lost 5 prospects since last year. The new prospect signing program for unowned teams has yielded great results with
(28)
(29)
(27) now all having sold farm systems ranking right in the middle of the pack. The biggest jump in the rankings going into the season comes from
(52) having gained an impressive 11 prospects since last season.

The biggest gainer is
picking up 5 since the 2022 trade deadline, while the biggest drop is
with -6. For the most part teams have picked up or lost one here and there, which is typical with graduations and off season trades. The average team has 3 prospects, which is good, and every team has at least 1. Also, if ya'll could stop trading Top 100 specs to
that would be awesome lol.

I have something new for Armchair this season, the formula is a work in progress and so I'd love to hear suggestions but each team is awarded 2 points for a top 30 prospect and 5 points for a top 100 prospect, but no points for duplicate players. This looks like the best way to rank and quantify the depth and quality of a system. As a point of reference the average farm should score a 70 based upon this formula. So this should give GM's a good idea of how their farms relate to the rest of the league and by how much.
