The 35 Royals minor leaguers who could end up in the big leagues Share this story Sam Greene via Imagn Content Services, LLC I could write up prospect ranking as you see around the web, but is there a point to that other than people like numbers next to player’s names so they can argue about if you were right or wrong? Instead, let’s follow Kyle Glaser’s lead at Baseball America and try to identify the 35 players who will make it to the majors. Per Glaser, each farm system will have 2-3 All-Stars per system; on average, they will have 10-11 regulars and 35 total players that will reach the big leagues at some point. So instead of breaking down the players 1 to 35, I’ll change it up by putting the players into those buckets. Of course, Kyle Isbel and Jake Brentz have already crossed themselves off that list by cracking the bigs this season when we look back, but 35 other candidates still fit well.
