I talked to John Manuel, editor-in-chief of Baseball America, and he said that the Rangers beat out Florida and Oakland because of balance within the system.
"They have pitching and hitting prospects with some close to the major-league level and some at the lower levels with high upside," Manuel said. "Other teams had great pitching or great hitting, but the Rangers had the best of both."
The top 10 Rangers prospects according to BA. Manuel projects Neftali Feliz and Derek Holland as making the major league club at some point in 2009. He thinks Justin Smoak will be in Arlington in 2010.
