Last week was fun, wasn't it? Sure it was. Anytime we get to break down prospects is a great time. And I figured since we had so much fun last week, we'd do it again this week! Can you feel the excitement?!After going over the #100-81 prospects last week, we tackle 20 more this week that are a little better than the last bunch. Out of the players below, several are high-upside toolsy hitters in the low minors. These players have future fantasy stud written all over them if they can continue to develop their immense…

The dust of the trade deadline has settled, and baseball is set to begin the most exciting leg of the season.

Here's how those top-10 have done up to this point in the season.    10.…

In last week's Dynasty Dugout, we looked into four post-hype prospects that have struggled thus far at the major league level. This week we switch over to every dynasty league owner's favorite topic.For those of us that play in dynasty leagues, prospects are basically as valuable as our own children. Okay, maybe that’s a bit far, but you get the point. The beauty of prospects is that no one really knows how good they can really be. For every person that thinks one prospect will be the next Mike Trout or Bryce Harper,…
