With the OB Indy Top 10 taking a break for a week, here's a poll in its place rating the GBL players still in the league with the best chance to earn contracts in major league farm system during the offseason. Like the Indy Top 10, there are variables that make all the difference in the world. In other words, this is nowhere close to being a list of the league's top players.

Instead, it's a list contingent on statistical performance, age in the grand scheme, previous minor league history, opponent perception (from conversations with other league players where evaluations were made), my own evals from watching them live and even location (Long Beach players often benefit from the attention they receive being in the LA market so easy for scouts to pop in and out of). The photo above is Van Slyke, who is at the front of the line to receive GBL Pitcher of the Year honors...
