Risers & Fallers: Lazaro Montes & Colt Emerson…
This week's risers and fallers is all about my recently released Top 100 Fantasy Baseball Prospects updated list for July. On the risers side are two players from the deepest system in the league, Lazaro Montes and Colt Emerson, of the Seattle Mariners, and the athletic catcher in the Kansas City Royals organization, Blake Mitchell. On the fallers side, we have dominant, but rarely healthy, left-handed fireballer Ricky Tiedemann, Diamondbacks shortstop Tommy Troy and an I-was-a-year-too-early Angels prospect, Nelson Rada.
