Here are the Padres top 10 prospects according to BP. No surprise that Hedges is #1 as BP has always been on the Hedges bandwagon (think they ranked him top 30 last year when everyone else has him in the 50s). Top five seem a pretty straightforward then it gets a wee bit surprising. I have to run to work right now so haven't gotten a chance to read the article but I'll share more a little later. I clearly need to read up on Alex Dickerson. I follow the Padres minors pretty closely and that's the first time I've seen that name.
