Warning: players who appear in our live prospects listing, but are ranked near the very bottom of the list, may only appear because they were once ranked higher and still technically qualify. As a side-effect of our automated processes, the end of the publicly-visible list also collects longshots, recently-retired players, foreign players unlikely to enter MLB, near-busts and other extreme dark-horse candidates. It does not mean that there are not 'better' prospects, only that better prospects in our system lack enough accurate data and/or scouting inputs to become visible at this time. Always read the detailed information and consult other sources before drawing conclusions about prospect viability, and never, ever, ever treat a 'ranking' alone as if it's meaningful.

A relatively unknown pitcher hidden in the Cleveland system, righthander Hector Rondon uses his darting 93mph fastball and MLB-ready breaking ball heavily, and both are highly effective when he commands them... which is most of the time. He stumbled in an injury-riddled 2010, however, and reinjured his elbow again in 2011. He's being rebuilt this spring, and should begin rehab work in late summer. We won't know if he really has anything left until winter, 2012.
