Welcome to the first installment of Top 10 Prospects, Baseball Prospectus' weekly look at the 10 best prospects currently active in the minor leagues. Every week, David Cameron will look at those prospects who display the best combination of long-term potential, current performance, historical performance, and minimal risk. He'll also include a weekly list of Honorable Mentions, and Rising and Falling prospects. Dig in to find out who made the list.

This week, Baseball Prospectus 2003 will be released to bookstores nationwide. To celebrate the release of the book, we're announcing our Top 40 Prospects here at the Web site.
