The Essential Guide to 2024 Bowman Baseball Prospects: Full Analysis and Rankings

Hello Readers. 2024 Bowman is here and it seems that Fanatics has listened because there are not a ton of pitchers in this product. There is a good mix of mid to late round prospects, international signing and high draft picks. Overall this product is decent. Singles are the way to go.

Pitchers and Catchers - Automatic pass. Arm break and Catchers take too long to develop. 

Box Break Teams - Braves, Astros, Brewers, Red Sox, Rockies


Atlanta Braves

Diego Benitez SS - The extra base hits look OK. Young player with maybe a slight chance of power. 

Douglas Glod - CF - Not bad and only 19. Would need to see the swing and miss go down. 

Isaiah Drake - OF - Really young. A buy and hold if you like the scouting report.

Arizona Diamondbacks

Gino Groover 3B - Pass. 

Tommy Troy SS - Pass. 

Baltimore Orioles

Aneudis Mordán C - Pass.

Enrique Bradfield Jr. OF - Not a ton of at bats but I am not seeing anything here.

Max Wagner 3B - 2023 numbers are not bad but its a pass for me. 

Rolphy Cruz Utility - Pass.

Tavian Josenberger CF - Pass. 

Boston Red Sox

Antonio Anderson SS - Pass. No pop.
Ebay Link 

Allan Castro CF - Solid. Worth a purchase. Look at the numbers. They are good. 
Ebay Link

Ebay Link

Yoeilin Cespedes SS - Good. Like the doubles and triples. 

Chicago Cubs

Alfonsin Rosario RF - Need to see more.

Chicago White Sox

Jacob Burke CF - Pass.

Ryan Burrowes SS - Currently injured but its still a pass. 

Ronny Hernandez C - Pass. 

Rikuu Nishida C - Pass. 

George Wolkow OF - Super young but 6'7. Why not take a chance. 

Colorado Rockies

Erick Bautista OF - Not a ton of stats out there. Do you trust the scouting report? 

Kelvin Hidalgo SS - I like what I see here. 

Robert Calaz OF - I like it.

Capri Ortiz 3B - Pass.

Felix Morrobel SS- Pass. 

Jorge Marcheco P - Pass. 

John Wimmer SS - Young. Need to see more. 

Milwaukee Brewers

Brock Wilken 3B - Classic power bat. Big season for him right now. He needs to produce. Its a pass.

Filippo Di Turri SS - Pass. 

Jadher Areinamo SS - Pass. 

Luke Adams 3B - Really solid 2023. Worth a buy. 

Minnesota Twins

Byron Chourio OF - Only 18 but I think it may be something here. 

Carlos Silva C - Pass. 

Walker Jenkins OF - First auto (Thanks Anonymous & ManwithNoName). Dealing with a hamstring issue right now which sucks. He was one of my favorite prospects in his draft class. Stud but will be expensive.

New York Mets

Anthony Baptist OF - Young with potential. I can understand the purchase. 

Boston Baro SS - I need to see him play. 

Jeffry Rosa OF - Lots of pop here. I like. 

Stanley Consuegra RF - Pass. 

New York Yankees

Agustin Ramirez C - Pass.

Enmanuel Tejeda SS - Pass.

George Lombard Jr. SS - Pass. 

Jesus Rodriguez C - Pass. 

John Cruz CF - On Miami now. Numbers are great but not being a Yankee hurts his value big time.

Aidan Smith OF - Not bad. Decent numbers. 
Ebay Link

Ben Williamson 3B - Older but having a really good season. Good quick flip candidate. 

Texas Rangers

David Guzman OF - Really young. Doubles look good. Can they develop him?

Sam Shaw 2B - Will need to come back to him. 

Washington Nationals

Dylan Crews OF - No 2 pick in the draft. Is he legit. I think so but need to see how he does this season.

Travis Sykora P - Pass.

Future of the Site

Hello all. I know I have not posted in a while but the site is not dead yet. I'm not sure how long I'll keep running it because I don't have time to consistently post and social media is not really my thing. The goal was to be an underground resource for prospect info. I think I accomplished that goal. I don't want to just post when a product comes out but that has been the trend lately. I hope you have enjoyed what I have provided. I may have some comments on the upcoming Bowman release. We'll see. The checklist names are so long these days I don't have the time to perform deep research like I used to. 

Update 5/17/2024 - The response has been overwhelming to say the least. I appreciate all the cool comments. Thanks a ton. I'm here to stay!
