SPECULATOR: 2023 rookie class check-ins

It’s time for the annual check-up.

Not the one with your doc (though please don't skip those!), but our annual check-in on each season's rookie class. As with other years, we’ll use this year's HQ100 for this exercise, limiting our observations to those who have had a decent-sized MLB audition so far. Given the influx of top-tier talent—we've seen seven of the top nine prospects make their MLB debuts in 2023—this list only covers prospects in the Top 25 who have seen enough MLB playing time to make somewhat of a judgment. We'll cover notables outside the Top 25 in similar fashion next week.

Our method is to give a quick synopsis of what we’ve seen so far, and then use the skills to speculate a bit on how this season portends to each...

Almost!
