Baseball America has their mid-season top 50 prospect list up, and the Rangers' farm system is well-represented, with three members of the Texas farm system included in the group.
Jurickson Profar is #2 on the list, between the Orioles' Dylan Bundy and Wil Myers of the Royals. Third baseman Mike Olt is #11 on the top 50 list, and Cody Buckel checks in at #41.
Looking at the Rangers' rivals in the A.L. West, the Seattle Mariners placed four players in the top 50 -- Taijuan Walker and Danny Hultzen are #4 and #5, repectively, while Nick Franklin is at #35 and James Paxton at #42.
The Angels have just one prospect in the top 50, middle infielder Jean Segura, although Tyler Skaggs, part of the package Anaheim sent to Arizona as part of the Dan Haren deal, is #7 on the list.
The Oakland A's placed no one in the top 50.
