BurningRiverBaseball’s 2019 Cleveland Indians Prospect Rankings: 100-76

Christian Cairo1

Welcome to the beginning of Burning River Baseball’s Cleveland Indians 2019 prospect rankings! Some websites might rank a team’s top ten prospects while others go to thirty, but we love our prospects so much that we go all the way to 100. The first 25 are listed below with basic information and photos. The next 25 will be coming out tomorrow with short descriptions, then the rest will follow ten at a time until we reach the final ten. In order to be considered a prospect eligible for this list, a player must be under team control by the Cleveland Indians and have zero days of MLB experience.

The players on this page generally fit one of two categories. They are either players with good numbers who are getting too old to be considered legitimate prospects or are players who are extremely young with a high ceiling, but have yet to produce numbers that can solidify that expectation.
