MLB Farm System Rankings For Every Team

Plus: Preseason NCAA Tournament bracketology, prospect deep dives & more.

2025 MLB Farm System Talent Rankings

The American League East still has the best farm system in baseball, but the crown has shifted to Boston entering the 2025 season following Baltimore’s two-year run atop the preseason rankings.

The Red Sox rank No. 1 for the first time since Baseball America began its annual preseason farm system talent rankings over 40 years ago in 1984. Boston boasts three of baseball’s 15 best prospects even after this winter’s blockbuster Garrett Crochet deal.

Detroit ranks second, which is also a high-water mark for the organization after previously topping out at No. 4 entering the 2021 season. The Tigers are fresh off a surprise postseason run and have now produced a top-five farm system in four of the last five seasons.

Baseball America’s farm system rankings come on the heels of our preseason Top 100 and Top 30 Prospects for every organization. You can see where every system ranks below, which is unlocked for all newsletter subscribers 🔓️
