Amazin' Avenue did a community prospect list last year and I thought it was really fun. I guess whoever ran it either doesn't have the time or the interest so I thought I'd step up and start it.

I would like to go twenty deep but we're a little pressed for time so we'll see how it goes. I plan to have the polls open for two days which is not a lot of time for people to vote but like I said, we're coming up on pitchers and catchers reporting. Two-day polls would put us at #20 forty days from now. As for who is eligible, I'm going with strict rookie-eligibility. For the first few polls there will be more then five candidates but for subsequent polls I'm going to try and limit the options to five for simplicity's sake. However, I encourage people to use the comments to propose who should be added next - otherwise I'm just going to use my own judgment and the already published lists as guidelines.

When voting (especially on this first one) please do so without looking at the results first. I know it's tempting but I would like an honest result.

So with out further ado, poll #1:
