Dodgers 2013 Minor League Countdown: The Recap

Recapping my ranking of the entire Dodgers minor league system heading into the 2013 season

Puig was the #1 prospect on my list

Gary A. Vasquez-US PRESSWIRE

Even though I finished my minor league countdown a few weeks back, I wanted to revisit this list and provide a recap post so everything can be found in one place. This post is something you can bookmark, and if you ever have a question about one of the Dodger minor league players you can find the player on this page and click on the corresponding link, which I'll be including above each grouping of players. For each player I've included how they were acquired, their age, height, weight, their position, and where they are playing this season. For players who are not currently on a minor league team, I've taken a guess at where they will play or simply put "unknown".
