Michael Harris just solo homered again to tie it in the ninth.

Grissom has been electric.

Multiple arms called up this season…

I think yes.

Certainly at or near the top in scouting and player development

Probably best in NL.

I think Seattle and Kansas City have the best in the AL.

The Yankees, Rangers, Orioles, and Indians all have better farm systems. Micheal Harris is awesome, but not even a prospect anymore. Pittsburgh is better too.

The Indians might have the best.

Maybe not the "best", but they've been very good for a very long time.

Maybe in the league, but my grandpaw has the best farm in the nation.

If you're talking about prospect rankings and who's in the system currently, the Braves are not the best in the league. If you're talking about the best farm systems over the course of the last decade, and who has produced the best major league talent, and whose players have succeeded at the major league level, I can't think of anyone better than the Braves.

They had by far the best collection of prospects a couple of years ago, but they are almost all in the majors now, either in Atlanta, or elsewhere. And the Braves are starting to build the prospect pool back up. Spencer Strider never got any real love from the prospect rankings, because he showed up as a 4th rounder, and went from Low-A all the way to the majors in his first professional season. Scouts didn't know what to think of him or what he was doing (there were a lot of excuses about him supposedly just blowing fastballs by bad hitters, but he kept kept doing it at every level) and now he's the front runner for rookie of the year. People barely knew anything about Michael Harris when the Braves drafted him, and now look at him.

So yeah, the answer to your question depends on whether you value rankings or actual results.
