No. 3: Chance Sisco, C
2017 Statistics: .267, 7 HRs, 47 RBIs, 23 2Bs in 97 games (Norfolk); .333, 2 HRs, 4 RBIs, 2 2Bs in 10 games (Orioles)
The 2013 second-round pick ranked slightly ahead of Mountcastle in Baseball America’s Top 100 list. You’ll notice that I put Sisco, who will turn 23 in February, a notch lower in my rankings. That speaks more to Mountcastle’s performance in 2017 and higher upside, in my opinion, than anything else. Sisco, who was No. 57 on Baseball America’s list before the start of the 2017 season, made his long-awaited major-league debut in September. He struggled early in the year for Norfolk before batting .319 in June and July. Depending on what the Orioles do before Opening Day, he could be the backup to Caleb Joseph.
