White Sox: Anderson slips, Fulmer moves up in MLB Pipeline's 2016 prospect rankings

Share

Tim Anderson made a tremendous amount of progress in 2015, enjoying a breakout year in Double-A Birmingham (.312 BA, 5 HR, 46 RBI, 49 SB over 125 games).

But that didn't help him make any moves up in the latest MLB Pipeline prospect rankings.

Anderson, after starting 2015 as the No. 76 ranked prospect, finished last season at No. 38 in all of baseball but moved to No. 47 in the 2016 preseason Top 100.

The White Sox selected Anderson in the first round (17th overall) in the 2013 MLB Draft.

Pitcher Carson Fulmer, the Sox top pick from last year's draft, moved up from his season-ending ranking (No. 42) to No. 38. 

Fulmer spent most of last season in Single-A+ Winston-Salem after being drafted in June out of Vanderbilt. In 22 innings, the right-hander posted a 2.05 ERA with 25 strikeouts and a 1.136 WHIP. 

In positional rankings, Fulmer is listed as the No. 9 RHP in the minors while Anderson did not crack the Top 10.
