With a team like Atlanta that has an incredibly talented farm system, it was tough not to see these guys in 2020, especially with no other sports on. Fans also didn’t get much of a look into the alternate training site. Even when guys like Sean Newcomb were sent down, there was no way of knowing who was progressing, who was playing well, and who wasn’t. 2021 will be a weird year for prospects. A lot of highly-rated guys could be behind schedule, and others could make big leaps that are flying under the radar. We’ll see how well these young players were able to prepare and improve on their own.
