Seems fairly reasonable with some obvious surprises. They're seriously high on Swihart. Jackie Bradley is also ranked considerably higher than the SP.com list. Seems like Kalish probably wasn't eligible by their rules.
I like the more aggressive rankings of Jacobs and Cecchini. They absolutely raked last year and deserve their rankings, IMO.
The list won't be up on their website until Jan, but here it is from the print edition.link
1. Will Middlebrooks, 3B
2. Xander Bogaertes, SS
3. Blake Swihart, C
4. Anthony Ranaudo, RHP
5. Bryce Brentz, OF
6. Brandon Jacobs, OF
7. Garin Cecchini, 3B
8. Matt Barnes, RHP
9. Ryan Lavarnway, C
10. Jackie Bradley, OF
