I can't get prospects 51-100 to show up to see where Trea Turner is at, but Carlos Rodon checks in at No. 12 on Keith Law's updated top 100 prospects list. It's an ESPN insider article linked below, but this what he had to say:

If you saw Rodon's start Thursday, you can understand why there was talk
about him going first overall in the 2014 draft (he eventually slipped
to the third pick). That slider is a wipeout pitch when it's on, an
offering on par with Clayton Kershaw's curveball or King Felix's
changeup. Rodon doesn't have that every time out, and his fastball
command comes and goes, but if he gets to the majors soon, he'll still
be able to miss a lot of bats even on nights when the slider is merely
plus.
