Thanks for posting.



Max Moroff and Reese McGuire on the list.

Does this mean that Moroff is the Pirates' 5th best prospect? Or 5th best minor league career so far?

For a second there I saw Vladimir Guerrero and thought your prospect list was out of date. ;D

its a an algorithim that attempts to predict what each player that has yet to surpass rookie status, will achieve in terms of WAR in their first 6 years in the big leagues.





i'm sure it is far from perfect, but it takes into account other top prospect listings, but utilizes more actual minor league stats and really is heavy on weighing the age of a player relative to the minor league level he is playing/played at. I have to read more into it as well
