Just out of curiosity, I noticed many possible prospects were left out of the projections list for hitters/pitchers.
This is Okay, I was just wondering why and if they will be in the final version.
Oh and when do you expect Lawr's top 250 list? Really looking forward to that! I'm a big fan of MILB.

Re: Prospects in the Projections
Once we are confident a player, be it a prospect or a veteran, will get playing time, we will add him to the set. We should have some pieces talking about specific situations soon.
That said, our database has a transalted projection for everyone that played in Double-A or higher, so later in the spring, if we are not projecting someone, we may be able to give an "off-the-record" projection if asked.
We will also talk about this closer to auctions/drafts, but including prospects likely to be called up in mid-season can skew a projection sets' values if they are not eligible to be picked up in the draft/auction. Details on how to handle that will come.
As for the top-250, it is being featured in one of the industry trade mags and its release will coincide with the mag hitting the shelves, likely early January.

Re: Prospects in the Projections
Then as a follow-up, once the top 250 list is out, will the author be available to take any questions/queries on specific prospects featured on it?
Thanks!

Re: Prospects in the Projections
I'll let the author, my long-time friend and now partner Lawr speak for himself, but it is a very objective, numbers driven list which makes it very interesting as it usually looks a bit different than what you might find elsewhere. Historically, I have found it most helpful as a means to get some of the younger guys on my radar.
