Something with the Arizona Fall League

Is it a precursor to success? Maybe some highlights about each team.

I’ll re-suggest the tri-retrospective of Cain/Billingsley/Garza. They were all top twenty-ish prospects a few years ago and have become really similar big league pitchers. It would be cool to see how the outcomes match up with the reports.

Jonathan Sanchez prospect retro (updating his mid-2009 Not a Rookie). How similar is Sanchez to Cliff Lee, as they’re both lefties with a 90-94 mph fastball/curve combo who struggled with control in college and the minors, but always posted stellar K/IP rates?

It was this:

Good hitter, thought of as too small and that his minor league power wouldn’t translate to bigs enough to play everyday in a corner, and not good enough defensively to play center . Tigers traded him to Dodgers even though he was best hitting prospect in system because he was a tweener, for a wild loogy. Who couldn’t get anybody out.
Dodgers didn’t want him, gave him to Reds for less than Tigers got for him. Then the Reds out and sold him to the Marlins.

Latin American Prospects

Especially at the lower levels, are there any differences in the ways in which you evaluate them, as compared to American high school kids? Any extra red flags? Any extra emphasis on skills v. tools? What would it take for a Latin American kid to get the respect that Bryce Harper has had as a teenager, if that’s even possible?

Fast Forward the KC Royals

With so many quality players in the system, what will the KC Royals look like in 5 years?
