**As you probably have noticed, you now have the option to link up your SB Nation account with Facebook and Twitter. You can read about the details with this SB Nation tutorial.
**I'm working on the piece about the 2010 Myrtle Beach and Rome rotations for this afternoon.
**Orders for the 2010 Baseball Prospect Book continue at a steady pace. Keep those orders coming in folks!
**I think the "Morning Notes" thing is going to become a standard feature for 2010, to keep you updated on what's going on. This will be different than the "Hit and Run" feature, which will focus on baseball items. "Morning Notes" is more of a meta-look regarding the daily and weekly plan.
**Do NOT jump to conclusions, but I have a question for you guys. If I was to offer something like a "mid-season book update", to come out in, say, mid-July with an update on how players in the book are doing, including grade changes, would you want to buy it? It would not be a bound edition but would be a .pdf. I don't know what the price would be yet, but I want to gauge interest to see if the idea is worth pursuing.

Yes, I would.

Absolutely
I have been a huge fan of your work for years, I have my 6th year and I would love a mid-year update, perfect for dynasty league purposes!
"God, I'm from Cleveland. When is it going to be our time?"
Yes.
I’d certainly be interested – would you also include some breakout players who weren’t included in the book?

I’m interested. The breakout feature would be a great piece to have.

I’d be interested as well. I really like the idea of it being a .pdf too.

If it's in that $10 range, I'd be all for it.
Coffee. The NEW Performance Enhancing drug for Sport's Writers. Just ask Ken Rosenthal.
You shouold do a piece about the potential Frisco rotation
Perez, Scheppers, Gutierrez (after his suspension is up), Beavan, and either Bleier followed by Main hopefully soon
Bryan Smith (12:17:17 PM PT): Justin Smoak and Josh Hamilton. The AL West might just have found their Bash Brothers, v. 2.0.
No
I wouldn’t buy it. I like the preseason book, but I don’t think a half season of data really is enough to give a good analysis of players in most cases.

Probably not
Initially I was going to say yes, especially with a ten dollar price tag but after some thought I probably wouldn’t get it. Like someone else said, a half season of data usually isn’t enough.

yes
What would certainly put it over the top is the inclusion of break out players who were not listed in the book or who move a great deal up. At the end of the year in keeper leagues I am always looking to dump older vets who i no longer need for long shot prospects.

YES
I would definitely purchase an in season update product by you.
