Suggestion Thread

Use this thread for suggestions. I have a list of Prospect Retros and Not a Rookies to work on, but feel free to suggest others. PLEASE check using the "search" function to see if I've already covered the player you suggest however.

I am going to be doing more draft stuff, and will make a decision about how to handle the Minor League Ball mock draft by Wednesday. My health is still not 100% and there may be changes this year, but we'll figure something out.

I still like the idea

Of looking at multi-sport athletes succeeded and failed

Stats are not a euphemism for tits

I like this, and moreover, I like the idea that you run different lists a la the AV Club’s Inventory feature, i.e., “Bo Jackson’ Hip Replacement: 11 multi-sport athletes who tanked at baseball” or “Leakey Faucets: 4 Players Slipping from NCAA to MLB without stopping in the minors”. It’s a lot more free form than your normal, but it would be very cool to see what commonalities you’d come up with.

Hank Conger vs Mike Scioscia

I find him a fascinating prospect because he’s a good bat / questionable defense catcher playing in an organization with a manager that has made it quite clear how highly he values catcher defense.
