age 27 as cut-off date?




i'm wondering at what age do you give up on prospects that haven't made it yet? .. and is there a general # thats good to use as a rule of thumb?

i've always heard that 27 is the year for alot of players, but that seems to be more for hitters.. that also seems like an awfully long time to wait if the player hasn't made it yet.... do pitchers have any age to go by? i.e. Cliff Lee was a late bloomer, possibly all of his owners dumped him in dynasty leagues with deep minors systems .. i hate seeing mistakes like that, so i tend to wait on alot of players too long.. i'll keep players like Matt Gamel. Chris Marrero, Chris Nelson, and Max Ramirez in favor of many new pedigree prospects in their teens/early 20's... sometimes its too tough a choice.. is this a bad strategy?
