The rough draft of the book is done. Jeri is now editing. The last thing I have to do is some final grade revisions and the 50/50 list, but i can't work on that until the kids are in bed. I already know a couple of guys I'm going to be changing grades on, and will notifiy you later.
The best thing you guys can do of course is BUY MY BOOK! (use Jay Sherman voice, if you remember The Critic.)
We need as many pre-orders as possible to finance the printing of the book, and since the printing will start next week, that means we need more pre-orders! So order early and order often!
I'll be posting some excerpts next week.

Can't wait
For the 50/50 list, when should we expect it?

John
Where would James Paxton, Jake Eliopoulos and Jake Barrett have landed if the Jays signed them and what grades would they have gotten?
I forgot to ask this question when you finished their top 20. Sorry for the lateness.

hard to say
Hard to say….it would depend on if they got into pro ball and did well or badly, etc.
Absent any statistical evidence, Paxton would be no higher than a B. Barrett would probably be a B-. I like him. Don’t know about Elioipolous.
