This represents value of players based on the combined evaluation of a number of sources. Jason runs away with the best milb organization but with Meadows, Robles and Torres sitting at the top of his milb team that shouldn't be a surprise. While some do well based on having a blue chip prospect others find themselves in the top of the hunt with amazing depth.
You had far too much time on your hands last night on that flight :)
Having said that, I would love to know what methodology you used for this...
This is my nerdy friend Darrell. Geez, I love this guy. :)
Pretty good stuff.
I'll just say that I'm in favor of this. I think the research, methodology and results are excellent. I can't find any problem here at all. :)
