From Uganda to the state of Georgia, Black Baseball Culture is quietly moving in a positive direction. I hope this list emphasizes that fact more than anything else.
May i ask about the grading system? Why does every prospect has differing right number that i assume means potential, from 35-60 even 70. Also some prospect left number which i presumably intepret as present ability bigger to their right number? Does that mean the prospect ability might drop when they arrive to the major league?
Sorry in advance, this article series is my only exposure to prospect scouting and development. I loved the writing and narration of the prospects. All love, RBG.
