5.0 out of 5 stars AN INDISPENSABLE TOOL, May 13, 2009
For this veteran Minor League Baseball writer, the annual Baseball America Prospect Handbook is an essential reference for keeping tabs on the best young players in the game. As Minnesota Twins General Manager Bill Smith puts it, scouting and developing talent is "an inexact science," so rating the prospects can't be far behind. Yet Baseball America does an incredible job, and the reviews are written up in a snappy style that delves into a player's personality as well as his potential for a major league career. Add in the depth charts and the explanations of how scouts draw their conclusions and you have a 20-game winner every year.
