From personal experience, they're mostly misleading
4:01
What you need to know are which prospects have game breaking ability
all the rest of them don't matter. So we're talking like 15 to 30 guys at a given time
after that it's just tool mixes interacted with breakout potential
A lot of eventually good players are never hyper-touted prospects

and people miss them because they're too focused on lists

(12 Teamer) If Soto finishes the year with more walks than Ks, top 5 in wRC+, and 20+ HRs, will he go in the first round next year?
Brad Johnson
4:02
No.
I'll add this. Under those conditions, somebody will take him top 12 thinking they're a friggin genius.
4:03
But it's a foolish play
Outside of a few fringe scenarios. A startup dynasty for example.

Peraza had a great hot streak going but now is just 1 for 2 on SB attempts over the last month. Worth a hold (using him as Util in 5x5) or move on to someone like Mallex Smith?
Brad Johnson

I'd take Mallex over Peraza.
On that note, I need to wrap it up and get ready for some MiLB baseball

Thanks for playing.
