Next year’s annual top 100 book is going to be fun to look at

Progress coming along slowly but pleased with the look thus far

Posting Konnor Griffin too in an attempt to quell any premature arguments over #1 in baseball

Working on player graphics for my offseason top 100 prospect book, I think it’s going well

What they’re calling me after two cups of coffee

At the very least I'm going to try to simulcast the slop I post on the other site here. I'm working on a ranking update, something I do very sparingly, and I'm excited to put it out sometime in the next two weeks.

Here's a preview:

About a month ago I talked my best friend into starting a baseball podcast. We’re both approaching 30 so it didn’t take much convincing, but if you follow me here you’d probably enjoy it!

It’s called the Prospect Promotion Incentive, in part a play on the reward for calling up players early.

Just wanted to show you all the sick ass graphic I had made for the Threecap series (next installment publishing Monday)

10 hours until the Top 100 Prospects book I’ve been working on for 5 months goes live on the Dynasty Dugout site.

Transparently, I’m super nervous (and excited, undoubtedly). It’s the biggest personal project I’ve ever done and I really hope readers feel it was worth the wait.

The top 100 book has a cover and it fucking rules (I’ve been staring at it instead of editing for like two days now)

I haven't posted here in a while, not by design but because I haven't done much posting anywhere.

I just finished the Jackson Jobe report for my top 100 coming in the next two months or so. Here's the full write-up:

Hit my peak bullet chess rating last night, hell yeah

Over two-thirds of my listening activity this year was dedicated to podcasts. I spend the majority of my baseball time following and writing about minor leaguers, so these pods are a nice mix to keep me up-to-date on the big league goings on. Strong recommend for all, obviously!

Gentle Men (players that have exceptional bat-to-ball and swing decisions but don't do enough damage):

Failure to Launch (players that have outstanding data but hit the ball on the ground far too often):

I’m quite proud of this blurb from March

Here’s a leaderboard of players who produced pulled fly balls over 100 mph at the highest rate in Triple-A last year.

You need to layer in bat-to-ball and swing decisions, but if you throw a dart here you’re looking at a promising bat.

Can you guess the missing names?

Here's a snippet of my report on Jasson Domínguez for the annual top 100. Two important things coming to light as I dig in:

1. Most of the injury rust I'm observing was in swing decisions, his EVs actually improved post-UCL
2. He's excellent -- elite, even -- at lifting and pulling
