BA rates him as a 55/High, with 5-tool upside.
And the probability of him reaching that level is what - 10%? Azocar looks like a prospect who slots in the middle to bottom of a team’s top 30 list because of his potential and current production. His bat hasn’t shown much yet, and while I get that he’s young and in the low minors, guys with real futures don’t often look as bad in the low minors. I’m unimpressed. ———————- I’ve found that I disagree with BA more and more. Do you periodically review their rankings over time to see if they remain the gold standard? I know they get a heavy weight in your valuations, but man do they have some head scratchers lately.
Yep. And another outlet we respect, Oyster Analytics, recently confirmed that BA's approach is sound, and correlates well. The "High" risk next to the 55 represents the lower probability of making the big leagues.
Gotcha. Thanks for the info.
