Prospect All-Request – January 31, 2024Q1 – Mike W. (Patreon)Any advice for keeper leagues?Any Rule 5 guys to keep an eye on?Q2 – Chris1. I hear you talk about spin rates or chase rates for MiLB players and I want that data. Is Statcast data publicly available for MiLB players? If so where? (I think I would even pay for it) I know you can look it up for AAA games, but it's pretty much the only source I know about.2. Any DSL or J15, other then big $ guys, that you're hearing are potential impact players? 3. What do you think is/are the most important statistic(s) to look at when stat scouting MiLB hitters or pitchers?Q3 – RandMM (X)1. Maybe more a "Tim" question, and hopefully it's not "0.0"... New to .5 holds and I "don't pay for saves" - does "pay for holds" strategy work? i.e. Hader, $22 last year - multiple $7 [Tim saves poacher/high k/9/holds leader] instead? NLonlydynasty thinking Uribe/Kekering types?Q4 – Robby (Patreon and X)1. Colt Keith and Cayden WallaceQ5 – Nick (X)1. How much does Nick Yorkes value change with the acquisition of Vaughn Grissom?Q6 – Paul (Patreon)1. How much stock should we put in our analysis of minor leaguers' splits by month?For example, Rece Hinds and Cam Collier are two players who turned their seasons around with significantly better performances in the 2nd Half of the season. Hinds - 1st half = 255/311/515 and 39.2% K rate Hinds - 2nd half = 289/355/566 and 26.7% K rate Collier - 1st half = 202/310/320 and 27.5% K rate Collier - 2nd half = 283/382/387 and 23.7% K rate Do you think that's real improvement due to the player developing? Or do you think that's a result of the best pitchers getting promoted? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 2. Fun question - What's your favorite minor league park? What's the minor league park that you've always wanted to visit that you haven't seen a game at yet? Thanks for the everything! Keep up the great work!Q7 – David B. (Patreon)How good can Henry Davis be?
