Where do you guys mostly draft from? I've had trouble finding good prospects to keep.

I actually choose from all prospects most weeks. I don't care where a guy comes from or how long he will be in my minors, I only care about top end potential and that can come from any pool.

I'm wary of Asian postings b/c those guys seem a little more likely to get "stuck" in the low minors. I don't like having a 24 yr playing Rookie ball buying liquor for all the teenagers. Its bad for development.

Wouldn't surprise me if established teams only keep 1-2 of there own pulls per season. If your minors are all 13s-14s, takes a pretty decent pull to be more than a side-grade.

Is this year's draft based more on luck?

Probably no more or less than any other year. When it's all tallied up, I got about the same group of prospects from this years draft as last years. One 14 potential guy and two 13's. The rest were 12 on down and were cut. Last year was the same, one 14 and two 13's with the rest cut.

Why do Asian prospects get put in the lower end of the minors when they are 22-23?

Why do the Asian prospects train slower than the other prospects?

It's not that they are low in potential or has very low skills.

It's that they are more likely to have low diversity in talent when they are easily depleted in numbers unlike the US players or the Latin-Americans

I've drafted a couple of times from asian pools, but i've never found a decent player.

I usually draft from college and from latin academy. Now that i've more guys ready to refill major roster, i'll probably switch from college to high school.
