The zoomers won’t believe this, but there was an era not all that long ago (within my own lifetime!) when we as baseball fans knew almost nothing about prospects. A couple of times a year Peter Gammons might toss a few lines about Frankie Rodriguez into his Sunday notes column; or if you flipped to the back of the program at Fenway, you’d find a single page on the farm system promising you that Donnie Sadler, Jeff Suppan, and Steve Lomasney were all destined for Cooperstown. But that was it! There was no Soxprospects.com or FanGraphs; there was no Futures Game.
