Yeah, I realized once that idea was mentioned that this whole poll idea was probably unnecessary. I just wanted to make as few releases as possible to keep from having people get into a league then want to start another when another set is released.
As for how many prospects, this set doesn't add too many guys. It is basically an MLB player ratings fix with additions of 40-man roster guys left out of the beta set. There were some ratings adjustments to minor leaguers (though I've concluded the top 100 prospects list is just frustrating, because guys are on there who are not rated anywhere near guys who aren't on there...Adam Wainwright is the biggest example of a guy not on there who I have rated better than a lot of guys who are.)
I also added major leaguers who missed all year last year (John Franco, Turk Wendell, some others).
If you absolutely need to start a franchise right now, tonights set should be good for that, though I still suggest waiting until the opening day set. For that one I will set lineups and rotations appropriately. Right now it's kind of close but not right since the computer will change everything anyway and it will still be updated.
It'll be late tonight, but it'll be here later. And of course, any suggestions/comments are welcome.
The contracts addition will be called 1.1 instead of 2 (calling it an all-new version is kind of silly, I think).
I'll be back later.
