This was a great story, and has inspired me to watch some of my prospects more closely. I seem to be better at wrecking some prospects than improving them. A couple of times I've pulled up AAA pitchers with decent ratings (4s and 5s) to fill injury holes, watched them struggle, figure that I'll send them back to AAA for more seasoning, and suddenly they are no longer good enough for AAA, and languish in AA for the rest of their careers.

In my current league I've got a few home-grown prospects, some of whom may end up being superstars (my new RF is hitting .500 through 48 ABs in 2009, after hitting .270 in 100 AB as a late season callup in 2008), unfortunately I didn't really track how they started.

Thanks again for the great story. I love reading these histories on the board.
