Maybe that's why he projects as the 5th prospect- which would be the lowest rating of any site anywhere
1Bb. How is his strikeout number the same as Baez's?
1C. And the same as Soler's? That doesn't seem right at all.

2. Does pitch framing not help a catcher's rating? If Montero for example has the 2nd best pitch framing in baseball last year, his ability is only at 65?
1) That's an AI thing. Bryant is rated highly and therefore the AI puts him on the 25 man roster.

Regarding the 5th prospect rating, do you have scouting turned off?

Maybe Soler needs a slight boost, but that's beyond my pay level.

2) Montero's pitch framing rating will be from PECOTA, I'd guess.
