Today we completed the first draft of the 2016 Top 50 Prospects for the 2016 Prospect Guide. A few hours later, we completed the second draft. And then we started on the third. And that will continue a process for the next month and a half that will see daily tweaks to the numerical rankings, until we finally settle on a list that will inevitably lead to disagreement due to personal preferences. This is exactly why I love tiered rankings better -- we rarely make mass changes to those after the initial rankings. That said, people love lists, so we go the traditional route as well.
