You can't follow prospects without the desire to want to compare a player you're following to one you've already seen. It's just natural.
It's also unfair, at least the way it's typically done.
So I've decided to take comparison's a step further, and all it really takes is time and effort. Over at The Hardball Times, I've published my formula for how to make effective comparisons of prospects. It's not rocket science by any means, but it does explain my thinking and hopefully a new way of looking at player comps.
I will be posting player comps periodically at THT, and will provide links to them here at MLBPW, as well as a link to the initial explanation. You can find these links on the sidebar to the left.
