Okay, so I wanted to get at least some of the base information awards to continue over to next year, to help compare drafts against each other. Hopefully next year I don't run into the same issues I did when I originally wrote this article.
We finished out S46 with Oklahoma City (klown61455) returning to the World Series, this time losing to the Helena Hot Dogs (alanharwell). There were 15 Type A Free Agents to sign, and 7 of them landed in the first round; only two of them were in the top 25. And one of them was the last pick of Round 2, overall pick #99. Same theory seems to hold true, about 50% of the Type A's end up in the first round with majority falling outside the top 25. Take a look at our original recap and see how the players have turned out after what should be their first couple of years in the majors.
For the Records - bold indicates leader in that category.
