Agreed. Also keep in mind baseball probably keeps track of more stats than any other sport, making it easier to spot potential.

I once read an interview with a Major League scout who said he relied heavily on the numbers. He basically said, "We can get any stats, on any of these guys, at any minute, and find out exactly where they are, and if they have the numbers for the big leagues."

Talk about pressure. . it was an eye opener.
