Over the course of the next
several days, PG Crosschecker will identify the top prospects that played in
the nation’s elite summer college leagues in 2007. Through personal
observation, contact with scouts and input from league managers, we’ll focus on
those players who have a chance to succeed at the next level—and beyond. The
depth of prospect information provided will vary according to the relative
strength of each league. In the Cape Cod League alone, we’ll rank in order the
top 100 prospects.
We’ll provide a link to each
league’s top prospects list as it become available. You can also link to each
league’s official website for more complete information on the 2007 season.
All player rankings and
individual scouting reports on the ranked players will be available on the PG
Crosschecker ‘Insider’ level.
