I really like Cayones and Barrios, but they’re so amazingly young.
Plus… none of these players are Indian!

1. Starlin of the Slipstream (TRHN) Posted: December 02, 2008 at 09:53 PM (#3019207)Marte's got two years in toward Rule 5, and he's 20 already. How does it help the Pirates to start him at Bradenton next year?
-- MWE
I don't know whether anybody's ever compiled data on this, but I doubt the sort of guys who end up as above-average major leaguers typically spend four years getting through the R, short season and class A levels. If Marte spends 2011 at West Virginia, it'll probably just show he's basically Jamie Romak or whatever and he won't be selected in Rule 5 anyway.
