This is a the primer basically explaining how to interpret the data. From my understanding though this isn't going to be the top-x list. It's going to cover every teams player who has a legit shot at being a MLB player. So, while someone like the A's may only have 10-15 guys the cubs could have 20-25 or maybe even more.

What's great is they give not only current values but future values for the respective tools. Often you only get future values which makes it hard to tell where exactly someone lies.

They aren't going to release them all day one so it's probably going to be 1 a day or something similar. As such I'll post them as they come up more for me than anything as I'm into this sorta stuff and hate having to hunt down them.

Sorry for the delay I thought they were planning to release these faster than this but I guess I was wrong. Anyways, I added Colorado and Arizona to the original post. Also, on the player pages they've added the grades to players as you can see on Jon Gray's page here.

Houston and Minny were added. Think he said the cubs would be next but don't quote me on that.

Added the red sox. Guess they aren't doing in the order I had thought. The guy doing them had a chat awhile back and had mentioned they were going to do them in reverse record order but at the time the cubs weren't as high I guess. Presumably the White Sox, Philly or the Cubs are in fact next.

Said Bryant fits well in RF and would be average to above average defensively.

Most interesting part:
"Underwood has a big opportunity this off-season to get in even better shape and if he takes another step forward next year, he could be near the top of this list."

Ok so yeah i was really lax on this. Added Mets, Padres, Marlins, Nats, O's, Yanks, Braves, A's, Angels, Dodgers, Blue Jays, and tigers. Looks like all we're missing now is the Giants, Royals, Indians, Cards, Pirates, Brewers, and Mariners.
