2007 Fans’ Scouting Report - Final

By Tangotiger, 07:22 AM

I closed off balloting for 2007, and incorporated all the ballots, around 1900 of them, which is sensational as far as I’m concerned.  The Internet Baseball Awards gets around that many ballots, and there’s much less to fill out.  I’m really thankful that so many people dedicate so much time to filling these out.  They are not only useful in terms of assessing players overall, and component-wise, they will also have historical value.  In 20 years, half the people won’t know about Endy Chavez or Ryan Braun’s fielding, but they will now.  One MLB team even told me that they were able to verify the results against their own scouts and came away fairly impressed.  There’s definitely a certain amount of value here.

I’ve got a main page that has links to all 5 years.  Soon, I’ll work on merging all the results so that each player will have his own 5-year page.  See you in August for the 2008 edition.
