Good afternoon everyone, happy Friday! I’m posting in the hopes of bringing on a new wave of members to post to the Forum and to encourage the existing members to post more. We’re really striving to set an environment where visitors shouldn’t be afraid to post here for fear that their opinions aren’t in line with conventional wisdom, or that their prospect knowledge isn’t yet up to par with readers that have been following the site for a dozen years. Please join the forum and post away! Don’t be shy! (Side note: we’ll continue to aim to make sure that the board doesn’t devolve into an un-moderated disaster). I’d like to set two goals. First, I hope we can sign up 100 new members between now and the draft (June 12). Second, I hope to see 5,000 member posts between May 13 and the draft. For some background, we are at roughly 2,100 members, but only about 450 have posted this calendar year. Over the last 30 days, there have been about 3,820 posts. These numbers are down from previous years, which we somewhat expected due to some prospect graduations and trades. That said, there are still a lot of exciting topics to talk about, so feel free to start a new thread on any relevant topic. Many of the top 20 prospects don’t have their own threads yet. Also, if you feel that there are ways that we can improve the Forum, please feel free to post in this thread or PM me, Chris Hatfield, or one of the moderators directly. We are always looking for ways to improve, albeit with somewhat limited resources. Thanks for reading! Mike Please read this post and thread as it has been said many times this is the best Sox prospects site around.Great reading an insight into the future Red Sox Stars.

On days like these (e.g. Hanley DFA) I scan the comments sections of other websites (espn, etc.) and I remember why I come to this site. The posters here are informed, reasonable, and respectful. Thanks to everyone for making this place so good.

I can see that the number of people who visit the site and read the information provided and might even read the different topics being discussed in the forums out number actual members 7 to 1. That is a lot of people who are not participating, I urge you to get involved and voice your thoughts and opinions. You will be glad you did.
I am sure this will be moved to the appropriate thread as I couldn't find it.

Hey all, thought I'd introduce myself. Been following SoxProspects casually since 2004 or so. My early memories of the site are from when Lester and HanRam were top prospects, and the site still had MLB player comps for each prospect, which I enjoyed fantasizing over (as I'm sure did everyone else).
I stumbled onto the message board last year and have been lurking ever since. I've learned a lot about the Sox and baseball in general from hanging around. Hard not to appreciate the thoughtful analyses, memories from longtime Sox fans, and perspectives on the game in general. Anyway, what a season so far - thought it was time I signed up and joined in the fun.
