I'm old enough to remember when Nick Yorke was considered a huge reach.

If you look at the most improved farm systems in BA. the top 5 , the Red Sox were a playoff team. The other 4 have work to do.
I’m curious how close Blaze came to entering the top 100.

Much more aligned with my view. Blaze at 5 and Binelas at 11. Paulino at 23 and johnaxton Garcia at 30

Law had pretty much the exact same take on the big three as everybody else. Maybe noteworthy that he is confident that Yorke is a second baseman.

Please do not post entire portions of content behind paywalls like that. Thanks. I quoted two phrases and a sentence in the Casas thread. I can change it if that is not ok.

I've never seen a fair use standard applied anywhere that didn't consider it kosher to post up to a couple of paragraphs or a few hundred words.

We don't have a blanket policy here. It's typically been case-by-case. And just to be clear, the point isn't just fair use, but also respecting the work done by other outlets.
When a Top 100 article is behind a paywall and talks about 4 Red Sox players in a decent amount of detail, copy/pasting everything said about the 4 players is unlikely to fly.
FWIW, nobody is in trouble or anything.
Edit: Thought it through more and the biggest problem was the fact that the quotes were for no other reason than to post them for those who didn't have subscriptions. If you want to quote an article, do it for reasons other than getting around the paywall.

For comparison, everyone's favorite team had 3.
Volpe at 10 Dominguez at 78 Peraza at 95

So this is interesting:
I'm not saying Casas is Torkelson, but I'm not sure he's 50 spots worse than Torkelson.

What i found interesting is how many catchers were in his top 100…. I don’t want to sit in on the chat but I wonder how much he rises those guys up due to position.

Casas’ power is a lot more projection based than Tork. 5 of his 13 AA HR came in a single series and 3 more came in 2 games in Hartford. He had prolonged periods of very little power. As you said, not sure that justifies the gap, but Tork feels a lot safer at a position where the bat is everything. Holding ranking aside it seems like a very positive report

So forgive me for thinking posting the 4 blurbs written about Red Sox prospects here, on the Soxprospects boards, was not taking advantage of the good folks over at the Athletic. Again given there were 96 other blurbs lol. Tbh I only did it because I’ve seen this done countless other times. Heck 10 or so posts ago vermontsox (a moderator) posted a full blurb from Baseball America (paywalled) which was 10% of the overall post. I realize I’m not in trouble or anything but I can’t not defend my actions when I feel a bit scapegoated.

Don't take it personal, we try our best to allow as much content on the site without going too far over, so it's understandable how you are thinking. You're not the first to have this happen nor the last. The crux of the law is less about the volume of the content and more about the value. 4%, 10%, 50% really isn't the issue, it's whether there's a perceived monetary loss to the copyright holder. Our opinion is that posting all of the Red Sox content from a year-end ranking is too much for the community to get free-of-charge. Said differently, we believe that The Athletic's lawyers would also ask us to take it down if they saw it.

Aaaaaaaaanyway, both Downs and Duran made Law's just missed list. Not terribly surprising on Downs given that Law has always been high on him. You could talk yourself into keeping him there, I guess, if you suppose the season just got away from him and refer to the AFL, as Law does, as him showing signs of life (and not what it was, which was him getting insanely hot for a week or 10 days then slipping back into the same stuff). The write-ups paint with the very broad strokes Law often does.

There's a lot of really good catchers in the minors right now. Baseball prospectus has 10 on their list(law had 12 and didn't count Ruiz). I know the guys at Baseball America and pipeline have talked about their being 8-12 potential catchers for the top 100.
