So I guess there WILL be a Beckett Rookie Rolodex afterall

[011873]

A few weeks ago, I posted that one of my customers called Beckett and they said it would be in the current multi sport monthly issue.

Well it isnt and there was no mention about it which made him pretty pissed off.
So he called them and they said that due to printing problems, it will be in next months Baseball Plus.

Waiting for this:
Shelby Miller= Steve Carlton
Steven Strasburg=Babe Ruth

Do they still do prospect comparisons?

Just as long as they put it out I'll be fine :|

I thought for the past couple of years they stopped comparing prospects to major leaguers in the rookie rolodex.

Chris Marrero = Albert Pujols, that was a good one.

Pretty sure you are right Jim.

I think the comparisons added a really fun element, despite the fact that some were a little ummm... optimistic shall we say?

No printing problems whatsoever -- and the Rolodex was never, ever slated to appear in BSCM.

The Rolodex was moved to the following month -- Beckett Baseball issue No. 50 -- which will be arriving shortly.

Isn't the guy that makes these comparisons a MLB scout for an anyonomous team?
