Are sites like Baseball America and Baseball Prospectus worth the cost? Not looking for any inside secrets here, just wondering if they offer enough advanced scouting info, analysis, new material, etc. to justify the price.
Thoughts?
Worth the subscription fee?

Re: Worth the subscription fee?
Personally, I think Baseball America is definitely worth it. I subscribe to that and BP, but I'd call BA much more useful for scouting reports, since BaseballProspectus is largely Kevin Goldstein, who I'm personally not on the same page with on a lot of guys. BA, on the other hand, offers a much wider range of voices evaluating prospects, which is always better, imo. BP is useful for PECOTA and somewhat useful for statistical reports evaluating MLB performance, but I go to free sites like FanGraphs and Baseball-Reference before I go to BP, unless there are some of their custom stats I want to see for some reason.Tigers wrote:Are sites like Baseball America and Baseball Prospectus worth the cost?
