BP rolls out its expanded and enhanced fantasy coverage for 2013.
Last week we kicked off another season of fantasy baseball coverage here at Baseball Prospectus. We rolled out all the usual highly anticipated products, such as PECOTA, PFM, and updated Depth Charts. And later in the week, Rob McQuown’s brainchild, the Scoresheet Draft Aid, made its appearance for a second season here at BP. But that wasn’t all. We also introduced our preseason positional rankings series and saw debutarticles from two new fantasy writers here at Baseball Prospectus. It was a good start to the new season, but it was just that, a start.
In 2013 we plan to expand and enhance our fantasy coverage to include a number of new writers, guests, and features. Jason Collette, Paul Sporer, Josh Shepardson, Rob McQuown, and Paul Singman all return to the team from last year, while Mike Gianella and Bret Sayre begin their first year at BP, bringing plenty of fantasy baseball experience with them.

Top prospect compilation spreadsheets from the past several years
Over the past several years, I've put together top prospect compilations from sources across the Internet. As I get set to begin work on the 2013 version of the file (to be available on Google Docs and as a stand alone Excel workbook), I thought it might be fun to take a look back at the compilations from their inception.
