The second is also something we can do something about, to some extent. We can review the frequency field of the schools db to make sure it matches rl data.

Might be a project for you, if you want, at some point.

I don't necessarily agree about the first rounders not coming from small schools in non-baseball state though.

How about Brandon Nimmo from Wyoming, whose HS didn't even have a baseball team? He's not the only guy like that either, by a long shot.
I didn't mean never, I just mean very rarely. There have been only three draft picks since Wyoming since the turn of the century, and all of them came from rather large high schools. If you're finding kids from high schools in the most remote parts of Wyoming of 150 students, then I'd find it a bit odd.
