I always thought that was an OOTP bias of ranking the top 100 players per team instead of the whole system's worth of players.

Yeah, I think Doc Love should have another really good year just hoping he can do it both at home and on the road. Rankin will be making a ton of starts for us, but I can't see him reaching the 47 they project for him. Think he'll have a nice year with us too and I'm really looking for him and Wilcox forming a nice 1-2 next year.
For the system I think you're right, it only looks at the top 100 prospects. I think Baseball America, ESPN, etc. do similar things, but I wish OOTP would have it branch out to at least the top 200 or so. We do seem to have a nice group of the top 100, as with 16 teams the average team would have 6.25 and I think our 14 was best.
