Ed Wade Spurns Bonds

In the rotoworld feed on the left sidebar, you'll see that Ed Wade has passed on signing Barry Bonds to replace an injured Carlos Lee, preferring Darin Erstad as a stopgap, which begs two questions. Is Darin Erstad better than Barry Bonds? Is Ed Wade smarter than Ham Sandwich? Which would you rather have?

Project Prospect's Midseason Top 50 List

I just posted this on my blog, but I don't see it posted here yet. Project Prospect has put out its Midseason Top 50 Prospect list, and it features Madison Bumgarner at #14, Tim Alderson at #20, and Angel Villalona at #46. Three prospects in a top 50 list is certainly a welcome sign after years of farm system mediocrity. I’ve always been very high on Bumgarner, but I think Alderson is an over-rank here. I like Angel at #46.

The list also has Tim Beckham at #18 and Kyle Skipworth at #47, so Buster Posey-- if he had signed-- would be what? Mid 20s? And how do you think this list compares to Rotoworld's?
