The Seam
The Question Waits on Sample — A 19-year-old catcher is hitting .400 in August at Double-A. Every shop that ranks prospects has a number on him. The outlet whose engine prices contact has nothing at all — no number, no grade, not one tracked ball — because below Triple-A, its own instrument is blind, and it says so on the page.

Scout’s note
Nineteen years old, from Pimentel in the Dominican Republic, Rainiel Rodriguez is hitting .328 with a .999 OPS and 23 home runs at AA Springfield — and FanGraphs ranks him No. 23 on its in-season board. Our engine can't rank him alongside that: AA ballparks aren't wired, so there are no tracked batted balls, no EV95, no percentile to read. The line is the line, and for a 19-year-old catcher it's a serious one, but the contact quality behind it is, for now, something we can't see.

The engine's view
The read: FanGraphs has Rodriguez No. 23 on its in-season board. Our signals come off tracked batted balls, and the ballparks are wired at Triple-A and in the majors — not at AA, where he is playing. That is not a thin sample, it is none: there is no percentile for him here and we do not rank him on one. The page is here because the player matters.
