No. But I could also say there's no rule that says anyone over 30 can't still be considered a prospect. Being logical, you would tell me you're not a prospect. Tell me what other players on the flip side of 25 are considered top prospects in baseball. I genuinely don't know.AAA is where non prospects who cant make it typically go. AA is the prospect level, therefore looking at the avg age is reasonable.

1 hour ago1 hr Why is it that acquisition of amateur players operates in a regressive capped way, such that poor teams get first pick and more money, yet the Dodgers still end up with the best ones? Is it that such systems are not guaranteed to achieve their stated goal in this great game of baseball?

You still haven’t answered the question of what 28 year old is a prospect in baseball.And the Dodgers are my favorite NL team. But I also don’t want to see baseball die.
