December 11, 200916 yr AFL announces All Prospect team Danks was 1 of 6 outfielders selected. The others are Grant Desme (Oakland), Jose Tabata (Pirates), Bryan Petersen (Marlins), Chris Heisey (Reds), and Domonic Brown (Phillies). Edited December 11, 200916 yr by scenario
December 11, 200916 yr Cool, but when it's 6 outfielders from a 6 team league that's not very selective is it?

When it's an all-star league in the first place, it still means something to be picked ahead of your peers. Each of the six teams had 6 outfielders on the roster. So getting picked as an outfielder on the all-prospect team means you had to outplay 30 other 'all-stars'. For example... consider the players who weren't selected... Like Andrew Lambo, Dustin Ackley, and quite a few other very good players.
