Most of my top prospects for the 2008 season had successful MLB careers. Of the twelve prospects, two are Heroes of Baseball, and seven are all-stars. Every player made it to the major leagues. Four of the players are still active, though two of them remain unsigned to an MLB team for the 2023 season as of February 2023.
Here’s a look at my 2008 Prospects collection, and the final results of each player’s career (players who are still active are in bold):
