Stats vs. Scouts

Brad Dowdy at No Pepper has a link to a debate between two scouts and two statistians moderated by Alan Schwarz of Baseball America. Eddie Bane, Gary Hughes, Voros McCracken and Gary Huckabay compare and contrast the ways both sides evaluate players. If you only have time to skim, be sure to read the sections on seeing fear in players and predicting major league numbers from triple A results.

Good exchange, I liked the part about high school pitching (non) prospects.
