For every prospect the time is clocking.
There are 3 clocks or even more.
Rule 5 clock (must be on 40 man roster)
Options (has only 3 years where he can be on 40 man and not on 25)
MiLB FA.
If a prospect can not be a 2 WAR player till that time he is not valuble to a team who wants to win.(team like phil or M's) I think for KC or Nationals a 1 WAR player may be valuble but we are talking for teams who want to win.
Sure without the clock Saunders is more valuable.
