How many HWB players will play in the major leagues?
Most of the Japanese and Korean players are already on their major league rosters. Regarding MLB players, Baseball America estimates that only 10.6% of all professional ball players reach the major league level for at least one day. Thus only about two ball players on each minor league team are considered prospects. MLB organizations send to Hawaii Winter Baseball only those A and AA players who they feel are in that 10.6% special group.
