I consistently amazes me how he has such a wide audience.

I guess Eklund does too, so anyone can just throw anything out there, as long as they are persistent enough.

Pronman reminds me of an Instagram influencer. He was one of the first to the table to do what he does, which is "aggregate the opinions of ALL of the scouts" he apparently talks to.

I have my doubts. I think he is a content creator. And hes effective at making people think he has a clue, while having no clue at all.

If I was to equate him to an old school poster here, it would have been MMF. All talk, no substance.
Incorrect.
He attends a ton of games, watched these players a lot.
He is not an aggregator of other view points. His articles are his opinions.

He also is well respected in the scouting community.
