With AA releases, A releases and next year's midseason self-releases, this coming season could easily become a "40 rookie year." There is some thought that PBUC may ask for 50 to look at instead of the 40 that has become more common.
I suspect it will be at least 40. Remember that there are something like 8 new slots for Long / Advanced A 'roamers' for getting folks started on the three umpire system.
