If number of current professional players is considered an adequate measure of a league's quality, I think the Cape League is in a class all its own. Its website indicates that in 2013, it had over 1,000 alumni performing at all levels of professional baseball; 255 of whom were on major league rosters. That would compare to 131 alumni of the very fine Northwoods League currently on major league rosters.
