[情報] Boston Red Sox Top 20 PRE-SEASON Prospects in Review
1) Lars Anderson, 1B, Grade A-: WTF?? .242/.335/.361 in Double-A, still
drawing walks but power has vanished, hitting .054 in the last 10 games. He
tore up this level last year at this time. Now out with a hamstring injury.
If anyone has seen him recently I'd love to get some input on this one. He's
too young to write off given his past, but something went wrong here.
2) Michael Bowden, RHP, Grade B+: 3.23 ERA with 78/41 K/BB in 109 innings for
Triple-A Pawtucket, 89 hits. Not really a lot left to prove here. Ratios have
slipped this year but it hasn't hurt the bottom line much.
3) Daniel Bard, RHP, Grade B: 2.88 ERA with 44/14 K/BB in 34 innings, 25
hits. Always had the terrific stuff. Just needed to improve his command.
4) Josh Reddick, OF, Grade B: .277/.352/.520 in Double-A, has shown some pop
in the majors so far, but plate discipline looks like an issue he needs to
address.
5) Ryan Westmoreland, OF, Grade B: Hitting .294/.399/.469 with 16 steals in
16 attempts in the New York-Penn League. Awesome tools, looks polished for
his age. Stock rising quickly.
6) Michael Almanzar, 3B, Grade B-: Combined .214/.270/.280 in rookie and
short-season ball. Good tools but very unrefined, grade looks too high right
now.
7) Ryan Kalish, OF, Grade B-: .266/330/.403 with 12 steals since promotion to
Double-A, including .311/.388/.547 in his last 27 games. Looks good.
8) Nick Hagadone, LHP, Grade B-: Traded to Indians in V-Mart deal. Small
sample size but recovery from Tommy John appears to be on track, 2.93 ERA in
31 innings, 40/16 K/BB. High ceiling, needs to throw strikes.
9) Yamaico Navarro, SS, Grade B-: 45 games at three levels, hitting combined
.250/.310/.417 but just .154/.222/.277 in 17 games in Double-A. Sample size
problems preclude a broad judgment here.
10) Oscar Tejeda, SS, Grade B-: .245/.303/.328 in 84 games in the Sally
League. Not showing any skill growth, stock is dropping.
11) Casey Kelly, SS-RHP, Grade B-: As a pitcher, a Grade B+/A- prospect. As
a hitter, a guy with great tools but poor skills, a standard high
ceiling/high risk Grade C. When I made the list no one was sure which way he
would end up, so I compromised. My guess is that he's never going to be an
adequate hitter, but he needs to figure that out himself.
12) Bryan Price, RHP Grade B-: Traded to Indians. Pitched great in the Sally
League before the trade, lousy in the Carolina League, has performed well in
two starts since switching from Salem to Kinston. I'd say C+ now.
13) Kyle Weiland, RHP, Grade B-: 3.77 ERA with 88/49 K/BB in 107 innings for
Salem. Good ground ball rate, other marks so-so, will be interesting to see
him in Double-A next year.
14) Stolmy Pimentel, RHP, Grade C+: 3.25 ERA with 91/21 K/BB in 100 innings
for Greenville, 110 hits. Love the
strike-throwing, but hittable.
15) Stephen Fife, RHP, Grade C+: 2.98 ERA with 59/8 K/BB in 63 innings
combined between Greenville and Salem. Another guy who throws strikes and
gets grounders. I like him.
16) Argenis Diaz, SS, Grade C+: Traded to Pirates in LaRoche deal. Hitting
.243/.304/.291 between Double-A and Triple-A. Bat looks very weak, stock has
dropped as a result.
17) Che-Hsuan Lin, OF, Grade C+: Hitting .263/.356/.373 with 21 steals in 29
attempts for Salem. Draws walks, steals bases, will knock an occasional
extra-base hit but not sure his bat will be good enough overall. Young at age
20, has time.
18) Luis Exposito, C, Grade C+: Hit .271/.329/.424 for Salem, just promoted
to Eastern League and is hot early, .412 in his first eight games though that
won't last. Can't say I'm super impressed at this point.
19) Zach Daeges, OF, Grade C+: Hit .172 nine games in April for Pawtucket,
out since then with ankle injury.
20) Richard Lentz, RHP, Grade C+: Command collapse in Double-A, 9.12 ERA for
Portland with 32/27 K/BB in 25 innings.
