2024 Prospects

[Dipre]

No. Why are people ignoring his previous 2 mediocre seasons in AA over a 25 game sample in AAA?

I'm really high on Yorke, but this.

I'm really high on Yorke, but this.

At least let him have sustained success for the rest of the year and be happy about 2024 going into 2025. Then give him a real shot to earn a spot on the Opening Day roster. That seems fair to me.

Well they did draft him as a 21 year old....about a whole year ago.

Early is a nice prospect, high floor but not sure there's much of an MLB future there. Kind of the Sox mo with pitching in recent years, I'd expect that profile with a lot of these "senior signs" but Early got slot last year.

He’s as much a break out as Meidroth.

Meidroth is feasting on the automated ball/strike system in AAA. His OBP is up almost 60 points from last season. BB's are up, K's are down. Don't know if he could carry that into MLB unless the ABS follows him.

Still wonder why Jamie Westbrook gets the call over Meidroth...

Cespedes was eligible to come off the IL today, but is still not in the Salem lineup. He has not played since being called up from FCL.

Let me do some research and see what's going on....

@BGlobeSports
Yoeilin Cespedes, one of the top prospects in the Red Sox system and in the midst of a standout season, has a broken hamate bone in his left hand that will likely require surgery.

Oh...

In the latest SP update, Dalvinson Reyes debuted at #43. He received a 450K bonus (largest pitching bonus this year).

16 IP
0.00 ERA
0.62 WHIP
17 K
2 BB

A guy we may want to start keeping an eye on. Yes, DSL numbers don't mean all that much.

Nick Yorke with 2 taters today in Worcester. Dude has to be better than Westbrook!!!!!

Westbrook was at .958 v LHPs before last nights game, and he’s on the 40, but it might be worth adding Yorke. He’s rule 5, this winter.

[mvp 78]

Add him in the winter.

[moonslav59]

Add him in the winter.

yup… same with others.

[mvp 78]

yup… same with others.

He seems to be a definite add now even if he slows down.

Agreed. It was not a given even 4-5 weeks ago.
