Well, since West is a semi-big prospect, and since this hasn't been updated in forever, here's his most recent stats:

J.West	.293	.488	124	461	60	135	225	28	4	18	68	37	83	0	3	7

 

He should probably be called up next year, since his stats look half decent. He could certainly work on that k/BB ratio though...

[CrespoBlows]

I'd promote him to Portland, then to Pawtucket 3/4 through next season. If he shows he can hit, he can take over for Millar in '06. Long time from now though

His highest big-league upside is probably Millar. He really tailed off his stats in June-July, but he began to pick it up again in August.

 

I have a feeling most Sox fans would hate him due to how streaky he is. He's not Varitek or Shoppach streaky with lots of highs and lows. He's Millar streaky, one great month and then he takes a nap the rest of the season.
