Sounds like an iinteresting longshot. Seems to have some tools at any rate. We'll see I guess.

Not worth the internet bandwidth used by the story.

Don't be a dick, it's Sox-related news, it's worth a one-liner or two. This guy's only 22, if he starts at Salem (ambitious, but possible) he'd be on track agewise, if he starts in greenville he's only a year behind. Either way he's young enough that you can let the tools and performance sort out what he is, and it's nice to see at the very least that Theo's still doing whatever he can to bring talent into the minor league system. Realistically this guy's probably a Joey Gathright redux, but why not give him a chance to prove if maybe he's a little more?
