    Anthony was just recently promoted, don't see him getting the double bump. Bonaci has less than 200 AB's at A+, probably is there the rest of 2023 unless there are AA promotions to AAA. I could see Kavadas or Yorke getting called up at some point. Not sure either has 100% mastered AA though. The WOO roster has lots of issues and both guys could find fulltime playing roles there.

    Matt Duffy P Canisius College - unranked on most services, pitched for the Bourne Braves, he's Canadian, will be underslot

    "Why does this team keep drafting SS guys?" Shout the fans of a team with no clear plans at 2B or SS.

    I believe that's done intentionally. He spends on hitting because the value is retained in the prospect. There is less of a concern the prospect will suffer a devastating injury in the near future. Can use the prospect capital in the future for a trade. Lots of volatility with pitching, just look at Drohan this year.

    https://twitter.com/redsoxstats/status/1678467669572595712 More current in game power LHB, but scouts believe more raw power RHB. Haven't seen that he's only going to hit LHB.

    Now that Turner has a higher fWAR than JD, they have to find someone else to pine over.

    Not less likely to bust since they can all equally get injured.

    3rd Round - Antonio Anderson North Atlanta HS Switch hitter with power projected to move to 3b. MLB 77/BA 68/ESPN 72

    Constantly drafting for floor instead of ceiling. Seems to be Bloom's MO with regards to pitching.

    It would have been better picks plus additional money to spend in the draft.

    Day one is the fun day. Day two can be a little frustrating if you pay too much attention to who is left on the board.

    Why? His tools haven't changed. He's the same exact player with the same exact issues.

    Perales to Greenville. Blaze and Wikelman to Portland.

    Rounds 3 - 10 will be a cluster of slot to below slot guys we've never heard of. My guess is that there will be a few driveline college pitchers in there.

    As deserving as it would be, they are not DFAing Pablo...

    They have refined their scouting in recent years and are better now than ever. I'm not going to vouch for them back in the Lars Anderson days. Also, just looking at overall rankings isn't great as sometimes prospects just don't work out and sometimes the system has just been really awful. I used Flores and Jimenez as examples of them giving too much helium to toolsy DSL/FCL guys because sometimes they do get caught up in a hype train and then get stuck with a prospect being too high in their rankings for a while. Other times, they are too slow to move on pushing other guys up. They've really been a roller coaster on Blaze Jordan too.

    @SPChrisHatfield One interesting note as we look at potential Red Sox moves after the break: On his rehab assignment, Pablo Reyes DHed once and played 2B three times. He did not play shortstop. Not really sure what to make of that given that it seems like he's getting activated after the break. Arroyo DFA

    They said Teel would be 6th ahead of Drohan most likely. I'm assuming that Nazzan would be 18th ahead of Paulino, but have no idea.
  21. mvp 78
    So the sample is "SoxProspects guys that they really liked who made it to the bigs" and just that... Well of course if that's the entire sample then that's your entire dumb worldview. No sense in having in trying to have a nuanced conversation then.
  22. mvp 78
    SoxProspects have had their share of Antoni Flores and Gilberto Jimenez helium guys to be wary of. I like SoxProspects, you just need to take all rankings with a grain of salt.

    Pipeline had him 9th.

    Kiley McDaniel, ESPN From May: @BOSSportsGordo Kiley McDaniel released his updated Top 50 MLB Prospects. From the Red Sox: 3. Marcelo Mayer 49. Roman Anthony

    Right now, they are 2 games back. I'd consider dangling Duvall and seeing if you are bowled over with an offer, but if it's not a really great one (which I highly doubt it would be since he's not swinging it like early April) it's not worth dealing him. Since 6/9: 47 wRC+ Since 6/25: 67 wRC+ Maybe it doesn't matter since he hasn't been that good since coming back anyway?
