[漁塭]2010 Top 20 Pre-Season Boston Red Sox Prospects in Review
Here is a review of the 2010 Red Sox prospect list, originally published
December 14, 2009.THIS IS A REVIEW OF THE OLD LIST AND PRE-SEASON GRADES.
THIS IS NOT A NEW LIST.The 2011 list and new grades won't be ready until
the season is over and I start writing the book.
1) Ryan Westmoreland, OF, Grade B+:Missed entire year following brain
surgery. He's hit off a tee,but at this point just living a normal
non-baseball life will be a blessing.This is the kind of thing that puts
it all back in perspective.Baseball is a game...a fun game, and a living
for a lot of people on and off the field.But it is still just a game.
2) Casey Kelly, RHP, Grade B+: 5.31 ERA, 83/35 K/BB in 95 innings for
Double-A Portland, 118 hits.Throws strikes and young for the level at 20,
but this is not a good season.
3) Ryan Kalish, OF, Grade B:.294/.382/.502 with 25 steals between
Portland and Triple-A Pawtucket,11-for-30 (.367) in the majors so far.
I love the power/speed/walks combination.
4) Josh Reddick, OF, Grade B:.246/.286/.429 with 11 homers for Pawtucket,
4-for-25 with six strikeouts in the majors.Poor strike zone judgment the
issue here.
5) Michael Bowden, RHP, Grade B:Bad in April but effective since then
for Pawtucket,3.65 ERA,74/33 K/BB in 101 innings,81 hits.Moved to bullpen
in July and very good so far, 15/4 K/BB in 15 innings, 3.00 ERA.
6) Junichi Tazawa, RHP, Grade B-: Tommy John surgery.
7) Anthony Rizzo, 1B, Grade B-: .265/.326/.481, 19 homers, 41 walks,
104 strikeouts in 441 at-bats between High-A Salem and Double-A. 38
doubles as well. More power this year.
8) Lars Anderson, 1B, Grade B-:Fast start at Portland (.355/.408/.667 in
17 games), but sagged after moving to Triple-A (.244/.334/.400). Can't
hit lefties at all. I have been pro-Lars but that is changing.
9) Reymond Fuentes, OF, Grade B-:.275/.332/.399 with 31 steals for Low-A
Greenville.Bad plate discipline, but speed and athleticism are excellent.
10) Stolmy Pimentel, RHP, Grade B-: 4.37 ERA, 81/29 K/BB in 105 innings,
104 hits for Salem. Like the strike-throwing and he's young at 20.
11) Jose Iglesias, SS, Grade C+: Hit .306/.340/.408 in 40 games in
Double-A, now on rehab assignment in the New York-Penn League due to
finger injury. Hits for average, walk rate low, power marginal,glove
reviews strong although statistical range factor is poor,granted minor
league defensive numbers can be funky. Young enough at 20 to develop
in many directions.
12) Derrik Gibson, INF, Grade C+:.245/.319/.322 for Greenville,
30 steals.Not a lot of pop in the bat, speed and athleticism are good.
13) Luis Exposito, C, Grade C+:.270/.348/.412 for Portland,35% of
runners caught, but a high passed ball and error rate. Blah season.
14) David Renfroe, SS-3B, Grade C+:.207/.284/.286 in the New York-Penn
League for Lowell.Weak.
15) Alex Wilson, RHP, Grade C+:3.40 ERA with 50/15 K/BB in 56 innings
for Salem, 43 hits, 1.53 GO/AO. But then a 6.97 ERA with a 32/19 K/BB
in 50 innings for Portland, 63 hits, 0.79 GO/AO,11 homers.On the
disabled list with a tired arm.Hard to know what to think here;he was
solid in A-Ball but awful after moving up.
16) Roman Mendez, RHP, Grade C+: Horrible for Greenville early in the
year.Mediocre in the NY-P after being demoted, then traded to the
Texas Rangers. Raw arm still figuring things out.
17) Pete Hissey, OF, Grade C+:.238/.310/.316 for Salem, 39 walks,118
strikeouts in 408 at-bats. 24 steals and has good tools, but lack of
refinement at the plate is a huge problem.
18) Yamaico Navarro, SS, Grade C+:.277/.360/.429 between Portland
and Pawtucket,17 steals, nine homers.Not an awesome season, but not
bad either. Command of zone has improved.
19) Madison Younginer, RHP, Grade C+:5.36 ERA, 24/21 K/BB in 44
innings for Lowell, 42 hits. Undistinguished performance,
but at 19 he has time to improve.
20) Stephen Fife, RHP, Grade C+:5.01 ERA, 71/37 K/BB in 111 innings
for Portland, 123 hits. I liked him a lot as a sleeper pre-season,
but he took too much ambien and is still sleeping.
21) Kyle Weiland, RHP, Grade C+:4.40 ERA, 100/39 K/BB in 104 innings
for Portland, 89 hits. ERA could easily be lower with these
components, FIP is 3.79.
22) Che-Hsuan Lin, OF, Grade C+:.274/.384/.343 for Portland,61 walks,
19 steals, 57 strikeouts in 394 at-bats. Still not showing much
power,but he has a good approach at the plate and an excellent glove.
Ryan Kalish looks great, and I still believe Michael Bowden will be
a good major league pitcher. But my faith in Lars is slipping, and
several others that I thought could break through (Fife, Younginer,
Hissey, Gibson, Pimentel) are stagnant or getting worse. It is too
bad Iglesias' injury precludes a larger sample size, and I'm still
uncertain about exactly how good he can be.
