Over the Monster's Top 20 Prospect List
Well, it's finally done! After 3 months of voting, I present to you the OTM readers' top-20 Red Sox prospects list:
- Casey Kelly, RHP
- Ryan Westmoreland, OF
- Ryan Kalish, OF
- Josh Reddick, OF
- Anthony Rizzo, 1B
- Lars Anderson, 1B
- Jose Iglesias, SS
- Junichi Tazawa, RHP
- Michael Bowden, RHP
- Luis Exposito, C
- Stolmy Pimentel, RHP
- Che-Hsuan Lin, OF
- Derrik Gibson, SS
- Reymond Fuentes, OF
- Felix Doubront, RHP
- David Renfroe, SS/3B
- Roman Mendez, RHP
- Boss Moanaroa, 1B
- Tim Federowicz, C
- Madison Younginer, RHP
Not too shabby, if I do say so myself. Madison Younginer squeaked by Mark Wagner, Yamaico Navarro, Alex Wilson, and Will Middlebrooks in the last poll, likely on the back of being a starter who could be throwing 100 MPH fastballs some day. Obviously, that's a ways away if he ever even makes it into AA ball, but high ceilings are high ceilings.
Look for more on the list coming soon.

Man, the 11-20 half is so young
Plus a ton of guys who could have gone in there. Weiland, Fife, Navarro, Wagner, Wilson, Middlebrooks, etc.

I'm still not thrilled with #18
Will anyone here admit to voting for that guy?
Ben please tell me who came in second to Younginer....
That way we can ignore Boss in our minds and just bump up the others….

Navarro it is.
18 = Fedex
19 = Mad Young
20 = Navarro

I can live with that
Navarro and Middlebrooks would be my next two anyway, though I’m not sure in which order.
That was Hagadone...
Now he’s in Cleveland…

Doubront is a lefty, Richardson too but the one that we should keep an eye on this season IMO is Drake Britton (High upside there)
"That was a lot of fun… You just keep pounding balls into the gap. The one thing you don’t want to do is hit a home run. That’s a rally-killer." Jeff Francoeur
Good call on Britton
But it’s also not a huge priority with Lester being as good as he is.

Since when is a certain prospects a priority?
I mean a lefty is nice, but don’t we develop on talent not postion/mold/etc….?
