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:

  1. Casey Kelly, RHP
  2. Ryan Westmoreland, OF
  3. Ryan Kalish, OF
  4. Josh Reddick, OF
  5. Anthony Rizzo, 1B
  6. Lars Anderson, 1B
  7. Jose Iglesias, SS
  8. Junichi Tazawa, RHP
  9. Michael Bowden, RHP
  10. Luis Exposito, C
  11. Stolmy Pimentel, RHP
  12. Che-Hsuan Lin, OF
  13. Derrik Gibson, SS
  14. Reymond Fuentes, OF
  15. Felix Doubront, RHP
  16. David Renfroe, SS/3B
  17. Roman Mendez, RHP
  18. Boss Moanaroa, 1B
  19. Tim Federowicz, C
  20. 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)

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….?

You don't draft for need.

But that’s not to say depth in a system is not an issue.
