Edited February 11, 20179 yr by Jose Paniagua

Guess Fulmer is out of their top 100

Of note, Martes & Tucker ranked #15 & #19 respectively.

Is that the lowest (worst) we've seen on Kopech and Giolito?

Yes, but highest for Lopez & Collins.

I'm only happy when it rains...

What's the over under on WAR for those guys combind? Man, it feels like it should be around 30 conservatively, that's pretty amazing.

Total career or annual average?

Is that for real? An average of 6 WAR across them, annually?

I just think 30 collectively for their total careers is pretty modest.

Not when you consider that 2 or 3 of those 5 are likely to never amount to anything. If one of them turns out to be average, and one of them turns out to be great, you could be looking at 30 WAR combined.

Yea, well sign me up for the over.

30 combined WAR isn't ceiling though, it's just typical likelihood, and I think that's damn good.

Nice to see Collins getting some love.

 

 

Harold Reynolds, commenting on Moncada at #2, said he felt he should go north w Sox and learn on the job rather than at AAA. He felt playing in Boston last year should benefit him despite the poor showing because of exposure to guys like Ortiz and Pedroia.

HR is a moron.

Was not surprised to see Giolito ranking as Cooper often says he likes Lopez more than him.

? Maybe you mean Kopech, but I'm pretty sure Cooper has said he's less familiar with Lopez than the other big name prospects they've acquired. And I know he said he wasn't sure if Lopez was a starter or a reliever yet.

No, JJ Cooper.

Well I'm an idiot, carry on.

I think one of you is talking about JJ Cooper and the other Don Cooper.

middle case, and yea, it's good.

Not overly surprising, but four Sox prospects ranked in the top 150 on at least one writer's list, but didn't crack the overall top 100 list. They are Basabe, Burdi, Fulmer, & Hansen.

Reynolds is a moron

 

I do not care if Moncada homers in EVERY single at bat in spring training, the Sox must wait until late May to call him up so they do not start his service clock and gain and extra season of team control

 

The Sox are not contenders this season, why burn a year of control for any of our top prospects?
