And he's hitting so far this season. Still young, so he's growing into his body still. Love him as a prospect.

If I could pick one guy in the system and the baseball gods would let him make it, it'd be him

Really? Not Courtney Hawkins?

I can't wait to see this kid live in June.

I'm talking from a purely aesthetic point of view. I love watching great defensive shortstops. (If it helps, assume for the scenario that whomever you pick, they will have the same value.)

I agree, I do love to see defensive wizards in the infield.

Remember the name Cleuluis Rondon. His defense is Major League caliber at SS. All about how he develops as a hitter

Batted a robust .168 and struck out 86 times in 120 games in High-A Winston-Salem.

 

Awesome defense, and still young at 21, but he needs to hit much more frequently if he wants to make the majors some day.

Future Sox weekly update indicates he has been released.
