July 16, 201510 yr Keith Law did his midseason top 50 prospects piece today: http://insider.espn.go.com/blog/keith-law/...prospectsjuly16 As for Tim Anderson: 44. Tim Anderson, SS Age: 22 | B/T: R/R | Height: 6-1 | Weight: 185 Currently at: Double-A (Birmingham) It's the Shawon Dunston starter kit: not quite Dunston's arm strength (which might be the best ever for a major league shortstop), but similar range, quickness, bat control, foot speed … and reluctance to take a walk. Anderson came into pro ball with less baseball experience than most players, and he's actually a little more patient already than Dunston ever was, so the comparison isn't totally fair to Anderson. But it does give you a rough idea of what kind of player Anderson can be even if he doesn't make any significant improvements. Keith Law's Top 10 1. Corey Seager SS Dodgers 2. JP Crawford SS Phillies 3. Lucas Giolito RHP Nationals 4. Juio Urias LHP Dodgers 5. Joey Gallo 3B Rangers 6. Nomar Mazara OF Rangers 7. Tyler Glasnow RHP Pirates 8. Rafael Devers 3B Red Sox 9. Brendan Rodgers SS Rockies 10. Kyle Schwarber C Cubs
July 16, 201510 yr one of these years the Sox will have a five-tool outfielder make the list. Right? RIGHT?
