Boston Red Sox Top Ten Prospects
| Q: |
William from Lowell, MA asks:
Where do you see the Red Sox top pitching draft picks (vaughan, papelbon,
marshall, corn) this year and who will move the fastest? Thank you! |
 |
| A: |
Jim Callis: Those guys will all go to low Class A. I like Jon
Papelbon's stuff the best and think he'll move the fastest, though if
Brian Marshall stays in relief that's typically a quicker path.

| Q: |
bill from norwood MA asks:
Hi Jim, Does Marshall have the stuff to be a starter? Is Luis Mendoza a
prospect with that low k rate? Thanks. |
 |
| A: |
Jim Callis: Probably not on Brian Marshall. Mendoza's lack of
strikeouts are puzzling but he also didn't give up many hits last year and
a lot of opposing teams like him. He'll be in my 11-15 range, and I bet if
he doesn't pick up his K rate next year, he's used in a trade.
