Ever since the start of Spring Training, it appears Wilyer has been feeling the weight of expectations. He let it get to him. Needs to go back down and get his head together. He’s far better than what he’s shown so far. I’m hoping Wikelman Gonzalez, Richard Fitts, and Luis Perales continue to develop. So important for the Red Sox to develop pitchers within their system.
I agree with most of what you've said I'm a little more pessimistic with timelines either because they go through set backs or because it's beneficial to the organization to give them more time either to lengthen their control or because they don't want to waste control on a year that won't matter. Generally I think that puts all these guys about 6 months to a year behind what the target year is usually listed. So that puts these guys more on track for 2025, late 2025, and 2026 then any time in 2024 but they are all getting closer. The O's might have the best AAA team this year but I think we will have the best AA team.
Yeah I think the AA team is the best in baseball or really close too it idk about a full year behind schedule I’m sure there will be some cases where these guys get knocked back a year we have seen it already, but fully healthy I think most is 6 months
David Sandlin and Miguel Bleis seem like the X factors this season. If they show out we should have the number 1 farm system in baseball going into next season
@@redseatradioa fan can dream. If Jackson Holliday and Coby Mayo graduate and they trade a prospect or two at the deadline I don’t think it’s inconceivable to see them drop. With Mayer Anthony Teel expect to not graduate, add in Bleis and Sandlin and possibly cespedes/naz zanatello you’ve got a lot of top 100 or borderline+ you hope you nail your pick in the draft as well as one pitching prospect takes a leap. It’s a non zero chance they have the top farm system
We should feel quite blessed here in "Red Sox Nation" that we root for a MLB franchise on the rise ... Though the Yankees have also gotten off to a great start at 6-1, I don't see this large market franchise having a sustained winning future ahead due to their short sightedness in caving in to free agent market demands while trading away their young minor league talent for established MLB veteran players ... It won't surprise me to see Hal Steinbrenner finally "lower the boom" and terminate Brian Cashman in early October after the conclusion of the regular season ...
@@redseatradio They'll again most likely trade a lot of that youth away next off season in order to keep the big club competitive ... Not the way to build a dynasty as they last did winning four World Series championships in 1996,1998,1999 and 2000 ...
@@benl9775 If the Yankees want to acquire a top young starting pitching talent from the Miami Marlins or Seattle Mariners, they most likely will have to part ways with one of the three players you mentioned ...
I think we stole Richard Fitts from the Yankees lol :) Love what that guy brings to the table. I think the Yankees will live to regret that move. Verdugo will do fine in N.Y. To have gotten both him and Weissner in that trade is amazing to me. So far I am disappointed in Abreu. I really thought he had a chance to excel this season. So far it doesn't look good. Makes me wonder what happened between last season and this one. I hope he rebounds strong. Like button blasted as usual. Now lets take out the Angels tonight! Thanks Corbin
Corbin, ouija board or Worcester Medium? Power crystal, tarot cards, or Crystal Ball? Why does so many RS fans want prospect predictions? The biggest part of your video was naming lower tier pitching prospects which demonstrates that these prospects questions are meaningless now. No Nick Yorke mention because he is the one trade chip actually get them some pitching in return. Why bring up any of these prospects this year?
Yes - hope they give WA time to solidify his skills in Worcester…both for his sake and for Tyler to play more and to make room for RobRef when he is ready.
Catching is the hardest position on the field and though his bat may be major league ready soon, the mental part takes time. Hopefully the Sox don't rush him like they did Blake Swihart. The rest of our prospects I think will be given time to develop as long as there's no need at the Majors....
I expect the Woo Sox to win their league championship this season... They have some talent there already, but when they get that influx of players from the Seadogs they will be unstoppable..
Fitts has a lot of upside potential. So in AAA, we have a minimum of 2 potential starters should they be needed, which I believe they will. The other starters in AAA should receive the coaching to get them to the next level. Kile Teal will be the person they work on the most. They want him ready as soon as possible. Red Sox catching is fine right now. Connor Wong has made an effort to improve his offense, so we should start seeing those results.. Reese McGuire is a contact hitter. He won't hit a lot of home runs, but he will make contact and have a good average.
Yeah I’m not too sure what their true timeline on teel is. Again they don’t need him and the longer they wait the more control they have. I would still be (pleasantly) surprised if he’s in the bigs this year
Hopefully these players stay healthy and keep progressing. Developing in the minor league is really going to help everyone. It's also going to be interesting to follow the minor leagues this season!
Yeah I think I’ll be paying much more attention to the minor leagues this year especially in the second half of the season once the big promotions hopefully take place
The Blaze Jordan disrespect is crazy. I feel so bad for Blaze cause he’s a major league guy I think. He’s hit at every level. He just doesn’t have a place on the Sox team.
Hitting in the minors is a lot different then the Big leagues. Blaze will most likely be used as trade bait when/if Sox seem deemed to make a trade. I see him getting his shot with another organization.
@@traci635 obviously hitting in minors is different, but he’s succeeded at every level. So it’s fair to assume he would adjust to the challenge. He’s definitely trade bait, but his value only goes up with the higher level success.
I encourage you to go read blaze’s page on soxprospects. If you’re interested in the Red Sox farm system they also have a podcast that’s best in class as far as Red Sox prospects are concerned. But they haven’t been as high on blaze rankings wise because he’s a right handed first baseman with an average hit tool. But they also said he’s lost a lot of baby fat this offseason so he might be able to make a jump soon if his hitting improves from being in better shape. Here is the summary from his page “Summation: Potential up-and-down bench bat. Ceiling of a bat-first, second division regular, likely at first base. Really has to hit, as he is maxed out and has a tough profile as a potential right-right first baseman. A favorite of predictive models due to his age compared to his draft class, elite exit velocities, and bat speed. Needs to show he can hit advanced pitching in order to tap into his raw power, which is his best tool. Will have to watch his conditioning but took a significant step forward in that regard entering 2024. Ultimate defensive position is likely first base, but has a better chance to be able to play at least part-time at third base now than when he signed.”

Best Red Sox info right here.....thanks Corbin for doing your home work🤓
Thanks for watching!
Wow Corbin! What a great video! I really appreciate all the work you did to inform us on the future of the Red Sox. Thanks for all you do.
Great information Corbin!! Thanks a bunch!! Have a great day!! Go Red Sox!!!
You too Dennis!
Great Video Corbin. Some pretty good talent on the way...
Yeah it’s gonna get really interesting really fast soon here I think
We need one of these guys once injuries start to come but let’s hope that’s not the case
I don’t think any of these guys are really the next man up if an injury occurs outside of Fitts and maybe at some point Wikelman
Good luck to all those players this season! Keep up the good work, Corbin!
Thanks Austin!
Good video Corbin. I keep coming back because good content.
Thank you!
Great info as always! I'm excited to see Richard Fitts develop and potentially earn a rotation spot.
Thanks! And yeah he’s a ton of fun
After today's injury your new Red Sox shortstop Vaughn Grissom.
What are your thoughts on Story’s injury??? Serious?
Definitely doesn’t look good. Wait and see I guess

Thanks Corbin, very interesting on keeping up on the minors. I would like to see Fitts called up sooner or later.
I think he gets in at some point this year
Definitely Miguel Bleis is number one. The ball explodes off his bat. Gary Sheffield power!
David Sandlin and Miguel Bleis seem like the X factors this season. If they show out we should have the number 1 farm system in baseball going into next season
Idk if we will ever be #1 with the orioles. But if sandlin and Fitts really take a step forward it could really change the outlook of the system

Not a bad start to taking out the angels!
I really hope the Sox hang onto Blaze Jordan. I’m the most excited for him and Anthony.
I love Blaze hope they find a spot for him, but he feels like a movable guy. We will see
I would suggest maybe next round giving current stats for the prospects.
Sure I would have this round but their season hasn’t started
Maybe Mayer better get ready . I didn't like what happened to Trevor last night. My heart broke when I saw that.

I don’t think so. Even if/when McGuire cools down they will more so focus on teels development than his need at the big league level
