Beltre and Tejada potentially are that good that they have to be included on the Sox top 50 prospects. For example Baseball America has them #20 and #22 that's way too high for now, just like they have Lars Anderson at #5 its way too high. The Sox system doesn't lack depth as a matter of fact there's only 3 or 4 prospect only my list that may not have a decent ceiling, but that they put up good numbers.
To answer the question on Jason Place, he one of the few Sox 's hitting prospects that are consider to be 5 tools player. I agree that Pedroia and Martinez are prospect that the organization could trade and it won't a big impact.
I don't want to sound like a broken record, but Sox.com to have Andrew Dobbie as the #26 prospect in the Sox system is like stealing money from its menbers.
