The Red Sox hold a tryout recently for Cuban prospect Alexei Ramirez. Ramirez a 26 yrs scaped the communist island earlier in the year and recently was given the clearence to sign with a ML organization. Ramirez who had been one of Cuban top HR hitters doesn't project like a middle infielder like he played in Cuba but as a CF. The Red Sox who might loose Coco Crisp or Jacoby Ellsbury in a trade this off season might be interested in signing Ramirez as their back up CF.
