Oh, you mean the one who is having his first healthy season this year in about 3-4 years and had an ERA well over 4 in AA with sub-standard stuff? Yeah, I'm really impressed. By the way, his name is Chien Min-Wang. |

It wouldn't be overly crazy, but I'd like to see him dominate AA and AAA for 1/2 seasons next year. Still, I think he has the most upside of all our prospects. That's right, I said it. That includes Hanley and Manny D. I think this kid can be a very similar pitcher to Roger Clemens. THE Roger Clemens. |

Other than his 2 plus pitches (Fastball and Slider) what other pitches does he throw?

He has a plus cut-splitter as well. He also working on refining a changeup. Combine that with the fact the he has very little wear and tear on his arm due to just becoming a pitcher in college. This kid is going to be something to watch. |

Cut splitter? Sounds pretty good.
What do you think our top pitching prospects are?
Mine are
1. Papelbon
2. Alvarez
3. Lester
4. Declarman
5. Sanchez

Re: Jon Papelbon
This is comical...a yanks fan trying to compare the Yankees prospects to the Bosox prospects. Yo dude, the Yankees prospects never make it to the Yankees roster...they always get traded for some overpriced player. Navarro being the perfect example. Cano and Duncan are the only two prospects Yanks prospects worth talking about, and they can't carry the jock of most Bosox prospects.

Re: Jon Papelbon
By the way, Pap was Baseball America's #91 overall prospect.
