Former UConn Baseball Players Among Top 100 Best MLB Prospects
2012-02-10 04:11:00 Sure our primary focus here is on the UConn Huskies men's basketball, women's basketball and football teams but that doesn't mean we don't keep an eye on the other sports that UConn has to offer. While going through Keith Law's Top 100 MLB Prospects earlier in the day, I noticed a few names that are familiar to the UConn baseball team. Those names are George Springer and Mike Olt. Law ranks Springer, a member of the Houston Astros organization, as his 60th best prospect. Olt, a member of the Texas Rangers organization, comes in at No. 75. Here's what Law has to say about Springer: Springer -- whom the Astros took with the 11th pick last June -- was one of the toolsiest college position players I've ever come across, with a solid idea of what he was doing at the plate, sliding out of the top 10 only because of questions about his swing mechanics. The UConn product is an outstanding athlete, an above-average runner with a plus arm and plus raw power. He has tremendous bat...

Keith Law Ranks Red Sox Minor League System As 19th Best in MLB
2012-02-10 04:02:00 Given that they've made some big trades that included prospects over the past year or so, I'm not surprised at where Keith Law of ESPN (PDF) ranks the Boston Red Sox minor league system. He has them as the 19th best in all of MLB. Here's what he had to say about the Red Sox minor league system: This system is terribly thin up top given the money the Red Sox have spent in the past few years on amateur players. I do see a large group of prospects from low Class A and below that should produce a couple of breakout prospects in 2012, including Brandon Jacobs, Garin Cecchini, Henry Owens, Matt Barnes and Sean Coyle.

Two Red Sox Minor Leaguers Named To Keith Law's 2012 Top 100 MLB Prospects
2012-02-09 18:49:00 It's that time of year where the various media entities who cover Major League Baseball and the minors leagues put out of their top prospects of each organization and also a list of the top prospects from all of the organizations. Earlier this year, MLB.com released their top 100 MLB prospects and that list included four members of the Boston Red Sox organization. This time around, it's Keith Law of ESPN's (ESPN Insider link) turn. Included in his list of 100 top prospects are two Red Sox farmhands. They are shortstop Xander Bogaerts who comes in at No. 62 and catcher Blake Swihart who comes in at No. 100. Here's what Law has to say about Bogaerts: The Red Sox were aggressive with the Aruban-born Bogaerts, promoting him from the Dominican Summer League right to full-season ball, where only Jurickson Profar and Bryce Harper were younger among regular position players. But Bogaerts held his own due to excellent bat speed and enough pitch recognition to keep himself afloat....

Whale's Wellman a Long Way from California Roots
2012-02-09 01:45:00 By Bruce Berlet Casey Wellman played several sports growing up in Brentwood, Calif., hardly a hotbed for hockey. But Wellman got hooked on the game played on ice after his father, Brad, met several New Jersey Devils players who asked him to skate with them in Boston. ?Dad didn?t know how to skate, so he was pretty upset about that,? Wellman said with a smile. But Brad, an infielder for 441 games for three major league teams over eight seasons who later managed in the Houston Astros organization, introduced Casey and his brother, Logan, to hockey, and 31/2-year-old Casey fell in love with his new endeavor. ?I have some vague memories (of his dad playing), but I was pretty young,? said Wellman, whose uncle, Tom Candiotti, is a former major league pitcher known for his knuckleball. ?Having pictures of a father-son game is pretty cool, but I haven?t played baseball for a while. It?s a great sport, but at the time, it was just a little slow, a little boring, so I stuck with hockey.? Desp... More About: Roots
