Heads22 Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 As we wrap up the 2007 edition of the FutureSox Top 25, this year's top prospect has a rather unique distinction. Every one of the top five prospects was drafted within the first two rounds of the draft, and all five have the potential to make an impact on the major league roster this year.

Rowand44 Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 Good stuff as always, guys. The only thing I'd change is I'd have Gio ranked higher than Fields but that's obviously just a matter of opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danman31 Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Jun 5, 2007 -> 11:15 AM) Good stuff as always, guys. The only thing I'd change is I'd have Gio ranked higher than Fields but that's obviously just a matter of opinion. We still are being conservative with Gio because of his question marks physically. I know I am one of the more conservative people regarding Gio. Also, Fields is a power hitting 3B that has improved his defense to a respectable level and 3B is a tough spot to find good bats at like Fields projects to. Another thing that helped Fields get the nod is Major League readiness. He would be up for about half the teams in the bigs right now. If we made the list now it would be hard to keep Fields ahead of Gio because when we made the list Gio had a mediocre year in Reading, his current Bham numbers would make it hard to keep him below Fields. With that said, both players are repeating their levels. We're gonna have a prospect of the month thing coming out soon (it actually will be out because Jason isn't writing it) and Fields has a case for winning with his huge May.

Well I'm with you on Gio actually. Just for me, I'll take the arm of Gio over the power bat of Fields. I completely understand what you're saying, I guess what I'm trying to say is that I'd rather have Gio in our system than Fields so I consider him the better prospect, that obviously doesn't make it right.

I thinik Fields is more likely to be a good MLB player, but Gio has a way higher ceiling. Thus, all I can say is our Kyle McCulloch and Lance Broadway 1st round pick FO would agree with Fields over Gio. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
