Retherford has been intriguing no doubt. It would be nice to get more information on him, as I have seen little to nothing written. (And I don't put much stock into Hawk's ramblings) His stats thus far are very good, but I hope he starts to take some more walks as the season progresses.

Besides, I wasn't even sure what he was calling "stupid," since your post had about 5 points in it (each of which were interesting, by the way). But, again, consider the source. |

I do not think you are getting, there is a difference between a baseball player player being great at one position, and a baseball player being good a several positions. I think a good example might be Craig Biggio. I think he said, he could play multiple positions/pitch/and hit for avg. I think that is a good pure baseball player. And it is not stupid to state his opinion. |

And thanks to everyone else that has posted their responses to the original purpose of this thread, this is going to be a very exciting year for our minor league clubs. I'm almost more excited to follow some of the minor league games this year than the actual Sox games. ![]() |

I knew what you were saying, but looked like you just needed it to be said another way. I think another player like this is Zach Greinke, he can hit, but dominates pitching. |

Another guy who's not a huge prospect but has a chance is Charlie Shirek. Good arm, sort of a checkered past. Really hurt his draft position coming out of Nebraska. I'm rooting for him.

By the way, he had another solid outing in W-S today, definitely a guy everyone should keep their eye on. |

I'm just looking to gather any information I can on him. He seems to have climbed out of nowhere to put up some amazing numbers (so far) with little to no acclaim. I suppose the acclaim will be there if he sustains them.
I'm curious as to what position he is most adept at playing, since he seems to be able to play all over the infield and even caught and pitched in college. Also, Larry over at SouthsideSox always refers to Retherford's "clubfoot." I'm unsure if he is referring to a lack of speed, or perhaps an awkward stride, etc. Either way I'm excited about him, and I hope his K rate drops a bit (it isn't terrible) while taking more walks. |

Nope, not CJ but in the family. So if you have anything you are curious about I can do my best to answer it.

Nice to have you aboard.
![]() The only questions I really had are listed a few posts up. That Baron's team has certainly been fun to follow, and I look forward to their continued success. |
