You already know
Rubby De la Rosa and
Allen Webster, but the third played included in the
Wade Miley deal is now revealed as 20-year old infielder
Raymel Flores. The 5'9" Dominican played for the Class A Lowell Spinners last year—hitting .282, with a .344 OBP. According to
SoxProspects.com, Flores has emerging defensive skills and "plus-plus speed", but is sub-par offensively. All in all, it seems strange that the deal was held up for so long by the Diamondbacks for a low-tier prospect like Flores.
