Dalbec Connects On HR |
Kevin Youkilis,
Will Middlebrooks,
Travis Shaw,
Yoan Moncada—all former Red Sox third-basemen
and all gone.
Pablo Sandoval, our Nation turns its lonely (
and wicked scared) eyes toward you! Assuming
The Carmine Hose Hot Corner can survive until 2018, the 'cavalry' will be right around the corner. Most pundits are talking about
Rafael Devers—and well they should. The now #2 prospect in the Red Sox organization looks like the real thing. But there is a guy just
outside the Top Ten ranking (#11) that might be just as good—
Bobby Dalbec. In fact, the 21-year old third-sacker may have more
power potential than Devers. In limited 2016 action at Single A Lowell (34 games), the 6'4", 225-pound Dalbec hit .386 with 7 HRs and 33 RBIs. In fact, he captured two
New York-Penn League Player Of The Week awards in his short stay in
The Canal City. Keep an eye on him!
