SoxProspects.com home page on 9/20/2003We had about 5,000 pageviews in 2003. Expecting about 18 million in 2023. Helluva ride! Big thanks to everyone who helped along the way! 2/2

Congratulations to the Sox Prospects team! What an accomplishment. You must be very proud and for very good reason. Thank you for doing this, I get so much out of this site! Thank you, thank you.

Still amazes me that this was written almost 4 years ago.

I remember when I first found this site I thought it was by Mike Andrews my favorite Sox as a kid. Imagine my initial disappointment, but that changed when I saw how great it was.

Big thanks to everyone who helped along the way! 2/2 I'm seeing three very successful careers on those lists, two good careers and a whole bunch of names I don't even remember. Am I forgetting someone there who had any meaningful MLB time? As for the site, I can't remember when I first stumbled across it, but have always enjoyed pulling it up before going to a minor league game and reading the scouting reports.

Very different definition of Grade back then! Love the back-in-time look, and proud to be a part of a great community!

Congrats and thanks to Mike and all the staff/contributors. I've been here since the dark days of scouring the newspapers and baseball tonight etc to hear anything about the Arod/Manny trade.
Many great years and hopefully many more to come!

Abe Alvarez shall never be forgotten! No one I have photos of will ever be forgotten. I don't remember how I found the site--maybe a mention in the Globe? I know it was before Cla Meredith made his ill-fated debut in 2005, because he was the first prospect I saw at Fenway after following him in the minors. I don't think I actually posted before July 2007 when I shared photos of Clay Buchholz with the PawSox.

I have a cap autographed by David Pauley, Ellsbury, Delcarmen, Reddick, Lowrie and drum role, Chad Spann. Glad to see that Chad was highly ranked here and I was not the only believer !!!

I`m down here in Tennessee and baseball is not very big where I am. When the Braves are doing good people get interested when the playoffs start. This site is a real joy for me. I really don`t know how much more you could actually do to make it better. As good as it is, you can tell that everyone who is responsible for this site strives for it to be great. Thank you all very much for all your work on here.

What a fantastic place this is. More than a quarter of my life has been influenced (lol, impacted).
Out of curiosity, who were the top posters in year 1 ?

It's been pretty awesome to see Soxprospects.com smash their ceiling and become a perennial all-star franchise player.

This site is such a fantastic place for the Red Sox fans! I just wanted to tell you that even Korean fans love this site. This is easily the best place to get insight on Red Sox players and prospects. (It's also great way to learn English!)
