September Rankings are live: www.soxprospects.com(You may have to hit refresh) Notes-Prospects 3-5 (Bleis, Rafaela, Teel) were the toughest calls towards the top that we've had in a long time. We're all in the same ballpark but not 100% aligned. We raised Rafaela's and Teel's projection grades to a 5, but decided to watch the games and review the data & reports for another month on those three prospects before making any other changes there. -We struggled with ranking Noah Song - based on live scouting, current day Song might not make the cut for the top 60. But there is a chance 2019 Noah Song is still in there - that Song would be ranked pretty high. He's ranked at 60 for now. It will be an important off-season and will be fun to follow how he looks in the spring. GraduatesNick Robertson graduated DebutsZack Penrod debuts at 49 RisersYoelin Cespedes up from 15 to 10 Wilyer Abreu up from 23 to 12 Corey Rosier up from 56 to 44 Brock Bell from unranked to 50 Felix Cepeda from unranked to 54 FallersMike Romero from 10 to 18 Bryan Mata from 21 to 27 Cutter Coffey from 30 to 37 Freili Encarnacion from 49 to 56 Phillip Sikes from 46 to 57 Niko Kavadas from 42 to unranked Christian Koss from 50 to unranked CJ Liu from 51 to unranked Note: please, for the love of god, keep in mind that just because a player moved a few spots in either direction it does not necessarily mean we think more or less of that player at the time of that given update compared to last month. New prospects debut in the rankings, players graduate, other prospects make big jumps around that player. It's all relative. Grades are important as well.

^ Chris is right here. It works if you are logged in to Twitter but it's all messed up if you are not. So we may need to remove the timeline again until it's fixed. Ugh. Extremely frustrating how much worse Twitter is in recent months.

Somewhat good news - embedded timelines are working again. But only for specific accounts and not for Twitter lists. So I re-embedded the timeline across the site with the main SoxProspects account only.

Twitter/X have ignored all requests to fix the Embedded Timeline feature so I'm losing faith it's coming back anytime soon. I am going to remove the Twitter timeline from the site today. I will continue to check every few weeks from here on out because I'd really like to bring it back whenever it works again.

Nope, the news of his return literally came across Twitter about 30 seconds after we published the new rankings.

We'd likely have ranked him in the 50s. Note: please, for the love of god, note that because player moved a few spots in either direction, it does not necessarily mean we think more or less highly of that player at the time of that given update compared to last month. As you can see from above, several new prospects debuted in the rankings, some players graduated. Others may have made big jumps around that player. It's all relative. Grades are important as well.

Brief non-update update. Obviously the embedded timeline still isn't working and it's been about a month. I'm hearing rumblings that they're working on it even though they are not responding to help tickets on the subject. Some content managers have said their feeds have intermittently come back in and out over the past week. Continuing to monitor.

Updated predictions for the 2023 signing season. Not feeling very confident on the post 10th round high schoolers right now. But like we said before, we wouldn't be surprised if Teel came in at $4 million, wouldn't be surprised if it was $4.5 million. Antonio Anderson could be $1m, could be $1.5m or could be more. Duffy is probably in the $400k to $500k range. Best guess is that Reimer is under slot, but that is still just a hunch. Those ranges leave some variability for what other money could be available. Hoping more info comes out today, but maybe will just get a big press release from the organization tomorrow morning.
Top Ten Rounds (entire amount counts towards bonus cap) Round, Overall Pick, Player, Projected Bonus 1. Kyle Teel $4,200,000 - agreed to terms for underslot deal, officially signing in Boston on Saturday. Bonus # unclear. 2. Nazzan Zanetello $3,000,000 - agreed to terms for overslot deal, officially signing in Boston on Saturday. 3. Antonio Anderson $1,500,000 - agreed to terms for overslot deal, officially signing in Boston on Saturday. Bonus # unclear. 4. Matt Duffy $450,000 - reported to already have a slightly underslot deal, in FTM 4. Kristian Campbell $492,700 (signed) 4. Justin Riemer $200,000 5. Connelly Early $408,500 (signed) 6. CJ Weims $50,000 (signed) 7. Caden Rose $150,000 (signed) 8. Trennor O'Donnell $50,000 (signed) 9. Blake Wehunt $100,000 (signed) 10. Ryan Ammons $50,000 (signed)
After 10th round, above $150K None projected right now but not out of the question.
After 10th round, possible $150K or less signs (count $0 towards cap) 11. Nelly Taylor - in FTM, signing imminent 12. Max Carlson 13. Cade Feeney (signed for $150k) 14. Jojo Ingrassia - expected to sign 16. Isaac Stebens - expected to sign 18. Zach Fogell - expected to sign 19. Stanley Tucker - expected to sign
Total spent towards cap using these projections: $10,651,200 Red Sox Cap: $10,295,100 Red Sox Cap +5%: (no draft pick penalty): $10,809,855
Super wicked early projected not to sign 15. Phoenix Call 17. Dylan Schlaegel 20. Robert Orloski
EDIT: Duffy to $450k

OK Zanetello may actually be higher than $2.8m. Edited above.

Thinking Zanetello is going to be more like $3 million. But like Ian & Chris said on the podcast, wouldn't be surprised if Teel came in at $4 million, wouldn't be surprised if it was $4.5 million. Antonio Anderson could be $1m, could be $1.5m or more. Duffy is probably in the $400k to $500k range. Best guess is that Campbell is slot and Reimer is under slot, but those are still guesses without any actual info behind them. Those ranges leave some variability for what happens elsewhere.

Not feeling very confident. But there is still variability in what Anderson's and Teel's bonuses could be.

Hearing rumblings that Zanetello's bonus might be on the higher side of the projections listed here, maybe higher.
