Wow. Extatic to see what he can do against AAA pitching. He isn't out of the conversation for next year's starting catcher.

He will get a call up at some point next year but definitely not going to start the season with Sox. Hopefully we will see him in Aug/Sep timeframe next year.

Not guarenteed that he's next year's starting catcher and I'm not expecting that he'll be, but if he has a JBJ spring training and the Sox choose an internal option over Salty or McCann this offseason (unlikely) he is right up there with Lava and Ross.

Congrats to Vasquez. He earned it with a monster second half this season.
He needs to control the pass balls next season, which I think will be primarily at Pawtucket. He should be in Boston for 2015 if he can hit at Pawtucket.

Hopefully this means Butler is being called up. Don't want to see him blocked down there.

I'd like to see Butler get a shot, also, once the PawSox season ends.
