Another cheap 1B acquisition possibility is Jerry Sands, ex-Red Sox. Not in the same mold of the Belts, LoMos of this league, but a power hitter who might be available as a non-roster MiL pickup. Right now, Daniel Snyder is projected at 1B for Pawtucket with Chester at Portland. If Sands clears waivers for the Rays they may be interested in a low ceiling minor leaguer to add depth as the Sox would with Sands. And you're forgetting Travis Shaw.

A LHH, Shaw often gets overlooked when discussing Sox 1B prospects. He currently ranks 42nd on this site. Disappointing BA at Portland, .221 (2013) and .227 in 2012, albeit short time with the Dogs. Does show some power, though, jacking 35 hr last two seasons. Decent OBP. He's only 23 and did surprise at Surprise in the AFL with a .361 BA and 5 long ones in 61 ABs.

I know. And I'm not alone in that regard.
