Who is your favorite “sleeper” prospect in the Sox system? Mine is easily Sam Antonacci.

Looking at Rikuu Nishida’s future with great interest
Im a big fan of his, he was just ranked as a top 10 2nd base prospect in all of baseball by one of the big prospect publications (dont recall which one). He has the arm to play short too. Excited to see what he does this year
Jeral Perez had a really nice season in WS last year. Looking forward to seeing how he builds on that this year. We’re loaded with middle infield prospects, but he’s developing solid power and could be a nice option at 2B or maybe a shift to the outfield
Does George Wolkow count?! Wolk smash
Wow, the guy every prospect group says is a big riser is your big sleeper?
Mine is Cash Considerations, he’s sneaky every year.
I don’t know if he’s a sleeper, but Blake Larson is one of the more interesting prospects the Sox have. Big development project coming off of TJ. Will be interesting to see how he progresses the next few years.
I think Jairo Iriarte is gonna be a sick closer in a couple years. Reminds me of a right handed Josh Hader
William Bergolla
Rikuu Nishida all the way. If he keeps backing up that high contact with walks and SBs and he could be really useful. I’m also rooting for Lyle Miller-Green, even if he won’t be a TWP. Cool backstory, and hopefully he rediscovers his power.
Caleb Bonemer for me, although I think Antonacci could be an under-the-radar prospect too.
