- Two Massachusetts kids the Red Sox passed on just beat Boston in pinstripes for the second time in a row.
Ben Rice [Dartmouth] and Cam Schlittler [Northeastern] didn’t pop on Boston’s data models pre-draft. The Yankees saw beyond the numbers.
Angel asked Craig Breslow today if that means Boston needs to re-evaluate scouting, and a different question: would he draft himself?
Where should the balance be between data and feel in scouting?
