Red Sox Top Prospect Voting: Jay Groome has to take another step forward

It doesn’t really come as much of a surprise, both from knowing how the system is shaping up right now and just knowing the history of how Boston’s farm system has developed, but our community rankings have thus far been dominated by position players. There was a two pitcher run a few spots ago in the middle of the top ten, but beyond that six of our top eight prospects have been on the offensive side of the organization. Well, today we get our third pitcher, who emerged from a tight battle between three arms. That’d be Jay Groome, who comes in as our number nine prospect after snagging 34 percent of the vote.
