They've done a lot of work to add talent to what was a weak system:
In the Betts/Price deal:
- C Connor Wong
- OF Alex Verdugo - already looks like a very good MLB player
- 2b Jeter Downs
In the Hembree/Workman deal:
- P Connor Seabold
- P Nick Pivetta
In the Moreland deal:
- 3b Hudson Potts
- OF Jeisson Rosario
In the Pillar deal:
- PTBNL from the Rockies
In the Osich deal:
- PTBNL from the Cubs
Via waivers from Philly:
- C Deivy Grullon
In the draft:
- 2b Nick Yorke
- 3b/1b Blaze Jordan
- P Jeremy Wu-Yelland
- P James Drohan
Seems like a lot of very intriguing talent added to the Sox' system. Most of it won't pan out, but the more rolls of the dice you get, the more likely it is you get a hit. Or whatever the idiom is.
Now thinking about their top prospects, soxprospects.com has this list:
1. 1b Tristan Casas
2. 2b Jeter Downs*
3. P Bryan Mata
4. CF Jarren Duran
5. P Noah Song
6. 3b/1b Bobby Dalbec (now up in the majors)
7. CF Gilberto Jimenez
8. P Jay Groome
9. P Thaddeus Ward
10. P Tanner Houck
11. OF Jeisson Rosario*
12. P Connor Seabold*
13. 2b Nick Yorke*
14. SS Matthew Lugo
15. 3b/2b Hudson Potts*
16. 3b/1b Blaze Jordan*
17. SS CJ Chatham
18. P Aldo Ramirez
19. P Chris Murphy (not to be confused with the senator from CT)
20. C Connor Wong*
*Represents players added this year via draft, waivers, or trade
So where would Grullon, Wu-Yelland, and Drohan fit in there?
