His walk #’s coming down is a good sign, he had some control issues immediately following the promotion to Worcester

CBS Sports did a Mock Draft and has the Red Sox taking SS Aiden Miller at #14.

14 Boston - Pick: SS Aiden Miller, Mitchell HS (Florida) ($4,663,100 slot value)

The Red Sox have used their last four first-round picks on high school hitters, including the last three on high school hitters with standout hit tools ( Nick Yorke, Marcelo Mayer, Mickey Romero ) under president of baseball operations Chaim Bloom. A hamate injury sabotaged Miller's spring, though he has a long track record and is well-known to scouts, and fits Boston's M.O. as a prep kid who can really hit. There's a chance Miller would have played his way into the top 10 had his wrist cooperated this spring.

Full Mock: MLB Mock Draft 2023: Dylan Crews, Paul Skenes go early; playoff-close teams could look to college players

SS is the most versatile and athletic. A good one can easily be moved to 2B or 3B, or even learn the OF. A lot of middle infielders wind up finding a role elsewhere on the diamond (Mookie was drafted as a 2B, for example). But you will never, ever draft a left fielder and then teach him how to play a middle infield position. Only guy in my knowledge who ever did that was Craig Biggio who was a complete anomaly who went from catcher to OF to Gold Glove 2B.

If we finish in last place but go like 9-1 or 8-2 against the Yankees and that keeps them out of the 3rd WC by a game or two, I'm happy with the season

BTW, the statcast determined that Turner's slammage would've been a homerun in 29 of 30 ballparks

The one it wouldn't have been out of? Yankee Stadium
