Scouting Notes: Kendal Volz, P, Boston Red Sox
Boston Red Sox pitcher Kendal Volz spent the entire 2010 season in Greenville where he posted a very impressive 6.71 K/BB rate. However, at 22, he was old for the South Atlantic League as an overslot college signing who was expected shred through younger competition. Unfortunately for Volz, 127 hits allowed in 116 1/3 IP is anything but “shredding” as his impressive ratios were somewhat offset by the fact he was so hittable.
Scouting Report: Reymond Fuentes, OF, San Diego Padres
Former Boston Red Sox first round pick Reymond Fuentes recently found a new home with the San Diego Padres Organization as a key piece in the Adrian Gonzalez trade. In posting a .270/.328/.377 line in with Greenville of the South Atlantic League, he displayed a line drive stroke and speed to burn from the bottom half of the batting order. Having played the 2010 season as a 19-year old, Fuentes is still years away from San Diego. However, it’s never to early to discuss his strengths and weaknesses and how he may fit into the Padres future plans.
