MLB.com released their midseason top-100 prospects update, and as expected, Rafael Devers and Jason Groome were there to represent the Red Sox farm system. Of course, Devers is in a different echelon than most prospects and is consistently regarded as one of the game’s elite. Expected to make his major league debut Tuesday night, the young third baseman is fourth on MLB’s list – behind only Yoan Moncada, Amed Rosario, and Gleyber Torres.
MLB’s list isn’t the first to consider Devers as one of the elite talents in the minor leagues, though.
