Jim Callis was on 670 The Score radio giving his views of the Cubs and Sox prospects. His comments on Yoelqui Cespedes (our rated #2 prospect) where not overwhelming. He basically hasn’t hit well. However, Jose Rodriguez has looked solid. Also, he said Yolbert Sanchez is a guy who maybe “flying under the radar”. Callis also commented on Micker Adolfo and Number #1 pick Montgomery. Obvious, Colson hasn’t been around much.

Other two guys are definitely players to keep an eye on. One of them might end up as a long term solution at 2B.Riding Shotgun on the Sox Bandwagon since before there was an Internet...

I don't put much stock in prognosticators' assessments about raw prospects. They don't want to look like lackeys for the team by praising all prospects and by sprinkling in negatives, it increases their audience (ratings). Time will tell how these guys turn out.

Yoelkis has not shown much at all this season. If I had to guess, he's on the path to being a 4th/5th type. The future of the outfield rests on the very broad shoulders of Oscar Colas and that's a good thing. The farm system is quite barren at this particular juncture, but can be brought back to a middling level in the next year or two with some patience.
