There are two guys who might get claimed and lost. The first would be Josh Fields (Sox Prospects #38). I'm a little disappointed to see Wright kept at Fields' expense. I'm all for giving the knuckleballer a go but at the end of the day a live arm like Fields' is one I don't think you cut bait on unless you absolutely have to. The second is a guy I like more than many and that's Jeremy Hazelbaker (Sox Prospects #29). He's got power, excellent speed which works on the bases and helps cover up for some defensive shortcoming potentially making him a useful reserve outfielder even if he doesn't hit for much in the way of average. Both guys are at a point where they could get drafted and stick somewhere.
