2010 Sea Dogs could be a special group
The 2010 Portland Sea Dogs -- Boston’s Double-A affiliate -- are one of the most prospect-laden teams in the entire minor leagues this season. In fact, Baseball America named this year’s Portland squad the second-best lineup in the minors heading into the 2010 campaign. This is precisely the talent that Theo Epstein was talking about when he made the off-hand remark over the winter that the 2010 season might be a “bridge year” before the next influx of prospects. But when measuring how good this team really is, one needs look no further than the team that the Red Sox had in Portland five years ago.
