Wow. Just wow. Sometimes message board conversations are down-right embarassing.

I'm not going to dignify that with an answer, really. Go fuck yourself.

What the fuck do you mean who showed you more? Have you seen any of these guys play? My guess is no, so other than a boxscore an occasional boxscore you checked every two or three days and what you read from Cem and others on here, you have no fucking clue what the hell you're talking about.

And once again, you're voting on potential. If that were the purpose of these polls, then why do we do these? Why not just take the top 20 prospects and make an all-star team off that?

I vote for the played who showed me more, even if that didn't translate fully to his stats. If there are wrong answers, what is the point of these polls? Just give it to the guy with the highest OPS.

So you picked Navarro and his .310 obp?

I'll reiterate - this is supposed to be based on how these players performed this year, not their long-term chances at the Major League level.

Yes, I did. I'm just like Dusty Baker. I don't give 2 fucks about OBP.

Derrik Gibson

His average, OBP, and high number of stolen bases decided it for me.

hmmm, I got a 401 error stating I already voted. Yet I only voted for 2nd base previous. Anywho I voted for Swifty Gibson.

Place your vote for the SS that you feel had the best season in 2009. Please do not vote based on who you think is the best prospect or who you think may perform better in the future, and please only consider minor league performance. Please note that positional eligibility was determined by the SoxProspects staff, primarily based on the number of games played per position. This poll will close on Sunday, September 13, at 4:30 pm ET. All stats are cumulative for all Red Sox minor league affiliates. Full stats are available here.
