Peter Vazquez, 2B - The biggest surprise of the weekend for me was this kid, Peter Vazquez. I hadn’t seen a ton of the USC commit prior to arriving in Boston, but was given a Carlos Baerga comp by a scout. Vazquez started out by consistently driving the ball as well as almost anyone in BP on Friday, a trend that continued on Saturday as well. It wasn’t just BP that was eye opening, as he had a solid approach at the plate in game and made more quality contact there. Vazquez is a solid athlete as well, though may be limited to second base or potentially the outfield. Vazquez is being slept on in a big way.
Vasquez seems like a quality IF draft pick, not in early rounds
