By Amalie Benjamin Globe Staff / August 13, 2010 No heir pressure Reddick is not the only upper-level prospect in the organization, the Sox also have Ryan Kalish, Daniel Nava, and Che-Hsuan Lin waiting in the wings. With J.D. Drew’s contract up after 2011, it’s not a stretch to think the Sox might have a replacement in the organization. But while Hazen said the Sox have greater outfield depth than other positions, it wouldn’t be right to assume one of the prospects is the heir apparent. “We’re not just going to hand over spots to these young guys before they prove really that they can do it,’’ Hazen said. “I don’t think the rush is just to hand those jobs over right away without some competition or without us exploring all other options as well. I don’t think we’ve ever done that. If at the end of the day the best option is one of those guys, then we’ll see what happens at that point.’’ . . . After agreeing to terms with Cuban catcher Adalberto Ibarra in April, he finally arrived in Florida to start his tenure with the Gulf Coast League Sox after his contract was finally approved. The organization hopes to have him go through a quick version of spring training in the GCL, then head out to a full-season club, though it has not yet been determined which one. Hazen said he hasn’t seen Ibarra catch much yet, but has seen his bat, which is impressive. “Having gotten to see him hit, it’s an advanced bat. This guy has a really, really good swing,’’ Hazen said. As for his catching, he has “really soft hands, he’s got a really good arm. He ’s got good fundamentals behind the plate.’’ http://www.boston.com/sports/baseball/redsox/articles/2010/08/13/ weiland_at_head_of_the_class/?page=2 http://is.gd/efTJI --
