Age:20 B-T:R-R Ht.:6-1 Wt.:190
Drafted:HS--Buena Vista, Ga., 2002(5th round)
Signed by:Rob English.
Background:
Drafted fron a private high school in rural Georgia, Spann faced a huge
jump in sompetition when he turned pro. He hit just .222 in the Gulf Coast
League during his 2002 pro debut, but his work athic and maturity convinced
the Red Sox to send him to low Class A in 2003, where he became Augusta's
player of the year and a South Atlantic League all-star.
Strength:
Spann has an advanced hitting gameplan, especially considering his age and
background. For now he's content to make contact and use the middle of the
field, but he should develop average to plus power once he gets stronger
and more pull conscious. A football and basketball star in high scholl,
he's more athletic than most third baseman.
Weakness:
Though managers named Spann the SAL's best defender at third base, he's
still a work in progress. His arm and range are fine but can be improve, and
his hands aren't especially soft. He doesn't draw as many walk as the Red Sox
like.
The future:
The organization's most improve player in 2003. Spann will join a prospect-
laden Sarasota club this year. Bill Mueller and Kevin Youkilis are formidable
obstacles ahead of him at third base.
