So while I'm a little upset he's only checking in at #52 on Baseball America's list of the Top 100 prospects, I'm convinced it's because most people haven't seen this stud live and in person.
I liked him prior to last year's Spring Training....but after reading more about him, and meeting him in Ft Myers....it quickly turned into a case of baseball man love (see Jacoby Ellsbury in early 2007, right before the pink hats and eventual injuries got to him).
A-rod is apparently trying to move in Iggy too...he better recognize. "It's a Miami thing"....easy pal.
Either way, Iggy is Boston's top rated prospect, but you can also find Anthony Ranaudo (#67) and left-hander Drake Britton (#97) on the list.
Not that I care, but look at who checks in at #37 and #75....
