A couple of days ago the Red Sox signed a softball catcher from New Zealand. Today Theo met with reporters to discuss a multitude of issues and the signing of Te Wara Bishop came up:
My understanding – I’ve never seen him, just some video – is that he’s one of the most exciting young softball prospects to come around in the last 20 years, out of New Zealand. He had a lot of people talking, and then Deeble saw him play – the size, his athleticism, his swing and his arm strength – and thought that he was a pretty interesting prospect. It’s a pretty interesting opportunity for us and for him to see what happens.
The potential player pool for the Red Sox seems to have no boundaries.
