    OF Rick Asadoorian benefited from unusually good weather in the Northeast this spring to become a hot property at the high school level. Asadoorian is a five-tool talent who has been touted as the best Massachusetts position player to come along since the Conigliaro brothers and Tom Grieve in the 1960s. He reminds scouts more of former Red Sox star Dwight Evans and the hometown team, with the 17th pick, has him on their short list. Asadoorian is an outstanding hitter with a tight, compact swing. He also runs above-average, but his best tool is a strong, accurate right-field arm .
