    Size is not on the side of 5-foot-10, 180-pound OF/LHP Chad Boyd either, but he swung the bat exceptionally well this spring, with power, after a poor 2003 summer. Scouts say Boyd lacks the raw power for a corner outfield position, and the speed for center. In all likelihood, he'll pursue his career in college at Nevada-Las Vegas.
