The Red Sox kicked off their annual Rookie Program on Monday, providing 12 of the organization's top prospects a unique opportunity to maximize the present and prepare for the future.
This year's attendees include top pitching prospect Casey Kelly and shortstop Jose Iglesias, the Cuban defector who was signed to a Major League contract four months ago.
The roster also includes pitchers Randor Bierd, Felix Doubront, Ryne Miller, Junichi Tazawa, Kyle Weiland; catcher Luis Exposito; infielder Yamaico Navarro; and outfielders Ryan Kalish, Che-Hsuan Lin and Josh Reddick.
The young players will also go to a charitable endeavor, conducting a public autograph signing at the Best Buy in the Landmark Center, which is located at 401 Park Drive in Boston. That event takes place on Jan. 18 from 3:30-5 p.m. ET. Fans who make a $10 donation to the Jimmy Fund will be able to get autographs on a first-come, first-serve basis.
