We, as Red Sox fans, have a lot to be excited about with the farm system. It'll be interesting to see how Barnes starts off in Salem. Towards the end of the season he was wearing down due to a longer season.
Xander will hopefully continue to blossom and progress and remain the savior of the Boston Red Sox
As to the question earlier, I think JBJr. will come up in the second half of the season. He absolutely crushed in Salem and started off extremely hot in Portland and
somewhat faded towards the end. Yes, I know he finished with a .271/.373/.437 line which is definitely doable. I think he starts off the year in Portland and if he makes it up to the bigs it'll be later in the year.
Prospects I will be keeping my eyes on this year are: Owens, Swihart, Cecchini, and Kukuk (along with the top tier guys.)
