Chih-Fang Pan Update...

*IF Chih-Fang Pan is officially a member of the Oakland A's organization.
(His signing with the A's was rumored a few weeks back).



Here's a brief recap of what A's Coordinator of International Operations/Baseball Operations Analyst Dan Kantrovitz had to say about Pan (courtesy of OaklandClubhouse.com - subscription required):
-has the kind of speed to impact a game/top-of-the order type of guy with the potential for a high OBP
-his arm/glove project him defensively at SS



Here's the kid's Taiwanese Wiki (baseball) page with pics (Babel Fish).







*IF Fu-Lin Kuo has been impressive in ST camp (story from PinstripesPlus.com - subscription required). Kuo hopes to get stronger and start his minor league career in Staten Island (A - short season ball).




*Great compliment by teammate and fellow top Sox prospect Ryan Kalish on CH Lin: "Then you get to see his arm, which is unlike anything you've ever seen."
