Red Sox's Jeremy Barfield: Assigned to minors camp
The Red Sox reassigned Barfield to minor-league camp Sunday.
After displaying limited pop since entering the pro ranks in 2008, Barfield busted out for 27 home runs and 21 doubles across just 384 plate appearances for Double-A Portland last season. While that sort of production would normally make him a minor-league prospect worth keeping an eye on, Barfield is 29 years old and has yet to reach the majors, which tempers any enthusiasm about his outlook. He should at least receive the opportunity to move up a rung on the minor-league ladder and receive extended at-bats with Triple-A Pawtucket this season.

The 28-year-old has spent the last two seasons with the Sugar Land Skeeters of the Atlantic League after tough stints in the minor leagues with the A's and Rockies. He was slashing .274/.357/.519 with nine home runs in 135 at-bats this season prior to being picked up by the Red Sox organization. The club has yet to announce where Barfield will be assigned.
