Right field
- Sam Fuld (Oakland Athletics)– Durham, NH
Like Davis, Fuld is more known for his speed and defense than he is for his offense but, while that’s held true in 2014, he has been serviceable at the plate. Between the A’s and Twins this season, Fuld is slashing .261/.344/.351 with 17 stolen bases. That type of offense doesn’t really play well in right field but his defense and base running are both excellent and could make him a legitimate starter on the All-New England squad.
