If not for the presence of Sean Manaea and his historic summer in the Cape Cod League, we might remember 2012 as the summer of Aaron Blair. Of course, he is certainly getting the credit he rightly deserves, and has a strong shot at being picked at the back end of the first round once June rolls around. But, few players did as much to help themselves in one summer in recent memory than Blair did in 2012. And, after enjoying that dominant summer for the Yarmouth-Dennis Red Sox he’s simply built on that success and perhaps raised his stock even higher this spring.
