The Lowell Spinners are feeding talent into Boston Red Sox of tomorrow. As the Red Sox entry in the short-season New York-Penn League, the Lowell Spinners have had many team members climb the minor league ladder to become major leaguers. Already, several top Red Sox prospects have played in Lowell, beginning in 1999 with third baseman Wilton Veras. An original Spinner in 1996, Veras became the first former Spinner to reach the Red Sox. The team takes its name from the region's long history as home to New England textile mills. It is proud of the nickname "Thread Sox Nation."
