Didn't get to watch any games, but looks like Batista had a solid line.

Getz kept Grifol around. I’ve seen nothing to suggest he has any clue what he’s doing. He has a simply awful offseason signing terrible players.
Didn't Bob report that Grifol is still around only because Jerry doesn't want to eat the money?

This team with Crochet/Nastrini/Cannon in the rotation gives reason to watch the pitching side at least. It's quite unfortunate the position players are so putrid. Other than Montgomery (who I would like to see earn the promotion) there's not much imminent on the horizon.

Nice showing by Cannon.
Pretty much the guy we've seen pitch in the minors. Going to throw strikes, induce contact, and doesn't miss an excessive amount of bats. Could be a pretty decent back-end guy.

Kurtz going 1st overall would be wild.
QuoteThere continues to be a ton of buzz surrounding the Chicago White Sox and high school bluechips at pick No. 5. Plenty of brass have been in to see Griffin on multiple occasions, and they seem to like him a good deal, but it’s Rainer who continues to hear his name surge into this spot. It’s been a resurgent spring with an improved hit tool, more assertiveness and physicality in the box, all whilst maintaining his impressive defensive and athletic chops. He’s got a shot to be the first prep off the board and Chicago seems smitten with the high schooler some insist on throwing Colson Montgomery comparisons on.
I'm pretty sold on Rainer.

3 is wild, but I don't think top 10 is crazy. Looks like they could have Colson, Schultz, Thorpe, Quero, and Iriarte in their top 100.
I think low end of top 10 is defensible. Three is too high. Maybe top 5 is reasonable post draft?

I thought you had to pay extra for that?
I don't believe I'm paying extra.

Is there somewhere you can watch the AA and AAA games? Honestly, this board would probably be a lot more fun if we just completely ignored the MLB team, and focused all of our attention and discussion on the minor leagues instead. f*** the White Sox. Let's start having game threads for the Knights and the Barons.
Yes. You can watch minor league games on the At Bat app if you have MLB.TV.
There's a group of us that routinely watch games and post about prospects in the FutureSox forum. It's a welcome respite from the main forum where everyone is just screaming into the void about how everything is awful and terrible. (It is.)

19. Edgar Quero, C, White Sox
Team: Double-A Birmingham (Southern)
Age: 21Why He’s Here: .286/.421/.929 (4-for-14), 4 R, 3 HR, 9 RBIs, 0 BB, 4 SO
The Scoop: The White Sox added Quero last summer when they dealt Lucas Giolito and Reynaldo Lopez to the Angels. This year. Quero is one of the youngest catchers at Double-A. The switch-hitter has popped all four of his home runs this season as a lefthanded batter, and he is one of three qualified Southern League hitters to compile a 1.000 OPS or better. Quero is Chicago’s catcher of the future, and he might be ready for his first extended MLB run next season. (ME)
Quero made the BA hot sheet.

Law saw Rainer recently.
QuoteThe annual National High School Invitational tournament took place this week at the USA Baseball Complex in Cary, NC, but the draft talent there was very light, with Harvard-Westlake shortstop Bryce Rainer the only projected first-round pick on any of the 16 teams. Rainer helped his cause with a strong week, and he is likely to be one of the first two high school hitters selected this year, along with Mississippi outfielder Konnor Griffin. Griffin is the toolshed, while Rainer is the more polished player and plays the more valuable position. His hit tool is still the biggest variable, but he did show he could hit decent stuff in Cary while continuing to play superb defense.
Rainer’s not just a plus defender at short with a 70 arm — he hit 95 mph in a relief appearance as well, but please miss me with any two-way talk — he’s a leader in the field, involved in every play, directing teammates, serving as the sort of on-field captain you hope your shortstop or your catcher can be. He has a sound swing with some loft to drive the ball, showing he had extra-base power the other way, but it’s not great bat speed and that has borne out over the past 12 months in the small sample of pitches he’s seen with above-average velocity. He does so many other things well that I think he’s worthy of a top-10 pick, even with concerns about how well he’ll catch up to big-league fastballs.

That'll do Rook. Promising start.

So is Bazzana still considered to go #1
There isn't really a clear cut super obvious 1-1 guy. But probably either Condon/Bazzana.
