southsider2k5 Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 Another tidbit from Law. Â Jim 3:45 Where would Luis Robert go in this draft class? Â Keith Law 3:45 Probably middle of the first round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iamshack Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 QUOTE (raBBit @ Jun 12, 2017 -> 12:48 PM) Key to Sox draft is a 2-3 of Thompson/Hiura/Baz/Faedo going in the top ten. Or said a different way, 2-3 teams going underslot ahead of them. It could be any number of different guys at those selections that sets the Sox up for someone falling to them.

pmb0928 Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 QUOTE (StrykerSox @ Jun 12, 2017 -> 01:45 PM) Do we think a top 3 pick in 2019 is likely, or even desirable? I think we've got to be better than that with Moncada/Fulmer/Giolito/Lopez contributing at MLB in 2018. Not contending yet, but if we totally suck, I think that's a bad turn for some of our first tier... Â I am with you, we are not absolutely terrible right now so its a stretch to be that bad.

fathom Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 In Piliere final mock top ten, he has a worst case scenario with the following being drafted: - Haseley - Beck - McKay - Greene - Adell - Wright - Bukauskas - Gore - Smith - Lewis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd guess he's their pick as well, but they're a strange team. Â Funny thing is, a guy like Hiura would be the standard Beane pick for that organization in past years.

bmags Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 Does anyone else really like David Peterson? A 6'6 lefty with plus control and fastball slider combo with a playable changeup. I'd be happy going underslot for him and getting a play at one of the HS SS/OFs at 49. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
