He looks like a good player. Keep assembling talent, and with proper development, the Sox will have a team. Actually the Sox should be good before he's ready for the majors. And Singer still hasn't been drafted. I don't know what him at 4 all about - didn't make sense. Edited June 5, 2018 by GreenSox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lillian Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 There seems to be some debate about how tall Nick is. His dad says 5' 7". I wouldn't be surprised if he is even shorter. However, I don't view it as a negative. Remember, smaller strike zone, and shorter path for the bat to the hitting zone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicago White Sox Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 I could see Gorman going to the Royals at one of their picks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He can't complain that his staff picked Madrigal, and passed on Singer. The rest of us, who also opposed Singer as our first selection, should feel vindicated, as well. What?

He can play and obviously size isn't that important for position players. Yea all things equal give me a guy like Moncada or TA body wise but all things aren't equal. Kid can hit and he can field. It's a skills game for the most part. Edited June 5, 2018 by chitownsportsfan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackSox13 Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 Wow. I anticipated Singer could slide further than what was speculated after his last performance but damn. Didn't think he would slide this far. He's skydiving without a parachute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
