When we look back in a couple weeks and see that Allan doesn't sign with them, I think you'll be ok with the Sox haul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My guess is that they are saving like $500K on Vaughn and maybe another $500K or so on Thompson. Thompson had a down year. He might be under $1.5 million. Good stuff so far. That would be an ideal scenario. I'd love them to grab another high upside player in the fourth, like Brewer or Doughty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiliIrishHammock24 Posted June 4, 2019 Share Posted June 4, 2019 Cubs likely saved a ton of money with their 1st RD pick, I wonder if they go with a HS kid with this kid. Did they save enough to go for Jack Leiter? And can they use their prestige to woo him? Maybe another highly ranked HS kids that's a very tough sign instead.

Their prestige of developing arms has been absolutely horrific though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DirtySox Posted June 4, 2019 Share Posted June 4, 2019 I still feel like Dyson is a White Sox-eque pick if they decide to nab a college arm in the 3rd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DirtySox Posted June 4, 2019 Share Posted June 4, 2019 I feel like the Dodgers have had a real solid draft. They just keep grabbing value that falls to them. Couple that with the development chops they have, and you have a model organization. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Parkman Posted June 4, 2019 Share Posted June 4, 2019 (edited) If they go pitcher, Erik Miller would be great. If they go hitter, I'm down for Jerrion Ealy or Chris Newell. Edited June 4, 2019 by Jack Parkman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're probably right but with all the pitching injuries... So far 1 bat and 2 pitchers. Not out of the ordinary to pick another arm.
