Edwards or Torres with second pick would be awesome. Throw in Pinklington as someone who could also slip to mid 40s.

Law has Singer going #2 to the Giants in his latest mock. No way he falls out of top 5-6. That said, Rocker is just 18, 6'5"/250 and effortlessly sits in mid-90s with a plus slider. Would love to watch him progress through the system. The guy is a specimen.

For me, if Singer falls to 4, you take him. I do feel that India compares favorably to Bohm but would prefer a polished college arm here although I can warm up to Rocker if Mize and Singer are gone.

India attended American Heritage high school in Plantation, Florida. He was drafted in the 26th round in 2015 by the Milwaukee Brewers but did not sign. The Gators put him into the lineup immediately; India hit .330/.367/.440 with 13 steals in 234 at-bats as a freshman, then tailed off to .274/.354/.429 with 13 steals in 212 at-bats as a sophomore. However, he was a solid performer with wooden bats in the Cape Cod League for two summers, hitting .290/.405/.403 in ‘16 and .273/.390/.394 in ‘17. source MLB Draft

Except he has a stellar track record. Better than Bohm's.

The best player is India.

I don't know selection criteria but India is simply the best positional player in college baseball. He is considered a much better defensive 3rd baseman than Bohm with the added benefit of emergency SS. Ripping cover off ball. Whats not to like about this guy?

Very encouraging to see Rose progressing in Birmingham. Playing 3B and hitting with authority. Can he become a viable option at 3rd?

Just no reason to take a positional player if there are high quality college arms such as Mize, Singer, McClanahan and maybe Gilbert available. Go for the gas.

I don't think any of the positional players are worth #4 pick with possible exception of Turang finishing season with momentum. Alternatively, Sox are positioned to land a rotation piece like Singer or Rocker (assuming Mize is gone). I like Mize as #1 but you can make a case for Singer being 1A and don't let the mocks fool you...Rocker will be the first HS pitcher taken.

Am worried about our young pitching. I get the notion of BPA but with Rodon and Hansen hurting and Giolito and Fulmer struggling, I would use 4 on a polished college pitcher. If Mize is gone (and if he isn't its probably due to arm issues), I would be focused on Brady Singer or Logan Gilbert, two big (6'5") fireballers who have had great success over last couple of years.
