With the way he is trending lately...that is great.

very much this. Unless Sox were going to sign him for 3 year deal...it didn't make sense this year. Best case scenario is he goes out and is solid (not amazing) and Sox can use him as a backup option if they can't swing the homerun on Cole. This also allows us to see Cease, get one last extended look at Covey...and hope ReyLo can put it together. 2020 is the appropriate time to compete. Twins being this good really put the damper on the false dream that they could compete this year.

Prosecky and Osmond picked this round. Dream of another high profile is gone. Interesting to see if any of these HS outfielders sign with Sox.

Nope, Fowler and Prosecky both still available.

honestly that makes most sense. They basically would need to waste almost every other pick to sign both. and Allan for sure could bolt. But both of them do have that carrot of the Met's pitching aura the last few years. the hype has been nuts.

I would love with all these low risk picks we are nabbing up, we still go crazy and try for Osmond or Spencer Jones.

no surprise. honestly probably the only way to get him away from College.

That is what we all expected. If this was truly wrist finally healing...this is great production

Yeah. I think it comes down to Robert. Do Sox want Robert to be the Alfonso Soriano leadoff type with 40 homers or slot him at #2 or #5. Moncada as a #2 just works I think. If I had my way for 2021- 1. Robert 2. Moncada 3. Jimenez 4. Vaughn 5. JD Martinez/Collins/Burger DH 6. McCann/Collins 7. Anderson 8. RF FA 9. Madrigal For 2020 I think JD is the target for DH and you put whomever at first.

Having him hit with Robert again is not a bad thing. Also..hoping that change of scenery can light a fire a bit and he embraces the chance. Also good that barons are finally starting to hit as a team more...that can be contagious hopefully. And since yolmer is really it and will be looking at 6-7 mil in arbitration...I don't mind this one bit. Save that money for a RF bat

With drafting Vaughn ..literally the entire infield will be home grown...and McCann / Collins will be your catcher/DH set. Jimenez and Robert will be once again homegrown ...having one FA in your lineup for a rebuild is pretty dang successful.

Ha. all you have to do is look at the MLB draft tracker since round 5. rounds 6-9 have like one top 200 pick per all teams per round.

Do Sox do a few more sign guys and then go after Osmond? Any chance Barco is worth a chance even with Injury? And does anyone risk Maurice Hampton at this point? His tweet is gone, but his twitter cover image is him in the LSU jersey...

yeah, about 10K is the going rate for a 4 year senior. you either take it or don't extend your career.

Looks like sox got the first guy to save some cash.

Song to Boston. Man they always get good talent.

AGNOS!!!! FROM EAST CAROLINA!! yep, agreed.

I just can't wait for the SunTimes puns....Beard Feasting on the basepaths.

Right about when Robert needs to shift over to left or Right...we have his replacement in Center now. Love the HS direction.

i meant in draft philosophy. they also make a lot of money as well...

Cubs really have become cheap lately. I'm very good with that

I will let the experts chime in here...and react accordingly.

Looking at the list of Best Available from BA...it seems like a lot of pitching...I thought this was a very weak pitching draft? Or was that just first round talent? I definitely want the Sox to go after a top sign issue guy though, and try and snag first round talent if possible.

yeah. I live 8 minutes from Braves stadium and the one thing you know every night is Freddie is getting at least 1-2 hits and he is the rock of the team. Vaughn instantly slots every player on our team into their right slot. 1. Robert. 2. Moncada 3. Vaughn 4. Jimenez is INSANE.

Yes. We have our Freddie Freeman. Abreu either slots into DH or bye bye.
