He should try first base, although he may have to wait for the offseason. Until then, keep playing him and let that hit tool develop. He definitely has skills. Davidson needs to be in the lineup, too. Thompson just can't hit, although the outfield defense with him, Tilson and Engel is probably the best in a decade. But it really doesn't help development. Of course I say this as someone who believes they should move Abreu over the next 6 weeks. The time has come.

As a non-tanker fan, I must say, nice win. Mostly good pitching across the board today.

A player I assume that they intended on trading for some return. What a lollipop pitch Jones threw. Plus, I don't see how it's good for player development for players to lose heart, which happens when you clown it up like that. And of course beaten by Escobar....one of 2 magic 8 ball trades made that year.

Also the alma mater (presuming he finished) of Williams, Jr.

Who are you talking about? Pinkington? That's why I'm meh - velo has dropped a good bit this season.

Sox like 'em some Shockers. Didn't the Sox draft this Bryce guy a few years ago?

Like #1 Meh on #2 and #3; no real objection, just not my cup of tea for those spots. Like the rest.

I ask for prep players, because they have the leverage. And I don't think the Sox have taken any college seniors who have no leverage and who they can ding for 10K and overspend on others.

Will they be able to sign him?

This is where I like drafting the goofy delivery guys. Straighten it out a little bit, or get it consistent, and you may get something good.

Need more power out of LF. CF, maybe. But put the guy in CF who leaves the Sox with the best 2B/SS/CF defensive triad, regardless of who is established.

That's what I said. Hansen high ceiling. They didn't go high floor in round 4; I presume he's high ceiling. FIU so they should be able to sign him.

It's a little strange that they go high floor so much considering what is probably their best pick under Hostetler, Hansen, was high ceiling, and low floor.

And there goes Spillane. I guess I need new lists.

True, but just they aren't in the 3 I look at; and per fangraphs, 3 top 70 college pitchers are available (and numerous top 100 college players). No need to reach. Adn I know that Maggs didn't say those guys for round 3 necessarily.

Most of Round 3 is picked inside the top 100

Those guys aren't top 100.

Why do you think Polo is ready for AAA?

Hopefully he develops sufficiently to be FT catcher. Sox can find/have DHs.

What's the gameplan for tomorrow? Arms?

Of all the people the Yankees could choose to represent, they pick...Swisher? This looks like a solid pick. Maybe just some "fatigue" as we have several prospects with similar profiles/backgrounds and they haven't really rocketed through the minors.

Any college guys who wouldn't be a reach on talent?

Is Schnell is there - isn't he the guy some theorized we could take at 4?

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.
