I love how they promoted Stanton to make his MLB debut against Strasburg who is making his. That is awesome. I'll be watching for sure.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 8, 2010 -> 11:22 AM) Ross Wilson, and no Always beat me before the edit.

Nationals took Cole BTW. If they sign him, that would be a tremendous addition that could potentially pair with Strasburg. Indians just took Blair. Fathom, did your boy Ross Wilson get picked yet?

I just noticed LAA took Dan Tillman in the second. That is a tremendous pick of LAA, though I thought he would last til the third. Remember he was one of the guys I wanted the sox to take in later rounds. (other two were Shipers and Guy)

Thomas Royse is the pick. Know nothing about him.

Sox are up next again.

QUOTE (T R U @ Jun 8, 2010 -> 12:05 PM) the bats in our system are also bleak.. we need a lot of everything This. Our position players are also very poor. Other than Carter (and I guess Poreda), we really didn't lose much in the Peavy deal.

Where the hell is Heads to keep the list updated?

Pirates are gonna be really scary in a couple years if all goes right. This is what I just said yesterday. QUOTE (SoxAce @ Jun 7, 2010 -> 05:22 PM) It'll be interesting to see from the Royals on what happens in this draft. If Grandal falls, I think that changes some complexion of it. I will also like to say the Pirates are going to be sick in a couple of years. I can't wait till they begin their Rockies-like rise in the NL Central. BTW, I like our second pick, but he is going to be a reliever no doubt in my mind.

We have another Reed in our system. Sox are really stock picking on pitchers.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jun 8, 2010 -> 10:39 AM) Wow, I thought the Phillies would take Wilson here. I guess I'll shut up about Wilson. He's obviously going to college. I told you weeks ago don't be surprised to see him fall that far. I honestly thought Ranuado would fall further as well, but it was Cole.

Quick question. Say the Hawks win on Wednesday, will Dale Tallon get his name on the cup (and get a ring)? I know he was with us this year early on, and now isn't (with another org). I mean he is the one who basically created this Hawks team. I would hope if it's a no, Rocky, John (especially) and Stan really give him pub/salute him in some way. I already feel bad for Cam Barker as well...

(NO we do NOT sleep around ..that isn't natural or healthy!! lol) ...BUT we do not talk about masturbation!! It's come up a few times ..but we don't go into detail about it. haha No wonder your fiancee popped the question.

Might be the first (and only) time I didn't give a rats ass about how our minor leaguers did. Though I'm glad my boy Nate Jones had a decent outing. Shoemaker had a nice night in a double header too.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 7, 2010 -> 09:47 PM) Blair was picked by Cards. I'd love for Sox to take Washington or Allie or Wilson, but I can't see that happening. Ah I didn't see it. Damn Cards, though might have been a bit overdrafted, I like Blair alot and can see where they stand on his upside. And who knows fathom.. I didn't think we would pick Sale even when he fell to us. Thought he would pass on him. QUOTE (daggins @ Jun 7, 2010 -> 09:44 PM) Paxton too. Maybe the Sox load up on lefties!!!#!@!@! It'd be funny anyways. I wouldn't mind at all, in fact I would love it. We are pretty thin still with LHP in our system. Sale, Holmberg is nice... but that is it really. (I still do like Leesman, though he has really been disappointing this year)

Like I said in the other thread, if Allie falls... I hope we draft him. If not, I'll be fine with Washington or Workman and a high upside guy like Blair in the third or a project like Morris.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Jun 7, 2010 -> 05:07 PM) everything Rock FTW!

QUOTE (daggins @ Jun 7, 2010 -> 09:23 PM) White Sox got one of the better picks I think with Sale. Rays and Red Sox had the best first days, and Tigers did the most with least. A few teams got steals this day. Our white sox were defintiely one of those teams.

Outstanding pick. If anyone doesn't believe any of us (especially fathom ) check out the draft board on futuresox and you'll know.

I hope we get Allie tomorrow. If not, I would not mind Workman or a position player like Washington. Rays, Red Sox, Rockies and Tigers with great drafts so far. I like the Cardinals draft too. Cox at #25 was amazing for them to rebuild that system. Angels obviously have a plan with the high schoolers. We'll see if it works for them.

Ima say we got position player in with the next pick.. and i'm feeling Washington. I'm out though until 10 guys. Woo Sale!

QUOTE (IowaSoxFan @ Jun 7, 2010 -> 06:30 PM) No reason for them not to take Cox. Did they move Vitters out of 3B? Haven't really looked at their minors in a while. NVM they took a pitcher.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 7, 2010 -> 06:27 PM) Honestly, no idea right now. My wife is hoping they take Ross Wilson in the 5 round range, as she loved him on Two-a-Days Kid from Alabama? I would hope the sox scouted over there from kids playing in their own background in their affiliate. Don't want another Desmond Jennings situation. I honestly don't know much about him. I know Jason loves Gary Brown, and is trying to put me on the bandwagon.

Cubs on the clock. Honestly they can go a ton of directions with their choice.

Now... fathom, Dirty, Jeff.. anyone you eying for the second pick that might fall?
