6/9/15 GDT Astros @ Sox
QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ Jun 10, 2015 -> 01:46 AM) The Sox have a -1.6 position player WAR this year. They really are trying to go for some sort of position-player ineptitude. Who's that? You could tell me it's one of four guys and I would believe it

Another awful at bat by Flowers. He really needs to be released. 3-28 with bases loaded in his awful career.

QUOTE (Eminor3rd @ Jun 9, 2015 -> 08:46 PM) Same. The stuff looks ML ready. No idea if his control needs work or if he's consistent enough, but it looks to me like the only question mark is whether or not his body holds up with that delivery. I've watched a ton of his games this year (Vandy seemed to be the Thurs night ESPNU game all season), and I think his command is the biggest area he needs to improve. If he can be consistent with his fastball location (much like Rodon), it will allow him to use his superior offspeed pitch(es) to strike out a lot of hitters.

QUOTE (raBBit @ Jun 9, 2015 -> 06:47 PM) I really like the Stephens pick. Strong track record at a good school. Big time second offering. Senior signing so should be under slot. I may be reaching but Erwin/Stephens both look like under slot to me, maybe the Sox have some high school upside in the next few rounds. Any scouting report on what he throws?

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 9, 2015 -> 07:41 PM) White Sox are now 5 rounds into mlbdraft without selecting a position player. Does this increase the odds of hitting the Cuban market? Don't think there's any correlation, as you're not counting on the guys picked here to be an impact player.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jun 9, 2015 -> 07:33 PM) I think your expectations of 4th round picks are a bit high. The White Sox have 2 4th round picks out of 50 that have put up at least a 1.0 WAR for them for their career. well said

I really like the Brewers draft so far. Kirby was a great pick for them.

Matt Hall from Missouri St. would be a nice pick. Dominated Arkansas (who crushed Jon Harris), and I believe he led the NCAA in strikeouts

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Jun 9, 2015 -> 04:37 AM) Chances Matuella makes it to the fourth? If so, do you take him? No, because he is unlikely to sign if picked so low by a team with a small draft budget. Considering the lack of picks for the Sox, you need to make sure you can sign the guy.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 9, 2015 -> 03:30 AM) Even on a night where Chris Sale is other worldly, The Misery Crew is here to take a sledgehammer to people's ankles. Thanks to all of the Kathy Bates' of So talk. Did you see what Sanchez did?
