LOL If Grant Smith were Hagen Smith's little brother, you could give him 150k without counting against your pool. You could drop Hagen by 150k , again LOL. Next year we need a first rounder with ten to twenty little brothers/cousins. We save millions and sign EVERYBODY. LOL system beaten

Sox sign Grant Smith SS. No school listed at present.

https://www.mlb.com/prospects/stats/affiliates?teamId=145&date=07/17/2024 https://www.milb.com/scores/all/all/whitesox Mogollon ops 1.759 in July. Don’t know if something clicked/luck/bad pitching.

If a guy can't throw strikes but is ranked #213, I think it speaks to the weakness in the draft.

https://www.mlb.com/prospects/stats/affiliates?teamId=145&date=07/16/2024 https://www.milb.com/scores/all/all/whitesox Moncada and Hackenberg have been rehabbing with. the ACL team.

I think Smith was very close to slot. Burns went 2 to Cincy. Bet he took a big discount. Slot value 2 vs 5 difference was 2 million. That's how after 5 rounds and 6 picks, Cincy had 6 MLB top 80 while Sox had 2

Think more of a 2B and leadoff hitter with his lack of power but high OBP

Ryan Prager sounds interesting in his write up. A command lefty would be a bit of a change of pace from some of our hard throwers. Hope he doesn't become a guardian lol.

We have a long history of overslot seconds, many when they weren't expected to require that (Sheets etc).

Not sure if it was that and/or the 5% of your pool that you can go over without more than a 75%tax. Beyond the 5%, you lose your first round pick the following year.

Shirley, in his first day draft interview, mentioned two interesting things. First, a kinda vague intimation about Sox using their overage/savings on day one. I don't have the quote but he kinda stopped a sentence midstream like maybe TMI. Second, he mentioned higher asks by high schoolers than in the past. He mentioned 2 million dollar asks and that hopefully after a night of sleep and adjusting to the disappointment of not going day one that prices might come down.

https://www.mlb.com/prospects/stats/affiliates?teamId=145&date=07/14/2024 https://www.milb.com/scores/all/all/whitesox Bush first AAA start. Schweitzer.

https://www.mlb.com/prospects/stats/affiliates?teamId=145&date=07/13/2024 https://www.milb.com/scores/all/all/whitesox Gowens for AA

Any word on what is injured?

Interesting that Rosenthal mentioned teams may make deadline trades and include competitive balance picks this year. Obviously, you would have to do trade in next couple days. With it being a weak draft, I wouldn't mind picks next year as some of the compensation like we did to have the extra second rounder this year.

Eder returned to Birmingham

https://www.mlb.com/prospects/stats/affiliates?teamId=145&date=07/12/2024 https://www.milb.com/scores/all/all/whitesox Keener listed for Kan

Moncada 3/3 in ACL!

I’ve seen use lose all affiliate games multiple times. Not sure I’ve seen them all shutout. Kannapolis still has a bit to go though being no hit.

.280 .346 .580 .926 Robert's triple slash line over the last two weeks.. Hopefully remains like this for awhile as the rust gets off him.

Pallette with second straight appearance from the pen. Don't know if permanent or working on stuff?
