Things looked way more dire after going down 2-1 to Boston. Have faith in this team, they earned it.

I thought it was tonight.

Here's the Kiley article in full: http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/the-black-s...fting-pitchers/

QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ Jun 9, 2015 -> 07:30 AM) After getting Fulmer and not having another pick until the fourth round, I think the Sox have to make a big run at this guy. We save a good chunk of money on the Draft this year from the lack of high picks and are completely bereft of minor league offensive talent. I am not sure there is one guy in the minors that you can comfortably say will be a major leaguer. Martinez would not solve that massive issue, but he would be the only high-end offensive talent in the system that desperately needs one. This is a good point, but depends if leadership views this as savings when the reality is they spent much more by signing expensive major league talent. I really hope we land them, you all are right that there is really way too much smoke if we just expected to offer the allotted amount.

Bulldog performance with those delays

Cubs loaded up on college bats, they are great at developing them. I hope we stick to our college arms thing as well.

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Jun 8, 2015 -> 07:00 PM) Everyone is happy about this pick which only means one thing: bust. Just kidding. Glad we got someone everyone wanted in the first place Tell you what, this board has been pretty pessimistic about some pretty bad players out of the draft. i'm relieved everyone likes him. (secretly wanted stephenson) (hitters are more fun to follow)

Officially official. I wonder what HOF they compare him too with arms.

Going to wait for announcement after the Jay/Cameron thing.

Remembering now how I thought Khalil Greene would be best shortstop of all time.

Not gonna lie, I know you all want pitchers, I want pitchers, but secretly wanted benintendi

Would be adorable if red sox secretly coveted Harris here to save us from ourselves.

QUOTE (DirtySox @ Jun 8, 2015 -> 06:46 PM) Passan is suggesting Benintendi for Boston. Though he's a bit less connected then others for draft stuff. Law said same thing.

I'm guessing Law's tweet about benintendi wouldn't change here just because of Jay?

wellp. That was a surprise.

Tucker is Joe DiMaggio.

Kyle Tucker, we hardly mock draft knew ye.

QUOTE (daa84 @ Jun 8, 2015 -> 06:36 PM) this is embarrassingly bad production quality by mlb network. Bring back the conference call! It's really bad. They seem to answer every question with "More bricks! More astroturf!"

I hope the astros go weird here.

SS SS SS

Is there anyone that spoils the mlb draft like there is for NFL?

Are they told to take this amount of time for TV?

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Jun 8, 2015 -> 05:40 PM) First termed minor arthroscopic surgery, later Noah said it was "more than arthroscopic surgery" but nothing confirmed Crazy. All of us that were so excited about this season look a lot less stupid if they actually had 4th in MVP noah and not "career is over" noah.

What exactly was his surgery?

No way Cowley's source is Thibs.
