Ok. Gonna take a while to remember these guys but for DSL: Carlos Histrenoza was mentioned by Ben Bailey as a sleeper, was a former ss that converted to the mound and was hitting low 90s. He pitched an inning with 2 Ks and no walks. Dario Barrero was also mentioned by BB. He had a hit. He’s 6’5 and 200 lbs and an OF. lastly Victor Quezada was 0-4, BB called him a power hitting 3b.

I think the mlb guys more than any other draft shows know this may be the big even for these guys and are in on trying to make that special for them.

shirley is clearly confident in their scouting: McDougal, whose father pitched in the minor leagues, isn’t as well known in draft prospect circles because he didn’t play in a lot of the big events, other than the 2020 Area Code Games, leading into his senior high school season. With a solid, projectable frame, McDougal is still very much an intriguing project with a very loose arm that delivers a fastball in the 92-94 mph range, touching 96 mph. His breaking ball, best labeled as a slurve, has a wide range of speeds and can be a plus pitch when he consistently delivers it at mid-80s slider speed. He slows his arm and doesn’t have a lot of feel for an 81-85 mph changeup. He has below-average command, in part because of a delivery with a head whack and plenty of moving parts, which could indicate a future as a bullpen arm, and he doesn’t work out of the windup much. McDougal is committed to Oregon.

Ranked #312 prospect in 2021 draft Gosswein is a 6-foot-2, 205-pound lefthander with big-time sinker life and a four-pitch mix. The 22-year-old will run his fastball up to 95 mph and it sits 90-93 but he profiles as a ground-ball pitcher. He has a slider and a slurvy curveball that both touch average, and the two pitches can blend together. When they do, he can get some swings and misses. The changeup has flashed better than average, making it a solid mix for an athletic southpaw with arm strength.

This sounds like a hostetler pick, but I'd be interested at this point in draft. 42 walks to 20 strikeouts. And sox have showedd that we are in an era of positionless baseball!

a bit, but it's not clear that kath was going to need a lot of cash to sign.

I'm kind of hoping that neither kath or montgomery were overslot so we can have a traditional 3-10 this year.

I think you are oversimplifying this into thinking people just want HS forever. This is a good draft to go prep infielder because they are deep, and they need more young talent in their org. It's not a problem to be more college heavy but sox were pretty much college exclusive for 5 years when at the same time signing robert meant an inability to add some of the higher rated 16-18 year olds from latam. It created a huge gap from the guys graduating charlotte now to Kanny, and we just hope a guy like romy gonzalez is another surprise that helps the sox. But high schoolers that are drafted offer premium athleticism that rarely gets its way onto college campuses, so there is higher upside for a star. Sox paid a lot to get guys like that in their rebuild, there is nothing wrong with targeting them. They just need more balance. And lastly, being top 25 vs top ten makes me want high schoolers more as they really do seem to have hit better in the 20s than many of the college guys. Look at how the cubs frantically tried to find plug and play college pitchers for years while dodgers got a bunch of prepsters. There is no easy answer in the draft.

If sox can teach him an effective change that could be a great pick.
