I assume Rock is referring to Rondo and not talking about it before the draft
Rajon?
But yes, I assume he was talking about the Rodon pick as well.
QUOTE (Joshua Strong @ Jun 5, 2014 -> 08:52 PM)
Yeah after this draft and the international signing period the Sox have a strong chance of easily having a 15 farm system, maybe even top ten.
Top 10 is definitely a stretch.
QUOTE (Joshua Strong @ Jun 5, 2014 -> 08:45 PM)
We all agree that Rodon is the top prospect in the system, assuming that he signs?
Oh ya, no one's close.

And with the Marlins it is really hard to say that taking a guy who a lot of people had as a top 3 pick that is one of the hardest throwers ever at #2 is really a surprise or crazy.
Maybe a surprise but definitely not crazy.

A Jason Parks jerk-fest coming up soon with Holmes getting picked. The only thing that would make Parks more excited would have been if the Cubs took him, even at #4.
Is this kid slow?

Has a team ever succeeded with 4 lefty starters?
Probably not cause it's hard to find 4 good left handed starters. If they're all good who cares what hand they throw with?

Man you guys are going haywire.
I was joking but he will be in the bigs this year, no doubt in my mind.

For those at work, this is streaming at mlb.com
Yup. I'm just waiting for someone to come in and bug me right when the Sox are on the clock.

Not an exact quote but...
"If you're Miami or the Cubs this a guy who can help you in the race from the 'pen this year." Gammons in reference to Rodon.
Huh?
