QUOTE(JoeBatterz @ Jun 13, 2006 -> 07:42 PM) Down here in Nashville, they do not even like if you raise your voice on the air and they will not even take your call if you are not going to suck up to the local teams and talk about how great they are. Drives me fricking nuts! im in nashville for school and i dont even listen to the local guys...they are bad.....i always just stream am1000 or the score thru the net

how about brian simmons or mckay christenson?

who ever said his D is suspect? the guy has absolutely incredible range and a pretty good arm. it is true that he isnt quite as polished as youd like him to be (at least 2 years ago) but in those two years im sure hes progressed. as for his offense, what he is doin right now isnt a mirage.....his average is a little high probably, but the SBs are for real, and anyone who has seen him hit BP knows 7 homers isnt alot for him

Saw shelby play...love this pick...hes got power and speed...much more tools than getz had last year

i cant believe laporta hasnt been picked yet.....i know the sox dont really need 1b, but laporta in the 4th round is the definition of a value pick

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Jun 6, 2006 -> 01:07 PM) Or we like them because they develop quickly so we will be able to market them in a trade a lot more quick. Taking a project means you have a couple years till they are in AA (the point where guys really become marketable for the most part). Taking a guy like Broadway or McCulloch means they are in AA by the time they are eligible (assuming they stay healthy and aren't total busts) so they are immediately very valuable on the trade market. yep not only are broadway and mcculloch ready to play at the middle levels of the minors, but htey are likely to put up good numbers, having played against great competition already...that will inflate their numbers, and thus their trade-ability

QUOTE(Flash Tizzle @ Jun 6, 2006 -> 01:03 PM) I'm convinced the White Sox purposely drafted a Lance Broadway clone just to irritate me. Why didn't they take Pedro Beato? I'll be sure to follow Beato's progress through Baltimore's minor league system, as I have with Carrillo. Can anyone tell me who Minnesota drafted? I'm guessing it's a hard throwing, right hander with a plus slider who'll be dominating our lineup for years. they took parmlee....HS OFer from california, i dont know much about him but whats inteh scouting report, but line drive hitter with a smooth lefthanded stroke...think ryan sweeney

jebus....kids who were born in 88 have been drafted.... brooks brown goes...i was hopin hed fall farther ....hes good

QUOTE(Soxfest @ Jun 6, 2006 -> 12:53 PM) Anyone got a feel on the signing ability Kyle McCulloch to a quick deal? not sure who his agent is, but he was drafted by the mets outa high school and didnt sign then, but he was an 18th rounder, not a first...if the sox picked him, and judging by the fact that he doesnt have overpowering stuff....im gonna go out on a limb and say hell sign by the end of the week supplemental round back under way...dodgers take preston mattingly....beato goes to the Os mattingly is a huge shock...it is dons kid

6. Kyle McCulloch, rhp (National rank: 16) School: Texas. Class: Jr. Hometown: Houston B-T: R-R. Ht.: 6-3. Wt.: 185. Birthdate: 3/20/85. Scouting Report: McCulloch's stuff isn't as sexy as the pitchers ahead of him on this list, though he's a better bet to reach his ceiling as a No. 3 or 4 starter than most. "He's a safe pick," a regional crosschecker said. "You know he's a big leaguer. Maybe you get Brad Radke out of him." The Longhorns initially signed McCulloch as a shortstop out of Houston power Bellaire High, where he played both ways but first emerged as an infielder. He's a good athlete for a pitcher and quite consistent. McCulloch's velocity has been down a little this year, as his fastball has sat at 88-90 mph, compared to 89-92 in 2005, when he won the deciding game of the College World Series. His best pitch is his plus changeup, and both his curveball and solid are effective if not spectacular. Early in the spring, he struggled when he relied too heavily on his secondary stuff, but righted himself when he returned to working off his fastball. Besides winning at premier high school and college programs, McCulloch also has proven himself against top summer competition. He held his own as a reliever in the Cape Cod League in 2004 and tied for the Team USA college team lead with four victories in 2005. iirc....same school as chris young

QUOTE(quickman @ Jun 6, 2006 -> 12:35 PM) Hope he eats more hes shorter 6-3 and has a more of a frame that he will add bulk.....mlb said the sox proabbly didnt expect him to be at 29 and couldnt resist taking him once he fell

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Jun 6, 2006 -> 12:33 PM) Seems to have pretty good secondary stuff and has only played against top competition. playing against competition is huge....especially for a team who trades prospects like we do...lthey can succeed in lower minors vs. guys abotu hte level they have faced before, and that helps to give them great #s at teh lower minors, even if they are never going to make it big at AAA...think borchard

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Jun 6, 2006 -> 12:32 PM) We seem to have an affinity for this type of pitcher. So much for the power arm. it would have been interesting to see if the bosox didnt take bard which the sox woulda gone with

QUOTE(Cerbaho-WG @ Jun 6, 2006 -> 12:31 PM) Well, here it is everyone: White Sox select Kyle Mucolloch UT @ Austin another broadway type pitcher...should move quickly through the organization

QUOTE(thomsonmi @ Jun 6, 2006 -> 12:30 PM) Bard to Red Sox god i hate that franchise

QUOTE(maggsmaggs @ Jun 6, 2006 -> 12:23 PM) Does anybody thing Daniel Bard could slip to the Sox? It would be sweet to let him work as a reliever for us down to stretch to save innings and bring him up in Sept. keeping my fingers crossed

QUOTE(daa84 @ Jun 6, 2006 -> 12:20 PM) lots of high school pitchers going higher than projected drabek to the phillies at 18
