OK, so who do you want at 77 tomorrow? If you actually have an opinion at this stage.

John Hart, working for the Braves now, seemed very familiar with Adams. He sounded like he really liked the pick. Hope he gets signed and in the system.

A pitcher named Blewett...can't make that up.

I hate that nobody at MLB Network has corrected Amsinger on the pronunciation of Gillaspie. Two years in the bigs, man.

QUOTE (Dunt @ Jun 5, 2014 -> 08:09 PM) This draft is taking WAAAAAYYYYY too long, won't see our second pick til 1030 at this rate I'll say 9:50-10. After the first round, they take less time. 2 minutes, I think. First round should be over at 9:25.

Good for Selig! The rest of the crew....

Might be getting close to Gillaspie time. Will Selig say it wrong?

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 5, 2014 -> 07:50 PM) Doug Padilla @ESPNChiSox 9m Direct. of am. scouting Doug Laumann said it's unfair to put Rodon on a Chris Sale fast track. Sale arrived 2 mos. after he was drafted. Maybe that's a negotiating thing. I'm not reading into that one way or the other. He'll get signed. He'll pitch. He'll be up when he's ready.

It really was the best case scenario for the Sox, with Aiken and Kolek off the board. There really is no regret factor possible. They took the best guy available and now it's up to the gods.

Still would like to know what would have happened if Aiken-Rodon went 1-2.

Just coming on here now--avoided the spoilers. When the Marlins took Kolek, yeah, I yelled a little. /meatball Happy with Rodon. Hope he's the second lefty in the pen by August.

QUOTE (southside hitman @ Jun 5, 2014 -> 04:59 PM) Two hours away if you are interested in actual picks being made. I don't think I'll put myself through the torture of watching the pre-draft show. The Astros probably pick in about 70-75 minutes. They don't mess around once they start in an hour.

QUOTE (Knuckles @ Jun 5, 2014 -> 04:57 PM) Damn it! Sox probably pick around 6:30. They'll probably give a little extra time to the first few picks.

Nola looks like Donn Pall. Hope the upside is just a little better.

It would be so baseball if Tyler Beede still had the best career of all of them, and nobody is talking about him in the top 3 today.
