Final mock in picture form?

I only see last night's. Callis said it had been submitted already an hour or so ago.

Cmon Fangraphs! You can't release the last freaking mock 15 minutes before the draft starts!

Luckily next year's draft class is very heavy on quality pitching (at this juncture.) The Sox need some badly.

Robert single and a walk so far.

What happens if we see a 1.) Bleday 2.) Adley scenario? I could see the White Sox still taking Vaughn over Witt. I think @Harold's Leg Lift might have a conniption if that happens.

He's a first baseman.

One would think so. He's been terrible every year they do this. Luckily the supporting cast of Callis/Mayo/Carlos from BA are very very good.

I'm pretty fine with any of the top 6. Slight preference to Vaughn (assuming Adley is gone) since I buy both the hit tool and the power. He will be an imposing force in the middle of the lineup in short order. A Yoan/Eloy/Vaughn/TA heart of the lineup (in some order) would be very fun.

Law noting that the Marlins are considering Abrams. Tigers then would likely take Bleday.

How many Harold memes do we get this year?

Thanks boss. Just a reminder. Picks get spoiled here. They leak on Twitter before the selection and are subsequently posted here. If you don't want to be spoiled, don't read the thread.

Ugh. I forgot how terrible the MLB draft show can be. Harold is awful at this. So meme-worthy. At least Callis/Mayo and the BA guys are solid.

We gonna keep going in this thread, or are we gonna have a new one for actual selection time?

(Isn't up yet, but no certainty at the top is a good thing.)

Yum.

Interesting. From the Fangraphs scouting report on Abrams. Is he the makeup guy?

I like that he consider's Vaughn a "no-doubter."

Neither Law or the BA folks have heard much on the Baty rumor.

I generally paste whatever I copied as plain text, then quote it via the toolbar. Upper right in attached snip.
