I'm more worried about the hit tool than anything. That was supposed to be his carrying tool. And I was very fond of the pick at the time. I truly wonder what the Sox are/have been doing with his development plan.

Or maybe he got yelled at.

Haha. I think a few of us do that. I'm guilty. Hard not to when you read such glowing assessments of the hit tool, power, strike zone prowess and proximity to the bigs.

Also for our Blake Walston fan.

Via BA draft chat today. Also, mock tomorrow.

Hostetler.

Or likely Detroit if he makes it past Miami.

Until you posted this, I had completely forgotten Jon Jay in fact exists.

Wowo Charlie.

Get hot Eloy!

Yep. I'm not sure the top scouting reports changed much at all either. The most noteworthy ranking change for me is Baty jumping to 15 from 19. Other than that, the next biggest jump I see is Alec Marsh to 98 from 123. Marsh is pretty interesting though. Especially when your system desperately needs pitching.

Covey looked pretty sharp that inning tbh.

Oof. That was a feeble Moncada AB. Weakly waving at 3 fastballs.

I'm totally on board with dealing Colome too. Should bring back something valuable. Won't be around when the White Sox are viable. Also:

Rabbit also tweeted recently how he would have Mendick, Collins, and Palka up in the near future. I'd be okay with this.

Much more than what he would have received in the draft.

Holy shit that was crushed.

Who was the rumored prep player the White Sox were trying to push down the board in 2018? It was Nick Schnell right? It was someone from Indiana.

Burr opening.

So you too are anticipating some sort of savings if Abrams is the pick?

Hmm. Is it just me, or is the Abrams draft profile not all that different from Tim Anderson? Albeit a prep player versus Juco. Both toolsy, both slightly raw, both high end speed grades, both with questions on sticking at SS with CF as a fallback? I imagine TA graded out higher on the power though. TA scouting report from BA from his draft year.

Just one.

Hah. I'm considering taking the 3rd off so I can spend most of the day refreshing twitter for the latest rumors. Hopefully they include some permutations of Baltimore not taking Adley.
