Hard pass on Chrochet. Injuries and reliever risk. Has shown no evidence his arm can handle a starters load. Needs more development with his delivery. Has a short stride which causes shoulder injuries, which occurred this season.

Longenhagen is one of the best!!!

I’m not very excited about that pick. Gives up a lot hits/contact and hasn’t been dominant in the college ranks. Also, has had issues with his back. Take a pass on him. Rather go with with a hitter in the 1st and high ceilings pitchers with 2nd -5th. Just like last year.

Anyone get the Mock Draft from Baseball America?

Great team friendly deal!

He had Kevin Newman on his Top 100 twice. He was always the high man on Newman.

I’ll pass on Colas he’s been eating too many doughnuts.

Dodgers also received #67 draft pick from the Twins. In one of the strongest draft classes in years.

Totally agree Red Sox the big winner here. I’m a big fan of Jeter Downs. They needed a 2b. Verdugo 5 years, Downs, Wong, and a savings of $48 million for 1 year of Betts and Price whose a shell of himself.

Love it!! Great addition

It’s great that we are starting to catch up to the big boys.

This is huge against the Astros will hurt them tremendously. Could of have been worse though.

Huge!!!! Houston gets crippled here and well deserved.

Baseball America just came out with a 2020 Mock Draft. I stopped being a member. Does anyone have any info on first dozen picks?

Really don’t understand this trade for the Rays. They must know something we don’t. I think Liberatore has huge potential. Rays got a very light return.

https://bleacherreport.com/articles/2869598-cuban-star-prospect-oscar-colas-reportedly-seeking-mlb-contract-after-defecting You would think White Sox have a huge advantage here. Cross our fingers.

Great move and team friendly contract.

This is great stuff. Love the article on what Cleveland is doing. Must read!!!!

Nice signing!!!!

Don’t mind this deal!!! Needed a solid veteran. Good move.

I like this deal and think it will turn out in Sox favor. Mazara will only make $5.6 million, have 2 years of control, about to turn 25 years old best years are ahead of him, bats lefty which Sox needed. Walker is only 13 months younger in High A Ball, hasn't been able to hit lefties, and shown little power. I know Mazara also has had difficulties hitting lefties, but was rushed with the Rangers and I think things might click in a different environment. I know analytics have been down on him, but has a ton of upside and is definitely a need and risk the White Sox should take.

JD Martinez has 3 years and $62.5 left on his contract at Age 32. Abreu should be nowhere near that type of contract and he's 1 year older than Martinez.

Love the Grandal move bringing in a lefty at bat that gets on base that brings solid defense to help the rotation. Hate this Abreu signing. Ages 33-35 regression is a guaranteed and horrible defense at 1B and will eventually move to full time DH. Hate having one set player at DH. I like being able to rotate your DH when you have Eloy's bad defense and others needing a day off to help rest their bodies through a long season. This 3 year contract was completely Jerry leading the charge.

The only way things will change is Reinsdorf is 6 feet under and new ownership. Tired of the same broken record. It really is sad that every major league team is committed including Baltimore internationally. Pathetic
