2024 Official Draft Thread - Day 1
Looking at the video on Bonemar there are some quick fixes to help him out. He barely loads and the lower half isn’t being used. Needs to be more athletic with his swing.

I haven’t heard anything about his makeup. What are reports saying?

Herrera hasn’t been in the lineup the past 2 weeks down in the DSL. Any word?

I love Griffin’s tools, but that swing needs some work.

I actually don't think that. I'm just making fun of Caulfield's depressing observations.

I think the Sox are bottom five farm system after reading that.

Story on Sox trade possibilities...
Miller’s bat is legit. He would have been a Top 10 prospect in last year's draft if he didn’t break his hamate bone.

Story on Sox trade possibilities...
Miller would have to be in the deal for Roberts. If not I’m looking somewhere else. Painter as the headliner is way too risky.

Want players that can play up the middle. Hard pass on Cags! Knowing Getz puts a huge value on defense I don't see him drafting another 1B type in the Top 5. Would by ecstatic with either Griffin or Rainer.

The college ball seems so juiced up this year.

Law has a big write up on some HS/College players : Lindsey, Honeycutt, Yesavage, Rainer, Curiel, Sirota etc. My school is blocking my athletic so I can't share. Lindsey, Rainer, Yesavage Stock up Honeycutt, Siorta-Down Curiel-Thinks he should stay in school and let the body develop can possibly be a top draft pick down the road if stays with the commitment to LSU.

Cease To Padres per Passan
Eno mentioned he had a trusted scout that backed up his velocity readings.

Cease To Padres per Passan
Listened to Eno Saris Podcast. Mentioned how Thorpe has been having trouble getting to 90mph on his fastball. Definitely worrisome!

Sox speaking about bringing back Clevinger
Bob Nightengale @BNightengale Now that the Chicago White Sox traded Dylan Cease and Michael Kopech is being moved to the bullpen, they are internally discussing the possibility of bringing back free-agent starter Mike Clevinger. Clevinger was their most consistent starter last year: 9-9 with a 3.77 ERA. 11:25 AM · Mar 14, 2024 · 189.8K Views

Nightengale just mentioned Sox in talks with Clevinger.

Grade the Cease trade
I gave the trade a C+. This puts some pressure on the new development team to finish the progress on Zavala and Iriarte. That is the biggest concern I have with the trade. I'm willing and crossing my fingers Bannister, Barfield, and Janish are putting things in place that made them successful in previous stops.

Cease To Padres per Passan
Thorpe is scariest part of the deal. If he loses any more on the fastball velocity he will not make it as a starter. I’m fine with the other two pieces, but Thorpe as the headliner makes me pause.

Wish Merrill would be involved, but they just announced he’s making the final roster. So he’s out.

Keith Law has his list out. Interesting rankings. Konner Griffin is #19. Disagree with that one.

2024 MiLB Catch All
Has anyone had their eyes yet on Jacob Gonzalez this Spring? I know Fangraphs mentioned how he worked on getting in better shape and possibly being opened to changes to his swing.
