Theoretically, yes but I'm not sure punting 2/5 picks makes much sense. You should get the 5 best players you can sign in my opinion.
Agreed, especially in a 5 round draft.
-
My first mock this year:
1. C Tyler Soderstrom Turlock HS
2. LHP Jake Eder Vanderbilt
3. RHP Ben Hernandez De La Salle (IL)
4. OF David Calabrese St. Elizabeth (ON)
5. SS Jimmy Glowenke Dallas Baptist

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.
Yeah, I agree with you. I think there will be better options than him at 11.
-
I really think this kid could be the sleeper at 11. Move him to 3B or a corner OF spot and let him hit.

Just like we planned it
Go with me here. How pissed would fans outside of Chicago if Hawks got hot and won the Cup lol.

Do we have a chance with Cespedas? I haven’t seen us mentioned with him but I might have missed it. And when does this all come down as in when can they sign? Thanx
Yes, we have a chance with both Cespedes and Colas.

Now that I found out that Crochet is a likely reliever, I hope that Detmers falls or they take Kjerstad.
Kjerstad. Blah. Another college outfielder? I think that's the last pick they'll go to. Kjerstad is power or he's nothing.
-
Honestly, he's most likely done. He doesn't have the stuff at AAA, so he definitely won't have it at the MLB level.
-
I do not get the Hjerstad love. His swing looks stiff and I can see a lot of swing and miss in his game at the next level. Does not project well as a CF either with average arm strength and not great speed. I see him as a LF and I'll take the Sox OF prospects in the system over him.
If he was a HSer, maybe, but major pass as a 21 year old turning 22 in February with one loud tool (power).

At 11 pick Detmers, Crochet, or Kjerstad and I'd be happy . Like?
Detmers will be gone. Kjerstad, another college outfielder? Why? I could see Crochet, but he is a massive risk/reward type player.
I really think Sox go HS with Ed Howard or Jared Kelley
-
Illinois landed a wing in Luke Goode. Kid is a sharp shooter. Looks like Kofi is going to come back.
Other 2021 guys they are strong with are Weston, Etienne, and Nesbitt
-
I'm with James here. No way I see the Sox taking a college hitter this year. Jared Kelly or Ed Howard are my top two choices at 11 assuming no one falls.
I wonder now that Howard is projecting to go lower that they can under slot him in the first round and push another HS talent back to 49 and over slot there. It'll be a very interesting draft this year imo.
In regards to college pitching, I do like Crochet, but like many of you I do have concerns. I really think going prep is the way to go this year.

Murphy has turned into a fairly serviceable guy, thought he was having a decent season. (Agreeing with you, ha).
Hawks still need a lot of work, but hopefully the upcoming core can start to provide a foundation for the future.
I'm a big fan of Murphy. He'll be that veteran too on the backhand after Keith. He could be one half of a defensive line like back in the day with Hammer and Oduya.
Thanks for agreeing with me, Tony
-
Right side of the Hawks will be set for the next few years. Bovqist, Mitchell, and Murphy.

I get the show today

Do you think this increases the chances of the Sox getting either Colas or Cespedes?
Not increase the chances, but they probably value and prioritize those two more
-
Sounds like Kenny Atkinson could be a candidate if Bulls let go of Boylen. I'd like that.

Holy fucking shit
Lol 15 ABs into Spring Training and it's March 9th. Woof.

That Illinois/Iowa game was very intense. I came out sweating after watching it. Really good win for Illinois and they earn that double bye!

They are strong at catcher without him. He is now a back up. I could see a point if you wanted to DH him against LHP, but with EE and Abreu, are you going to sit one of those guys against lefties for James McCann? Name me the last back up catcher who was the difference between their team being a playoff team and missing out? McCann, unless he is horrible this year won’t be back for 2021 anyway. He will look for a place to be the starting catcher. The Sox gave Grandal a boatload of money. He is going to get a heavy load of starts. The back up catcher isn’t a huge role right now like it was in the past when the Sox had no elite catchers.
David Ross.
Real talk though lol, I agree. Trade him and keep Collins on the 26 man please.
-
Albright is tweeting Bears interested in Carr too. There's definitely smoke and I love it. Give me Carr.

I'm totally ok with Vaughn being Freddie Freeman
If Vaughn is Freddie Freeman, we have a superstar on our hands.

What a game. They win two more games and they should be a lock for the tournament.

I didn't even realize Strome was a healthy scratch yesterday lol. Hawks are so not back.

If Detmers is there, Sox will pick him I think.
If none of the college pitchers are there, I think Sox take Soderstrom.
