Timmy U

5/10 either 1b or 2b profiles. (Tommy Tanks is no 3b) Not the strongest draft, but Sox should get a solid player. It's hilarious that our two worst draft positions in a long while have given us players with the most upside (Schultz & Montgomery). Even picking first, Sox would be hard-pressed to get a player like either of those guys.

Isn’t Keppinger the worst FA signing in Sox history?

I am going the 20th. Chance to see some real bad baseball from two disappointing teams.

I think if they tear it down to the studs, Andrus and Grandal should both be released. They've got to gut that toxic clubhouse and give playing time to folks who may be here moving forward.

Wolkow being 17 makes for an interesting case study. A lot of orgs struggle developing younger guys, which explains why the draft keeps getting more college heavy. I wonder if, as the minor leagues shrink, you may see a system develops similar to hockey in which you draft guys but the play 2-3 years in college anyway OR if baseball takes a page from soccer and starts fielding teams that are all 19U. Complex leagues can be useful, but I think nothing helps development more than actual competition and the minors don't really provide that.

He really does not strike out that much -- 72 ab 18bb 8K. That's like a 9% K rate. I wonder if that will translate in the US.

Anyone else concerned that in their meeting with him, according to Gonzalez, the Sox broke down his weird-ass swing on video? Did they draft a bat-first player at 15 so they can completely retool his admittedly unorthodox swing?

If Gonzalez is truly a 30 runner, he very well may end up at 1b/DH. That is, if he can hit.

Is Gonzalez really better than Sosa or Rodriguez? If not, slot him into the latter half of their Top Ten. Taylor... geez, reliever risk coming back from TJS without a defined off-speed pitch, you can't have him ahead of chultz, Mena, Cannon, McDougal, or Pallette. He's got to be around Thompson or the somewhat resurgent Kelley. Maybe the 15th best player in a weak system? I just don't see the upside with either of these guys.

Pallette part 2.

Wow. Detroit gets Clark and McGonigle.

Yeah, pretty low for Houck.

Emerson, Farmelo, Peete... Mariners got a haul.

Brice Matthews an interesting pick for Houston. Maybe a reach but great athlete.

Aiden Miller to Phils. Nice pick.

Blue Jays grab Nimmala.

Taylor probably sticks at 3rd. Surprised he went after Wilken.

Hate the Brock Wilken pick for the Brewers. R/R 1st baseman. Hey, at least they didn't pick him 1-3.

Bradfield to the Orioles. Watch him turn into Kenny Lofton.

All the HS players refused to get signed by the Sox. "My number, um, it 2 bagillion."

Sox trying to field a team of Robert and a 30 grade runner at every other position

Fuuuuuudge.

Vaughn just as bad.

Do not be alarmed. That sound you heard is just Zach Remillard landing safely back on Earth.
