June 5, 20187 yr Nice resource of day 2 names available for free here: https://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/day-one-draft-recap/ (end of recap)
June 5, 20187 yr I would love to know how close to slot values that we are with Madrigal and Walker to have a better idea on if we can go HS here or not.

June 5, 20187 yr I'd be shocked if Madrigal was less than slot, and just judging by previous drafts, I doubt Walker was cheaper.
June 5, 20187 yr Looking at it a bit more in depth, The #81 pick is worth $726,700. We have $1,556,100 from #46 and $6,411,400 from #4. If we could scrape up say a million, or even half a million, plus what we will save with seniors in rounds 7-10, we could maybe turn that into $1.5 to 2.0 million for the 3rd round pick.
June 5, 20187 yr I completely understand if the Sox pass on Wilcox, Rocker or De Sedas, but man those names are tempting as third rounders.

I think Wilcox and Rocker already put out social media posts saying they are going to college, so they would probably be extremely difficult, if not impossible, to sign now.

June 5, 20187 yr 1 hour ago, TomPickle said: I figured as much because I read that Madrigal didn't go to the Phillies was because he wasn't willing to cut a deal and sign below slot.

June 5, 20187 yr Just now, Joshua Strong said: Really think John Rocker would consummate outside his race? Lol.
June 5, 20187 yr Just now, Joshua Strong said: Really think John Rocker would consummate outside his race? Good point didn’t really think about that..
