beautox Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 If they can round off the first ten rounds of the draft off with Bartnicki or Garrett McDaniels. That would would be awesome. So far really like the approach, really like the prep picks even though they're incredibly raw. I'm a fan of the Perez pick as well if we can get another Fry or Bummer that'd be great value for an 8th round pick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmags Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 Interesting Montas de Oca hasn't been drafted. I wonder how much over 100k he'll get (if any) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The minor league system needs an infusion of young talent that won't be ready until the middle to end of the current contention window, so that hopefully, they can extend that contention window. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still throws hard, but a much bigger wildcard than he was in HS even with the TJ. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Him not being drafted yet makes me think he's asking too much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dam8610 Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 (edited) C Gunnar Troutwine from Wichita State. They must've really scouted Bohm heavily, that's the second Wichita State player they've taken. I did watch some highlights of Wichita State in the leadup to the draft, his name came up a lot for crucial hits and XBHs.

ChiliIrishHammock24 Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 (edited) Sox finally take a catcher. Was wondering when they were finally going to pop one. I was expecting a HS catcher. We also took their #1 SP too. Edited June 5, 2018 by ChiliIrishHammock24 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
