November 12, 20187 yr I try to do this every year to show where the White Sox picks will likely be. We'll just do the first two picks for now. Bryce Harper, Dallas Keuchel, Patrick Corbin, Craig Kimbrel, Yasmani Grandal, Hyun Jin Ryu and AJ Pollock all received the qualifying offer from their clubs. Arizona is the only team that will receive a pick after round 1 for their players. Boston and Washington would receive picks after round 3. Houston and Los Angeles would receive a pick after Competitive Balance Round B. The White Sox would forfeit their 2nd rounder and the bonus pool attached to sign any FA that received a QO. 1. Baltimore 2. Kansas City 3. White Sox 4. Miami 5. Detroit 6. San Diego 7. Cincinnati 8. Texas 9. Atlanta (Comp for not signing Carter Stewart) 10. San Francisco 11. Toronto 12. Mets 13. Minnesota 14. Philadelphia 15. Angels 16. Arizona 17. Washington 18. Pittsburgh 19. St. Louis 20. Seattle 21. Atlanta 22. Tampa Bay 23. Colorado 24. Cleveland 25. Dodgers 26. Arizona (Comp for not signing Matt McLain) 27. Cubs 28. Milwaukee 29. Oakland 30. Yankees 31. Dodgers (Comp for not signing JT Ginn) 32. Houston 33. Boston 34. Arizona (Patrick Corbin Compensation) 35. Arizona (AJ Pollock Compensation) Competitive Balance Round A 36. Miami 37. Cincinnati 38. Minnesota 39. Tampa Bay 40. Milwaukee 41. Oakland Round 2 42. Baltimore 43. Kansas City 44. White Sox

Any chance these things change in the next contract between players and owners ?

That kind of sucks. Any chance these things change in the next contract between players and owners ? I doubt it. This is why I've preached that the White Sox need to spend a shitload of money. They aren't afforded the same opportunities as these small market teams. Arizona receives their own first rounder plus a compensation pick for not signing last year's first rounder. THey'll lose two free agents and get picks after round 1. If the Sox were to lose two similar free agents, they would receive compensation after Competitive Balance Round B. It's a definite disadvantage but the Sox have more financial might than Arizona does and they need to act accordingly.

So the bigger market teams get a worse compensation pick when they lose a free agent? I didn't know that. That is pretty crappy.

Yes they do. Small market clubs that offer a QO receive a pick after the first round. Large market clubs receive a pick after Competitive Balance Round B. Clubs over the luxury tax only receive a pick after round 3

I kind of wish these comp picks were based on like a "Last 5 years attendance". Because while teams can certainly tank for draft picks, they aren't going to want to sabotage attendance for draft picks, as that immediately affects their bottom line.

UPDATES: Corbin to Washington (AZ receives compensation), Grandal to Brewers (Dodgers receive compensation), Pollock to Dodgers (AZ receives compensation). Harper, Kimbrel and Keuchel remain unsigned but none of the 3 will affect the Sox's top picks. 1. Baltimore 2. Kansas City 3. White Sox 4. Miami 5. Detroit 6. San Diego 7. Cincinnati 8. Texas 9.
