That’s because every player on mlb pipeline is a 55 overall and not too hot or cold. It’s the great hedge site. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted July 10, 2023 Share Posted July 10, 2023 Leave it for the White Sox to pick the guy whose game is more suited for the steroids era than the one based on speed and athleticism, even at corner positions now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what I mean by instinct. Anderson is the epitome of speed meaning nothing. Not sure I like the pick but he's not a Lance Broadway pick.

TomPickle Posted July 10, 2023 Share Posted July 10, 2023 I know absolutely nothing about him other than I hate the look of his swing. On aesthetics alone this is a failed pick. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He really wanted to go to a certain school so he contacted the coach and asked if he'd come out and see him play. The coach did and told him he was going to pass because he wasn't good enough to play there. So Emerson went home and built a batting cage in his garage and then bought a fathead of the coach and hung it in back of the cage so he could hit line drives off his face all day. That's the kind of dawg I can respect. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DirtySox Posted July 10, 2023 Share Posted July 10, 2023 (edited) Okay. I've made it through all the stages of White Sox draft pick grief. I'm fine with the selection I guess. It's not particularly sexy or exciting but could be fine value at 15. Glad it wasn't Waldrep or Yohandy. Rooting for the kid. Let's get it.

Teams like the Reds with McClain (de la Cruz) and Padres (Bogaerts and Kim vs. Tatis in RF) are so stacked they can play dominant athletes on the corners. Whereas the White Sox roster is filled with DHs and players with below average speed across the board with the singular exception of Luis Robert (and maybe Colas if he can hit well enough to hold down a position.)

The last two picks give me hope at least, as their performances have been fantastic this year. And lets be real, our major concern with all of this is (gestures broadly) the White Sox organization 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hahn should be in the unemployment line not making draft picks. This organization is a joke. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
