  • I really miss Harold. Was really helpful for me and informative. I think fucking losers on this site finally chased him away. It’s a real shame if so. 

  • I'm with you. Hard to argue about a left handed hitting OF with a patient approach and some notable thump with solid tools across the board. I take this all day at 44.

  • Yea same. Imagine chasing off an insider who routinely would feed the board tidbits on draft intel, trade info, and knowledge on the inner workings of the org. Shows how shitty and petty some of

Vitello is so awesome at this

7:46    No, you can't.
7:50    So seems like their was video of Irish being drunk and saying out of pocket stuff. I don't know the nature of the language used, specifically. Should I find it and play it on my phone really loud in the draft arena?

Probably why when the Sox were about to pick, Eric said they were "negotiating". Probably didn't think Carlson would be there.

That's a family that can't wait to see him play for Ishbia at the 78!

He seemed oddly stoic.

Not at all upset with the pick, Carlson is a top 10 worthy talent. Unfortunately it’s just hard to be optimistic about this franchise developing a raw hitter. 
 

We haven’t drafted raw hitters in a while really, and where we have they have been corner profiles.

Really isn’t a profile the Sox have explored with higher picks.

My main concern is it seems like every time we draft a position guy with a no doubt plus skill like this (defense) they then get in our system and first reports are it’s not nearly as good as they thought.

He looked pretty damn smooth in those highlights they showed, and had an absolute cannon for an arm. 

Nice to see the Dodgers have two "competitive balance" picks. They sure need the help to get right.

He way he kind of made a hand gesture & looked at his phone with a smirk makes me think the Sox never called him before

Freaking Padres

Same conversation happened around Burger and his dreaded H bar style at Missouri State...although power was never his big question mark.

Could we float Summerhill to our second rounder?

Aloy's slide has to end soon right?

Jace sure doesn't feel like a Cleveland type pick.
