Holy slugging percentage. Here’s Lebron anyway 

 

 

If Roch falls off, Lebron feels like the natural next choice.

But if Roch performs up to expectations, I hope the Sox don't overthink this like the Astros and Marlins did with Rodon.

Not to mention the less separation there is between the players, the most chance of negotiating some savings and pushing it out to multiple picks over the draft.  You obviously take "your guy", but if you can save a couple of million in the process, that is an extra 2nd round pick's worth of money.  It could allow you to push a pick in the 20's down to the 2nd round, and it could still leave you enough extra money from other savings to add another HS pick at the end of the draft or after round 11.

This is where I'm at. I hope Lebron and Emerson put themselves firmly into the conversation. Leverage and options are valuable.
