I get how it works. Cholowsky is the clear #1 choice for basically everyone I talked to. Lackey has a real chance to go #2 but if the White Sox chose to not select Roch for whatever reason, it would likely be to take Emerson.

April 12Apr 12 Will Gasparino, Cashel Dugger, and Mulivai Levu (#92 prospect) each homered as part of two-hit afternoons, while Aidan Espinoza added a multi-hit performance of his own and chipped in an RBI from the designated hitter spot.Eight of nine starters recorded hits, with Roch Cholowsky, Roman Martin, Payton Brennan, and Aiden Aguayo each contributing a knock to round out UCLA's balanced offensive effort.
April 15Apr 15 Roch raised his hand sliding into second and got smoked. Shaking out his right wrist running back to dugout.
April 15Apr 15 It should be a battle between Roch and Caleb for #1 in the system. I don’t think you just hand it over to Roch in July.

Bonemer has a chance to become a top 3 prospect in the sport if he keeps this up.

Elly de la Cruz as well.something Bonemer and Roch will forever be lacking

April 17Apr 17 Caleb's at 26% K-rate. Not alarming but don't want it any higher either. I wouldn't promote him if it was any higher almost regardless of the rest of the production.
