In regard to 1.1, all three would/will be underslot, it's just a matter of how much under they'll come in at. The Pirates supposedly have their comp pick available for some immediate help (believe I saw that they wanted bullpen help), but not sure if the Soxline up with them in that regard.

Joe Rock and Tyler Davis are just that lefty-righty combo that pushes a team through the dog days.

Nope Emercrap is hitless against college pitching, Rochmyjock has 224 hits

I would rather take Roch over Emerson, but your reasoning is pretty poor.

Yankees scout Greenwade returned in 1949, after Mickey Mantle's high school graduation, to sign Mantle to a minor league contract with the Yankees at $140 per month (equivalent to $1,900 in 2025), with a $1,500 signing bonus (equivalent to $20,300 in 2025).^[8]

It’s gonna suck if they take the wrong guy. I honestly don’t see the Sox taking Emerson over Roch with where the team is currently at, but Lackey being a better player than Roch would be brutal.
