I see you too are having difficulty balancing threads.

I listened to Shirley on the broadcast last night, and he telegraphed Roch and Thome.

Is this a gamethread infiltration?

Welp I guess we HAD to take Thome 34 to get him and hopefully we have someone like Slightom, Lowarence, or Carlson pushed down to 41.

I don’t think Burmila will go this high with the injury / medicals.

So did everyone the entire draft cycle.

Love this pick for Philly.

Oops

Man, I hope Landon Thome can be our new Jacob Gonzalez. Lol. What an interesting trade on a few different organizational levels. I wonder if JR had something to do with the pick, and Getz wanted somebody with the 2nd round pick. It will be interesting to see who that draft pick will be.

However, its not like Landon Thome was some exception reach. I think MLB had him as the 34th player on their board and Fangraphs had him at like early 50s. Law also said in his chat that Thome was worthy of the 34th pick and he is the first one to point out flaws in the White Sox draft strategy in the past.

If Thome's son signs for alot less than we realize, then I'll love this. Otherwise, meh.

Not Rich near the end.

I pray that Thome is underslot. I like the kid, but don’t love the idea of giving him a $2.9M bonus. I view him as a lesser prospect than Fauske and especially Bonemer when they were drafted.

Plus he has me nervous about the game that I have not been following since the 5th inning

Thome with next pick would of been better and he better be under slot.

Yes he did

Wonder if we at some point go the the UCLA well and bring in some of Roch’s teammates… the third base kid with pop, their closer, etc.

I'm glad they picked Cholowsky. Need somebody to replace Colson when he inevitably flames out.

Get the f*** out of my thread.

Reddemann at 41 would be a nice consolation. Get Roch his college buddy

Lol Doyle.

He could still be under slot, but it’s less likely at #34 vs. #41

Yes, they did want Thome’s kid that bad.
