I personally would have been fine with Lackey.Not that those teams are complaining, but the Bulls may have gotten the best player in the draft because 3 teams above were thinking safe and secure. Although you can’t knock the Peterson pick whatsoever

Things can chance fast and yea you'd hate to move Vargas to 1B so early in his career but hey, we have the uber rare problem of too many good players on the South Side infield."We"?

Arraez is god-tier when it comes K/whiff rate and squaring up, and his expected batting average is really high. Chase's expected stats are all well below average.

5 hours ago5 hr Author Lombard could end up being the best player in this draft class based off tools alone. There's some work to do for sure on him though. Could be Manny Machado. Kudos to the Marlins if they get there.

5 hours ago5 hr Let’s assume $1.3M savings with Roch. We have $1M from the 5% overage and roughly $0.4M of potential savings if we go seniors with our 9th & 10th round selections. That’s $2.7M of additional dollars to work with on top of slot.Here’s what I want to see with the next four picks today:01) #034 - Joey Volchko ($2.5M | -$0.4M)02) #041 - Jack Slightom ($2.3M | +$0.0M)03) #077 - Landon Thome ($2.3M | +$1.2M)04) #105 - Joseph Contreras ($2.3M | +$1.6M)Would still allow us to grab a prep in the 5th for $1M.
