June 9, 200916 yr Royals with a great pick. Wow, if Melville pans out too they're going to be stacked.
June 9, 200916 yr #12. Kansas City Royals - Aaron Crow, RHP, Fort Worth Cats Edited June 9, 200916 yr by jenks45monster
June 9, 200916 yr Well done Soxtalk. 3 of us predicted Crow to Royals. Kinda hurts me. He's such a stud.
June 9, 200916 yr QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 9, 2009 -> 03:54 PM) I can't see the Sox taking Scheppers or Gibson. Goes against our style. In terms of what? Gibson doesn't have high demands or anything. He's a college pitcher with a good arm. Fits right into our style. Scheppers demands haven't been ridiculous, most everyone has speculated similar to Crow's price range. Plus whoever drafts him has leverage. The injuries are a question though. Royals with a great pick.

I can't see the Sox giving 1st round money to these guys with HUGE injury concerns.

June 9, 200916 yr QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 9, 2009 -> 03:58 PM) Oakland going to take Green? Green goes here and than one of the prep Texas kids will go to the Rangers right after. Brothers might go to the Tribe right after. That would be my guess at least, but they could take a shot at Gibson, but I doubt it. I see the Tribe taking an arm though.
June 9, 200916 yr QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 9, 2009 -> 06:58 PM) Oakland going to take Green? After picking Weeks and trading for Cardenas last year?
June 9, 200916 yr Per usual, the White Sox will get the opportunity to pick up one of the best players in the draft with a low pick. But, we won't pony up the $$ to do that, per usual.
June 9, 200916 yr QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Jun 9, 2009 -> 11:59 PM) After picking Weeks and trading for Cardenas last year? Some of us know what we're talking about
June 9, 200916 yr QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ Jun 9, 2009 -> 05:58 PM) Damn. I am pissed. Can't root for him like I was going to do. I still will. The Royals are still the Royals for now. Crow was too much fun to watch in college. Of course, he's probably going to be in the Majors late next year.
June 9, 200916 yr QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 9, 2009 -> 03:59 PM) Cleveland would LOVE the chance to take Alex White. I forgot about White. He probably goes to the Tribe. Dang near a lock.
June 9, 200916 yr QUOTE (Palehosefan @ Jun 9, 2009 -> 04:00 PM) Will Texas pass up Shelby Miller for Alex White? Would be the smart choice. I don't think they do. They love the Texas kid, but they'll take Purke, imo.
June 9, 200916 yr Four position players taken in the first 13 picks in Ackley, Tate, Sanchez, and Green.
June 9, 200916 yr I don't get why people keep mentioning whether or not Crow will sign. I don't know the guy or much regarding his situation, but after you already don't sign once, you don't do it again. Unless, of course, you want to be like Matt Harrington, who is now a mechanic making little money when he had an opportunity to sign for millions. Unless Crow is a complete dumbass, he'll sign for a fair amount.
June 9, 200916 yr Great selection by the Rangers, and now as already mentioned, the Indians will probably take White.
