June 10, 200916 yr Is there a list of White Sox draft picks? I tried to bring up the MLB.com draft tracker, but you couldnt sort by team picks, only by player
June 10, 200916 yr QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Jun 10, 2009 -> 01:55 PM) I'd like to see a couple more high-upside arms on our board. Me too, I'm really hoping for Keyvius Sampson who I like a lot, 95-96mph fastball, hammer curve, improving change and he's a great athlete.

June 10, 200916 yr QUOTE (Ozzie Ball @ Jun 10, 2009 -> 09:35 AM) Me too, I'm really hoping for Keyvius Sampson who I like a lot, 95-96mph fastball, hammer curve, improving change and he's a great athlete. If we could get Sampson, Schuster and another catcher like Seastrunk or Bailey, i'd call this a nice draft for the White sox.
June 10, 200916 yr A friend of mine is defending the Mitchell selection by comparing Mitchell's #s at age 20 to Beckham's. At 20, Beckham put up worse stats than JM. Give me some reasons to debunk this. Quality of competition/pitching faced? and K #s obviously Edited June 10, 200916 yr by Princess Dye

June 10, 200916 yr Thread title needs to be edited - round 4-30 go today. And tomorrow is 31-50 IIRC. If Stassi is still available for us in the 4th or 5th, I wouldn't mind going after him. If he's not, I like the Bailey and Seastrunk suggestions. I also like the idea of us grabbing more high-upside arms. Edited June 10, 200916 yr by jenks45monster
June 10, 200916 yr QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Jun 10, 2009 -> 10:56 AM) Sam Dyson is still out there right? Yes. Oakland just nabbed Stassi by the way.
June 10, 200916 yr In the 4th round, the Sox go with Matthew Heidenreich, RHP, Temescal Canyon HS (CA)
June 10, 200916 yr QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Jun 10, 2009 -> 11:08 AM) Tampa gets Bailey. SD gets Sampson. f***!
June 10, 200916 yr http://www.baseballamerica.com/today/draft...009/268323.html First round recap from BA.
June 10, 200916 yr Madison Youginer is still out there... another high upside HS arm. Hopefully the Sox can nab him in the 5th

June 10, 200916 yr Video of Matt Heidenrech. http://mlb.mlb.com/media/video.jsp?topic_i...tent_id=4674627 Giants with a great pick in Brandon Belt.

June 10, 200916 yr Next pick in: KYLE BELLAMY, RHP, MIAMI Bellamy was a first-team all-conference choice in the Atlantic Coast Conference and was a key reason that Miami—unranked in the preseason—overachieved and finished in the ACC's top five teams. The Hurricanes have a long history of tremendous relievers, dating back to the Ron Fraser era (Rick Raether was the MOP of the 1985 College World Series) and enhanced during Jim Morris' Miami tenure, from Danny Graves and Jay Tessmer to George Huguet and 2008 first-rounder Carlos Gutierrez. Bellamy could work out better than Tessmer and Huguet thanks to a heavy, sinking fastball that is his trademark. When he's fresh, Bellamy works at 88-91 mph; he loses velocity when he works on back-to-back days, sometimes dipping into the 84-87 range. Bellamy's success as a pro will hinge on improved fastball command and improved consistency with his frisbee slider, which lacks depth and power. -BA Edited June 10, 200916 yr by Ozzie Ball
June 10, 200916 yr U of I SS Brandon Wikoff was just selected by the Astros. The kid is a good baseball player.
June 10, 200916 yr QUOTE (Ozzie Ball @ Jun 10, 2009 -> 09:13 AM) I can't find anything on Heidenreich, anyone else having any luck? http://mlb.mlb.com/media/video.jsp?content_id=4674627 Wrong high school down, here is some video.
