GLOAD is GOD Posted July 4, 2009 Share Posted July 4, 2009 Anyword on Jared Mitchell signing, and where would he start? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted July 5, 2009 Share Posted July 5, 2009 LSU's coach is even quoted as saying he doesn't expect Mitchell back in school. I have not heard anything about where they expect him to land after he signs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maggsmaggs Posted July 5, 2009 Share Posted July 5, 2009 The Sox took awhile with Beckham, too. My guess Mitchell signs a week before the Aug. 15 deadline. He will probably start in Kanny just like Gordon did. They probably want to give the kid a break after non-stop sporting activity this year (from football to baseball, how many days off has he actually had?)

Mitchell even had a quote someone posted on the board that winning the WS and MOP were a great way to end his career, so it sounds like he intends to sign Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danman31 Posted July 5, 2009 Share Posted July 5, 2009 Most guys go to indy ball (though that's usually for pitchers) if they don't sign as a 1st-round junior though. His LSU career is almost certainly over, but that doesn't always mean a guy will sign. That said, I'm not worried about Mitchell at all. I'm just saying.

flavum Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 Mitchell is at the Cell. Not signed, but they're in talks and he's meeting with the media. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huge hat tip to the Sox org for addressing the farm system the last year or so. It was such a black hole, now there's real promise coming through.

BigSqwert Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 Hopefully when he eventually plays for us in the bigs they'll play a sample of the annoying radio jingle "That's Jared!" whenever he steals or hits a triple. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThunderBolt Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 (edited) I expect to see some very good things from Jared Mitchell over the next couple of years. I can see it now....Three years from now, Hawk. "Little Carlos Gomez at the plate, Hell of a player, right there, hits the ball sharply to right field, sinking, uh-oh HE WENT TO JARED!!!! YES!

Palehosefan Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 BaseballAmerica is showing 1.2M for Jared, which is nicely under slot by 60k. 858,600 for Phegley. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
