Now there's a difference...you're saying "not giving him a shot to start is asinine"...which is something I might well agree with. But that would be an organizational choice, not reflecting on the draft pick itself. The only reason why we'd never give him a chance to start is that we went 6 deep in starters without him. At which point, we had a choice...lock him in the minors forever as the 7th starter, or put him in the pen.

June 7, 201114 yr QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 7, 2011 -> 06:01 PM) However, it's ok to hold that fluke injury against the team when evaluating their draft performance. I don't, and never had. I was ok with the Mitchell pick, and wanted him over Trout, who at the time was projected as Rowand 2.0.
June 8, 201114 yr this might have been posted already, but... Sickels: 1-47) White Sox: Keenyn Walker, OF, Central Arizona JC: Blazing speed and greatly improved hitting skills, along with a solid glove, push him to the top of the White Sox draft list. I like Walker a LOT and he was on my list of players who could go earlier than expected. He's got some risk, but the reward could be huge.
