White Sox 23rd rounder: Mike Marjama, C, Long Beach State. 6-2, 205 pound righty senior

Lot of picks from the Cal family of schools.

26th RD and still no HS pick? Is this real life?

White Sox 14th rounder: Mark Ginther, 3B, Oklahoma State. 6-3, 200 pound junior.

Uh-oh. From his Oklahoma State profile (note: favorite team):

 

PERSONAL: A business major ... son of Jim and Pam Ginther ... born Dec. 4, 1989 ... dad played football at Kansas State ... has an older sister, Laura ... favorite movie is American Gangster ... favorite team is the Chicago Cubs ... favorite musician is Lil' Wayne ... chose OSU because of the coaches, its location and because of the baseball history and tradition.

The fact that he likes Lil Wayne concerns me even more. This kid has no taste in rappers!

Man, they drafted heavy in California.

I thought that too....well, actually bad taste in music.

Now at 28 rounds, still no prep players. WOW.

They've gone this far, they can't take a high schooler with one of these last two picks.

 

Watch them take 20 prep players tomorrow.

Wait, what school is the 29th pick from??????

29- Dustin Hayes, CF

 

No School. 19 year old Canadian.

 

 

White Sox 28th rounder: Kyle Robinson, 1B, Arkansas. .286/.358/.507 this year for the Razorbacks.

 

We have taken Arkansas last two 1B now. (Robinson this year, Wilkins last year).

Does that count as a prep player? Or are we going from college to no education? lolz.

30- LHP Brandon Parrent, Texas A&M.

 

Sorry, Ozney. Maybe tomorrow.

So we drafted a BRANDON NIMMO CLONE!!!!

Reds just took Joe Terry in the 30th round. Sox drafted him last year pretty high.

Yeah, we selected him 8th RD, but he didn't want to sign. Whoops!

First post updated through round 30.

I wonder how it feels to have your dad and brother screw you out of draft position?

I'm sure we'll find out.

If his name was Ozney Ramirez would he have been drafted by now?

Sure. I love Alexei enough to gift draft his family members.
