June 5, 201213 yr Author I will be shocked if the Twins don't pick Mitch Brown right here, or at 42. Edited June 5, 201213 yr by DirtySox
June 5, 201213 yr Author QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Jun 4, 2012 -> 09:19 PM) Would Lance McCullers fall? Given we went upside, I wouldn't be opposed to taking him now. Some questions of whether he can start but he has legit stuff and at worse projects as an above average closer. I assume he'll be long gone though. Someone with multiple picks will take a chance on him. McCullers might not be signable at that point without some creative allotment. Like you suggest, a team with multiple picks and more money to throw around seems the most likely.
June 5, 201213 yr QUOTE (Heads22 @ Jun 4, 2012 -> 09:12 PM) Haha, no infatuation, just a remark about a guy that we were connected with that may drop out of the first round. I don't mean you as much as the folks that rated him so highly in the first place. QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Jun 4, 2012 -> 09:19 PM) Would Lance McCullers fall?

I assume he'll be long gone though. Someone with multiple picks will take a chance on him. I'd be interested in him, but I suppose there's the signability problem. Do we still receive the pick the next year if we don't sign a player?
June 5, 201213 yr I'd be all for Smoral but no way does he fall to the Sox. This is going to go quick (which I like).
June 5, 201213 yr QUOTE (Heads22 @ Jun 4, 2012 -> 09:31 PM) So is Karkovice announcing our comp pick? If he does it'll be bookended with a couple "ya know's "
June 5, 201213 yr I don't think McCullers gets past St. Louis (or Boston or Texas). One of those teams will draft him.
June 5, 201213 yr QUOTE (Heads22 @ Jun 4, 2012 -> 09:07 PM) Maybe Smoral will just drop to 48 That's what they may be hoping...
June 5, 201213 yr QUOTE (flavum @ Jun 4, 2012 -> 07:39 PM) Wonder if they would go with Piscotty? Stanford angle. Piscotty is a solid pick, however, don't think the Sox would take him or some better pitching prospects (which right now, it looks like such will be on the board).

June 5, 201213 yr QUOTE (bucket-of-suck @ Jun 4, 2012 -> 07:40 PM) That's what they may be hoping... Big, strong lefty. I'd love it.
June 5, 201213 yr QUOTE (Jake @ Jun 4, 2012 -> 09:37 PM) McCullers + Hawkins would make for a hell of a talented 1-2 draft punch Any relation of Lance, the former SD Padre?
June 5, 201213 yr QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 4, 2012 -> 09:42 PM) Any relation of Lance, the former SD Padre? He's Jr.
June 5, 201213 yr QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 4, 2012 -> 10:42 PM) Any relation of Lance, the former SD Padre? Yes.
