Would be awesome to see him & Frazier in the same division.

He led the nation in homers, runs, walks and slugging pct. he sucks.

 

I walked in late. Are people trying to downplay Bryant because it's the Cubs pick?

No its just Marty. It turns out while he wants to trade every White Sox worth something for prospects, he doesn't like prospects either.

Just Marty

Dozier? That's kind of a reach. Might be a quantity over quality move. Underslot, reallocation. Get some harder signs later. Time to restock due to Dayton overpaying for Shields?

Dang guys had him ranked in the 40s & he goes 8?

I said I wasn't overly impressed with the video I saw on him. Sorry.

QUOTE (Marty34 @ Jun 6, 2013 -> 06:47 PM)
If he's the best college bat available this really is a weak draft class. Mayo seems to think there's a good chance he moves to RF.

 

He led the goddamn nation in homeruns, lol.

Royals Review is going to have a field day with this one. Much depends on what they do with the savings they get from this overdraft.

As we move closer to the Sox pick, the longer Meadows is on the board the longer Dom Smith is IMO.

 

My thoughts exactly. Would love it. I'd love Smith. Chi-Chi would be alright too. Not wanting Chris Anderson who I think is the fallback option.

There goes Meadows

Isn't Keon Barnum a projected 1st baseman for us?

 

Already giving up on him for Dom?

QUOTE (bbilek1 @ Jun 6, 2013 -> 07:00 PM)
Meadows goes to PIT at 9.

 

They got to be happy.

 

Meadows and Peterson would be a great haul.

If the Royals can get Manaea or Bickford with 1st competitive balance pick, this makes sense. That's the gamble.

Barnum still hasn't even seen A-ball. He's not the caliber prospect that Smith is either. Also Smith could possible be thrown into a corner OF spot. If they think he;s the BPA, they should take him.

Not the way this works.....You take the best player available. Dominic Smith is an advanced bat for a HS player.

Gotcha. Was just curious. I was high on the Barnum pick last season, but stupid injuries.

 

My fav player is Phillip Ervin

Ervin intrigues me, but not at 17. That being said I could see the White Sox taking him. Haven't seen many linking him to us though.

Who are the top 7 still available?

Smith to Mets. Nuts.

This draft is going pretty well for the Sox, it seems. Gonzalez, Smith or Crawford should still be there, with Stanek/Shipley a possibility.

 

As for the Bryant pick, it wouldn't shock me if this was done with the idea of using Baez as the key member of a package to trade for an established #1 or 2 pitcher.

Man oh man Harold Reynolds is picking up one EASY pay check tonight.

 

 

 

 

Very disappointed to miss out on Smith.

Someone has to pop Shipley soon.
