Y2Jimmy0 Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 Does anybody have any names that interest them for White Sox day 2? I am surprised that Oklahoma prep catcher Jon Denney is available still. I wonder if he will just go to school now. If he is signable that is the guy I want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiliIrishHammock24 Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 Hoping to see the Sox go for a 3B, 1B, SS, and HS pitchers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthSideSox72 Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 Round 3 is still too early to draft on need. Though in a relatively weak draft class, by later Top 10 rounds, it might be that time. To me, the most glaring hole in the Sox system (and it has many holes) is 3B. Morel and Grabe are the only ones in the system even worth mentioning as prospects (with Morel not even qualifying), and Grabe is fringe at best.

Noonskadoodle Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 Also like Wil Crowe a RHP in High School. Good mechanics & the ball seems to EXPLODE out of his hands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noonskadoodle Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 Could draft our future DH in ROWDY TELLEZ!!! Arguably one of the BEST POWER HITTERS in this draft. Listed at 6-4 220 but he is more like 270 haha. ROWDY ROWDY ROWDY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noonskadoodle Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 QUOTE (staxx @ Jun 7, 2013 -> 12:53 PM) that kid is massive Yea his power is off the charts. Some reports on him: Tellez is a very big, powerful first base prospect with some of the best power in his class. He’s consistently shown the ability to hit the ball out of the yard and consistently square the ball up. His swing is very smooth from the left side and he keeps the barrel in the zone for a long time. In short, he's a classic power first base prospect: the power potential is very high and he's never going to be anything more than adequate in any other aspect of the game. As can be assumed from his frame, he's not a runner and he can't handle any other position. He'll never be more than average at first, but reports indicate that he's improved his athleticism and footwork. It's scary to think about it, but Tellez played in the Area Code Games at age 17 and he's very young for his class. The power potential is very intriguing here, and this USC commit probably won't make it to campusnext fall. MLB Comparison: Kendrys Morales A true slugger, Rowdy Tellez is one of the top power bats available in the 2013 MLB Draft. Big, smooth swing Easy power Pulls the ball with authority Good approach at the plate Average defensively at first Moves well for size Average arm 7.42 recorded 60 time Very big build Work ethic is well known When you think of power-hitting first basemen who swing from the left side of the plate, you tend to think of guys like Prince Fielder, Ryan Howard and, to a somewhat lesser extent, San Diego-era Adrian Gonzalez. That's the kind of fraternity Rowdy Tellez could join somewhere down the line. Baseball America (subscription) has Tellez down as the best left-handed power bat in this year's draft class, and their reasoning doesn't require much of an explanation. Just listen to the sound of the ball coming off his bat in the video on your right. That's some raw power right there, and it's easy power, too. Tellez makes that sound without a ton of effort.
