June 8, 201312 yr I don't know how the Red Sox are going to pay for all these guys. Of the 22 rounds today, I would say 17 or 18 of their picks are HS players with scouting videos and bios. That's pretty insane.

June 8, 201312 yr Octavio Rodriguez, LHP, Franklin HS, HS, 6'04" 185lbs DOB: 04/04/95 @tavs27 "As a 6-foot-4, 205-pound lefty, Rodriguez has the prototypical pitcher's build. He can already hit 93 mph with his fastball and should see an increase in velocity once he fills out. His changeup and curve could also be above-average in the future. He is still somewhat raw, however, and needs to show better command of each of his pitches. Rodriguez is committed to Oklahoma and is considered a very tough sign. If he goes on to college, he has the potential to be a first-round pick in three years." Scouting video - http://wapc.mlb.com/play/?topic_id=4039549...ent_id=27714739 This appears to be where we will put a lot of our money saved from the last 15-20 straight college players we have drafted.

We won't sign him unless someone in the top 10 surprises and won't sign, but at this point, you keep him away from other teams and start getting to know his family and such if you want to draft him in a couple years.
June 8, 201312 yr Octavio just favorited my tweet welcoming him to White Sox Nation and telling him about the amazing chance to work w/ the best pitching coach in baseball. Clearly I've swayed him. EDIT: And now a retweet. Hook. Line. Sinker. Edited June 8, 201312 yr by Chilihead90

June 8, 201312 yr Astros just drafted Kacy Clemens, Roger's son. 0% chance of signing him this late in the draft though.

June 8, 201312 yr QUOTE (bbilek1 @ Jun 8, 2013 -> 06:41 PM) Does he project that well? I played against him years ago, while I am sure he has improved, I wasn't very impressed by the 14 year old version of him. lol At least according to the mlb.com bio for him, they said if he isn't drafted in the first few rounds, he wouldn't be signing. Round 32 or whatever is a long way away from first few. lol.

June 8, 201312 yr Our boy SS/2B Christian Stringer hit a HR in the 5th inning for Rice to tie the game, and then hit a double in the 9th to give Rice the 3-2 lead. Too bad I stopped watching in the 4th.
