BlackSox13 Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 Seeing as how there's usually a shake up from the predicted mock drafts, I'm going with this... 1- Rodon- Houston 2- Jackson- Miami 3- Aiken- Sox 4- Nola- Cubs 5- Kolek- Twins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GGajewski18 Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 QUOTE (robinventura23 @ Jun 4, 2014 -> 10:54 AM) After they grab one of the top pitchers, whoever it might be, I hope they stock up on OF or Cs. First 5 rounds I think will be all pitching in my opinion.

Melissa1334 Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 QUOTE (raBBit @ Jun 4, 2014 -> 11:13 AM) We end up with either Rodon or Kolek in my mind. My trust in the White Sox front office tells me we take Rodon if he's available. This. Not saying he knows anything but stone just said he really thinks Aiken goes one. I think there's a good chance too about Jackson going to the marlins as has been said becuase although jofer/Rodon is nice , they have pitching , they need more bats especially since Stanton will be gone sooner or later.

GoGoSox2k2 Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 really hoping and thinking it will be Kolek. all the rumors linking us to Kolek the last week or so, what benefit would that give if he was really the guy in negotiations?? i just can not see Rick passing on Rodon, he has raved about him for months as has Doug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackSox13 Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Jun 4, 2014 -> 11:22 AM) This is how I think its going to go too. I just feel if theres going to be a surprise, it will come from Houston. With so many players capable of going #1, Houston could end up making people scratch their heads, if they drafted outside of what is currently being predicted (Aiken #1).

maggsmaggs Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 I'll take a stab: 1. Houston = Aiken (Shop around for the best offer, but end up taking the best prospect for a slightly under-slot amount) 2. Miami = Rodon (Most ML-ready pitcher worthy of being picked this high and the Cuban connection will have ownership support) 3. Sox = Kolek (Simply take the remaining pitcher of the Big Three) 4. Cubs = Pentecost (It may be Conforto from OSU, but Pentecost gives the Cubs a legit catcher who will sign a drastically under-slot deal to free up money to go after pitchers later in the Draft) 5. Minnesota = Gordon (They vacillate on Nola because he fits a need and their mold of that need, but too much linking them with Gordon) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harfman77 Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 It would be very Jeff Lunhow to take Jackson at #1 and give him the same underslot deal he had with the Marlins. Just sayin. He walks out with the consensus best HS position player and adds slot flexibility later in the draft. I feel Aiken is too much of a sure thing that it won't happen.

Odds are that it is true, but, it really doesn't mean anything. A lot of teams will negotiate with multiple players and have preliminary deals in place and will select the player/deal combination they like the best on draft night. So while Jackson may have the details of a deal ironed out, the Marlins are in no way a lock to draft him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
