Sox Draft Carlos Rodon> Draft Day Discussion Thread

Is there any chance Rodon doesn't sign with us?

None he has nothing to gain by going back to school. It may take some time but he will sign.

Yeah after this draft and the international signing period the Sox have a strong chance of easily having a 15 farm system, maybe even top ten.

Top 10 is definitely a stretch.

QUOTE (Joshua Strong @ Jun 5, 2014 -> 08:45 PM)
We all agree that Rodon is the top prospect in the system, assuming that he signs?

Pfft, Matt Davidson is hitting 180 points higher than him this season

On a side note I really hope the 2nd round flies to the Sox pick cause I want to watch the basketball game.

So which super toolsy raw athlete do the Rangers take?

 

I'll guess Monte Harrison.

I hope the Spurs don't choke

Man, we could get a choice of Gatewood, Gettys, Reetz, Davidson, or Burdi. I'd take any of those guys.

Remember, signability needs to be taken into consideration with the Rodon selection. Not likely the Sox can go significantly overslot.

I would be scared to take Gatewood. He has no hit tool.

With the lack of college hitters in this class, kind of surprised Derek Fisher is still available.

You gotta be kidding. Other teams are drafting, too, you know. Geez, we are 40 or so under .500 in minors this year.

Perfect reason to draft Matt Tellor! lol

It will be in early 20's at best.

Cardinals take Flaherty

He be expensive.

Fisher, Burdi or Reed would be great value picks, IMO

Flaherty gone to Cards. Theo & Jed are so pi$$ed right now.

1 minute between picks now, nice
