averaging those projections out to 101... thats a net loss of 24 !!! OMG Sox WTF are you doing! GTFO!

 

Clearly they think they are going to need to sign their #3 draft pick underslot to be able to pay for the first two.

Completely understandable, although I would loved the guy from SDSU that the Twins took. That bullpen might be good quite quickly.

Slight overdraft, might sign for a little under, which you will likely see a number of today for the Sox.

 

 

Isn't he a senior? He'll sign, no problem.

Could they just skip the 3rd round and use that $$ elsewhere??? :P

 

Looks like a nice pick regardless.

 

Imagine the Sox with a rotation in 2016 of all lefties.

Rodon on his interactions with CWS this past year: "Most interactions are on TV and watching Jose Abreu hit some bombs. That’s about it."

 

Scott Merkin @scottmerkin · 7m

More Rodon: "I got picked by a great club, a lot of history. I'm looking forward to it."

 

Scott Merkin @scottmerkin · 7m

Rodon on disappointment of not being No. 1: "I wouldn’t say disappointment. I would say motivation."

Sox do need lefties in the system, even if relievers. I like it.

 

This is the plan: Sox are stockpiling every single left-handed pitcher. Then, all the good left-handed hitters will flock to them so that they'll never have to face all those pitchers. Profit.

Okay. I thought he missed his junior year with TJ.

Carlos Rodon's knowledge of current #WhiteSox roster was impressive -- mentioned Abreu, Eaton, Sale, Quintana, Flowers.

Frys stats were pretty beastly looking at them. 11-2, 1.80 ERA, .94 WHIP, 98 Ks to 30bbs

Fry hit 4 batters in his last start for OSU :lol:

Dude threw a no hitter against Northern Illinois...Not sure if NIU is any good though.

Probably because his girlfriend is a big baseball fan, and her favorite team appears to be the White Sox. I'm sure he's watched some games with her.

Just to keep things in perspective, since 2001, prior to today, 4 of the White Sox 14 3rd round picks made it to the major leagues, and they have a combined WAR of 1.2. 1.1 of that is Addison Reed. So really, we are looking at lottery tickets from here on out.

Is it possible she just retweeted a bunch of Sox tweets last night, and they retroactively got inserted into her timeline?

They are bad lol. My freshmen year, only 4 years ago, I was at Aurora University (DIII school) beat NIU in 11 innings lol

98 K's in 120 IP definitely not beastly. The rest is good though.

Tommy John surgery already for Fry

 

And there is your underslot signing #1.

Retweets are shown at the time of the retweet, not the time of the tweet

Her daddy pitched in the minors in the 80's

Reetz to Nationals

Reetz finally taken at 93
