Get Rodon/Adams signed rest of draft is gravy.

Other than the few I PM'ed. This was a hard secret to keep. Jeez.

Thanks for keeping me in the loop

Idk how they're going to sign both of these guys if they are both overslot.

Where does Adams project to be in our top prospects?

 

Fighting for #2 with Anderson.

Any signability issues here?

 

UGA recruit...

 

So money will be an issue, especially as he fell almost 20 spots from where he was expected to be selected. They might really front-load almost all of their pool into the first 5-10 picks or so.

 

 

You can't put Adams ahead of Anderson and maybe even Davidson or Hawkins (yet), but he's definitely Top 4-5.

 

Probably comes in ahead of Danish and Micah Johnson.

 

 

1. Rodon

2. Anderson

3. Hawkins or Davidson

5. Adams

6. M. Johnson

7. Danish

8. Beck

 

That looks a LOT more respectable.

Ya, this is about as good of a first day as one could possibly imagine.

'13 & '14 Sox drafts should prove to be damn good.

Also, the hell are the Cubs doing? Saving more money with Stinnett obviously. Are they assuming the tough signs will be around in round 3 and on?

Depends how he performs in rookie league, but would probably be around 5.

If it takes more then do it Sox needs both to sign badly. These are 2 first round talents in a very depleted minor league system.

Get these two signed please Rick. Great first day!

Great first two picks, you can almost guarantee a college senior at 77.

Bell said they were targeting a couple pitchers they thought might fall. I'm guessing Adams was that guy.

Depends how he performs in rookie league, but would probably be around 5.

 

On another note, WTF are the Cubs doing?

He was #1 on their board. They are over the moon. I expect a deal to get done quickly.

 

Music to my ears!

And then take Tellor in round 11 for the min!!! Sounds like a great plan

At this point he's 2nd or 3rd me thinks.

bucket.. confident they can get a deal done quickly with Rodon? hopefully they can get adams signed and keep him away from going to play for Georgia

Did not expect us to pick another guy who is going to want overslot. This is amazing if we sign them both, but it makes me think we must be going way off the board in later picks.

Idk how they're going to sign both of these guys if they are both overslot.

 

They have a 15% buffer to go over their pool before they have any penalties though, right?

All hail Rick Hahn! He can now drop the mic and walk off stage. His work is done here. For today.

I never thought Adams would be there in the 2 round ..... I like it.... how is he compare to sean foley?

Not loving the delivery from #whitesox pick Spencer Adams based on http://mlb.com video #MLBDraft

Thank goodness we are not Scrub fans they are drafting like KW used too.

There goes Reid-Foley

Yeah, they may have to reach big time from here on out though. The pool drops off really fast.
