Ya sorry my sarcasm gauge just broke this morning lol.

I feel like 'JJ's have high MLB success.

 

He was ahead of Reetz at some publications

Five picks away from Sox 6RD pick.

 

2:30

Is it just me or does anyone else get a mental picture of Q-tips & ear cleaning/ear infections when thinking of the name "Schwarber." I dunno, just makes me want to clean the s*** out of my ears.

Beede getting rocked lol. Vandy was up 10-0 and now its 10-6.

Round 6 White Sox select CF Louie Lechich San Diego

#284 on BA, not ranked on scout.com, toolsy

And we got our first 'all name' selection. CF Louie Lechich.

Dang, we are getting to the players with no write-ups.

This is our underslot savings, as he is a college senior.

Toolsy outfielder you say? Poor guy is guaranteed not to make it in our system.

Cubs get Cease. Finally going to start using some of that saved money.

Hit .342 with 7 HR and 46 RBIs 21BB 29 K

Cubs spending more money.

 

I love Cease. He is almost assuredly going to need TJ though.

Round 6 White Sox select CF Louie Lechich San Diego

 

Is it just me or is it apparent that the Sox are just drafting college players who will sign below slot, so they can have more to spend on Rodon and Adams?

Looks that way. But the OF throughout the system is pretty bare besides Hawkins, May and Thompson and that's a stretch.

Rodon and Adams sign 6 weeks from today or sooner? What say you?

Hahn spoke of a "robust" draft and picking better players at the beginning of every round. Well, that applied to the first two rounds, not so much the ones after, but that is totally okay. We need impact talent at the top of our farm, and a couple of these guys could have a nice ceiling if we can develop them.

 

I'm curious to know if we get aggressive at #11 or so, once all the slot bonuses are gone, and try to take someone who would benefit from pool $$$ savings should Rodon and Adams sign for below what our cap will be.

 

I think it's possible that Hahn is clearing himself a nice $$$ ceiling so he can let Rodon & Adams agents feel as though they've made gains and close a deal quicker rather than letting this thing play out too far with a hard cap. Don't want to work without any wiggle room.

Rodon and Adams sign 6 weeks from today or sooner? What say you?

Rodon sooner, Adams later. That MLB bullpen stint and potential crunch time gig is going to be too much for Rodon to pass up. Sox IMO will give him more than slot, negotiate friendly, not Marlins style, try to load him up with perks and get the deal done. Sooner he's with the Sox the better. We want to make a good impression on the kid so that he, like John Danks before him, can dump that piece of s*** before arbitration time gets close. First round pick discussions are childs play in comparison to talking with Borass about a high quality arb-eligible MLB LHSP.

NC State was loaded this year. We got two guys, Trea Turner high first rounder, there is another pitcher in there somewhere.

LET'S GO SPENCER!

I'm trying to think if I was Spencer Adams if I would take the payday, spend 3 great years of my life in buses across the minor leagues, or if I would go to college with the potential of getting a 5 million payday by waiting. Tough call.
