Jace Fry is much better. Erwin is a projectable lefty. It's fine. Probably under slot.

Pitchable lefty, not projectable. Guy is a college pitcher, you can throw projectable out the window in terms of velocity. Sure it happens, but I doubt he'll go from pitching in the upper 80's and low 90's to going into the mid 90's. The key is going to be can command that fastball enough and are his secondary pitches good enough to make up for the lack of a plus fastball.

If he can get outs, I don't care how hard he throws it.

Dejong top catcher availble (if he stays there). I wanted him in round 4. McCarthy top college player available, also wanted him with the last pick. Hoping for one of these.

 

That's if we stay the college route. Don't know much about the hsers.

Dejong goes the pick before the sox. Lame

DeJong to ST. Louis.

Sorry were picking 142 not 132. My bad

Nats take Mo Rivera, Jr.

Round 5 begins...

Thanks for the video.

 

His velocity and repertoire remind me of Surkamp.

FYI when I said smells of Fry, I meant that underslot lefty with not as dominating stuff (on the surface). That's what I remember hearing a lot about Fry last year at this time.

That's kind of a sad for a 4th round pick.

I think your expectations of 4th round picks are a bit high. The White Sox have 2 4th round picks out of 50 that have put up at least a 1.0 WAR for them for their career.

I don't think Fry was an under slot signing but I get you.

Sox on the clock

Took a guy with TJS under his belt.

Sox pick Stephens, Jordan RHP Rice (TX)

We like to draft guys with no scout video on MLB

Fry was overslot and dominated a good conference. Erwin is probably underslot. They're just college lefties getting picked in semi-close. No similarities other than that in my mind.

 

Well I look dumb.

11.31 K/9 to a 2.56 BB/9 this year at Rice. Nice.

Stephens was Rice's best pitcher last year and came back from TJS. Here he is in HS:

White Sox are now 5 rounds into mlbdraft without selecting a position player. Does this increase the odds of hitting the Cuban market?
