I'm gonna guess a couple HS kids for over slot.

how much underslot do you think all three picks day one will go?

Well Collins agreement is supposedly slot value, so i'll say not much.

 

Hansen seems the most likely to take under slot.

White Sox select

 

OF Alex Call, Ball State University, @ACAD_27

Edited by ChiliIrishHammock24

Alex Call, Ball State OF. Not on the top 200 for MLB

266 on BA's board.

PS: I WENT TO BALL STATE!!! I'm freaking out a bit right now.

#WhiteSox take take Alex Call. Really interesting toolsy college player. Loud bat, good runner and athlete. Can play different OF spots

Of course, he is the first guy drafted that MLB doesn't have an immediate scouting report on.

Now this sounds like an underslot signing.

Has to be an underslot

Yes, the probably are not getting any of the first three guys at a much of discount, so they need to save a little money here. Sounds like quality org depth.

Looks like he improved each year and k pretty much = walks. k=w not typical of our toolsy picks

Kyle Funkhouser's decision to turn down the Dodgers last year is looking worse and worse.

Interesting that of his 87 hits this season 43 went for extra bases. Was 17-21 on SB attempts.

 

87H 24 2B 6 3B and 13 HR.

 

with Ball, would love Funkhouser or Krook.

Sox definitely love to scout the state of Indiana. They been drafting their quite a bit the past 4 years.

Is there an active list of the players the Sox have drafted somewhere?

I was a big Krook fan to start the year. The control never came around. Wouldn't be all that different of a pick from Alec Hansen.

San Francisco have gotten themselves two steals: Reynolds in Round 2 and now Heath Quinn OF. Nice draft and they didn't have a 1st round pick.
