Just gonna leave this here. I heard the target is a college arm with the ability to throw 100mph. |

I'm just glad to be able to trust the front office with the pick. |

EIU has a guy projected to go in the first round. That is surprising. |

Good thing we are not the Pirates. That is a good pick, but not a great one. |

If Kevin Kopps is available at 22, the Sox have to take him. I saw him pitch multiple times in person this year. Kid can deal and may fall to us simply because he is 24. If the Sox drafted him, he would be the type of guy who could come in this very year as Crochet did last year. |

I really don't understand what the Royals were thinking at 7 with the high school kid from Connecticut. I have to think he would have still been available with their second pick. They must be planning on saving money and going overslot for some guys in the later rounds. |

I hope he sticks at SS, but with his size it screams 3B. |

Can we conclude that KW sucked at drafting players? It seemed like just about all of his 1st round picks (except for Sale) missed. I guess Gio had a good career as well, but it wasn't for us. The turnaround in drafting and developing these guys started with Hahn. |

Nah, people were appalled by the Rick Hahn drafts. It was a non-stop bone of contention for years, reaching its nadir after the Jake Burger achilles injury. As if the White Sox could've possibly known Jake Burger would miss three seasons to freak injuries. Even then, it was only a few months ago you could find MANY who would say the Sox draft history was a "fireable offense". But now its all hunky dory because Carlos Rodon is light-favorite for the AL Cy Young and here's Jake Burger, Gavin Sheets and Zack Collins contributing to a first place team. It has gone from abysmal to outstanding in less than two-hundred days. |

What are the odds that the A’s would draft another player named Max Muncy, who is no relation to the one they drafted in 2012, yet has the same birthday? |
