So I tried doing a top 20 and realized just how much deeper this system is. I only included a few of the draft picks and I didn't know where to put Micker Adolfo. Also, I am hoping that Huascar Ynoa will be added to the list. 1. Carlos Rodon LHP 2. Tim Anderson SS 3. Micah Johnson 2B 4. Courtney Hawkins OF 5. Spencer Adams RHP 6. Matt Davidson 3B 7. Francellis Montas RHP 8. Carlos Sanchez INF 9. Trey Michalczewski 3B 10. Rangel Ravelo 1B 11. Tyler Danish RHP 12. Chris Beck RHP 13. Trayce Thompson OF 14. Jace Fry LHP 15. Jacob May OF 16. Adam Engel OF 17. Cleuelis Rondon SS 18. Andrew Mitchell RHP 19. Keon Barnum 1B 20. Brad Goldberg RHP There are some guys that I left off. I remember when it was tough to come up with 20 White Sox prospects.

QUOTE (Brian @ May 28, 2014 -> 03:25 PM) Good point. CHEF was really great. Recommend it if you need a break from monsters and superheroes. Saw Chef over the weekend. Completely agree. It was a great film. Favreau does a nice job of casting Sophia Vergera and Scarlett Johansson as his love interests as well. Good man.

Spencer Adams has front of the rotation upside.

QUOTE (Springfield SoxFan @ Jun 9, 2014 -> 07:10 AM) So what is the take on Jarvis, is he a steal for the Sox? Pitcher or hitter? He will be a middle infielder for the Sox. It seems like a pretty good get. Callis had mentioned that he liked him better as a pitcher and that he thought he was unsignable. The thing is though, the Sox wouldn't risk a 10th rounder on a guy that wouldn't sign. They would lose the slot amount for the 10th round pick and that's a chance they can't take after drafting Rodon and Adams. Supposedly, Jarvis had a workout with the White Sox last Monday and I would imagine they had an agreement. Interesting pick.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 7, 2014 -> 03:09 PM) What a waste for the Twins. I wouldn't be surprised if you saw either of the Twins draft pick relievers: Nick Burdi or Michael Cederoth in the big league bullpen this year as well.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jun 7, 2014 -> 03:24 PM) Yeah, also Mississippi high school player of the year. He had a miserable year this year but seems he was once quite the prospect. As a mentioned before, quite the nice flyer to take but he could also end up going back to school. I asked Kiley McDaniel about him on twitter. James Fox ‏@JamesFox917 9m @kileymcd Mason Robbins a worthwhile flyer this late for WhiteSox? Is he signable? Kiley McDaniel ‏@kileymcd 2m @JamesFox917 probably. 7th-10th round talent has bigger tools than that but hasn't been good last 2 years after hype out of HS.

QUOTE (scs787 @ Jun 7, 2014 -> 03:21 PM) Whoa, Mason Robbins was Kiley McDaniels(who gets a lot of play here) #6 college hitter in his May 2013 "2014 MLB Draft Preview". Here's Mason's swing in BP

The Bulls definitely have the most assets to offer. I don't think Love is the Bulls first choice though.

QUOTE (Bigsoxhurt35 @ Jun 7, 2014 -> 02:22 PM) So just briefly reading about De Oca. I'd be shocked if he signed. He'll probably go to mizzou to up his draft stock. Unless we can talk him out of it because already had TJ once. I know the Sox will probably be tapped out after Rodon and Spencer but if I'm De Oca, I don't think pitching in college is the best move with 1 TJS already under my belt. He's really going to take the chance that he will be healthy for the next 3 years, pitching for free? F that. I'd go pro.

The pitching in the system is starting to look a lot better. Rodon, Adams, and Fry are great additions to Beck, Danish, and Montas. I like it.

Braves took Providence Catholic RHP Jake Godfrey in 21st round. He will be attending LSU.

Jon Heyman ‏@JonHeymanCBS 1m Kendrys Morales reached agreement with the #Twins

I can't believe Libertyville C Evan Skoug hasn't gotten drafted. I thought he'd go pro for sure.

QUOTE (Feeky Magee @ Jun 6, 2014 -> 12:25 PM) Junior Okay. I thought he missed his junior year with TJ.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Jun 6, 2014 -> 12:21 PM) Slight overdraft, might sign for a little under, which you will likely see a number of today for the Sox. Isn't he a senior? He'll sign, no problem.

QUOTE (The Ultimate Champion @ Jun 6, 2014 -> 11:29 AM) Okay so I am confused about the bonus rules here. Someone before posted that we have to offer 90% value of a given slot or we lose the pick. 1) Is this true? 2) If so, do we *have* to offer 90% slot value to the player we select with that pick, leaving the 10% sum for overslots? 3) If the above is not true, could we theoretically offer 10% slot value to the player we select, then offer 50% of the value to our #1 and the 40% remaining to our #2? So we can go up to but not over $100K on every pick from 11 on, and we also have an overage. So theoretically if we get enough underslot guys we can take BPA at #11 and use leftover pool money plus our overage, assuming we have pool money available? No you don't have to offer within 90%. The Sox 3rd rounder is slotted at like $700k. They could easily draft a HS senior in rd 3 and pay him $100,000.00 if they wanted.

QUOTE (raBBit @ Jun 6, 2014 -> 11:28 AM) Darius Day out of Simeon as well. He's a supreme athlete. He singlehandedly beat my team when he was a freshman. Stealing bases and running all over the outfield like a gazelle. I saw Godfrey pitch against my HS team and velocity/command deteriorated after the first two innings. Just one outing but I was really underwhelmed by him. Was it this year? Godfrey had a pretty down year. He did beat Sandburg yesterday however. He used to be a Notre Dame commit and is now committed to LSU. I think he'll go pro though.

A couple local guys to keep an eye on today: Providence Catholic RHP Jake Godfrey and Libertyville C Evan Skoug.

I don't really want to see Rodon on the big league roster this year. Give him a few minor league innings at Kanny and Winston Salem. I could see him starting next year at Birmingham and moving quick though. Is that unrealistic?

QUOTE (NCsoxfan @ Jun 6, 2014 -> 10:06 AM) Thoughts on Michael Cederoth for the upcoming pick? I would be fine with it if it's cheap. Fast moving college reliever.

QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Jun 6, 2014 -> 01:29 AM) The Sox can get 3/4 Dunn's production at 1/4 the cost and maybe better production just from Viciedo. There is zero chance Dunn is back. I'm not even saying Viciedo is anything special -- thing is, neither is Adam Dunn at this point. What, his bounce back year is 230/330/500? That's simply not worth what he'll want to get paid, and that's best case scenario as far as his production. They will not get close to the number of walks Dunn takes. It's about Dunn's ability to not make outs. He typically makes less outs than most guys on the team.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Jun 5, 2014 -> 10:47 PM) I heard it was a 50% chance we sign both of them, so I didn't know how to take that. If you don't sign him, you lose the slotted amount in the pool. That would leave the Sox pretty bare. They will sign him.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Jun 5, 2014 -> 10:42 PM) But what are the chances we actually sign him? I'd be shocked if they don't sign him.

QUOTE (The Ultimate Champion @ Jun 5, 2014 -> 10:11 PM) So what are the rules after Round 10? Is it back to the Wild West like under the old CBA, draft whoever you want wherever, throw all kinds of money at them? The slots go away but are there max amounts you can offer? Any pick over $100,000.00 counts against pool. Many teams though, draft some college seniors in the top 10 rounds for really cheap so that they can overdraft after round 10 using the pool money.

Spencer Adams is a great pick at #44. WOW.
