bmags Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 Sorry for one-offs dominik 1:37 should the white sox really consider bohm? I know usually you should go BPA but the sox already have like a million corner bats in their system and really lack up the middle (middle IF, CF) talent. Kiley McDaniel 1:37 They aren't all gonna hit, trade the leftovers when you find the good ones. Pitchers will always be available in trades Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GenericUserName Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 (edited) QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Apr 11, 2018 -> 12:46 PM) Yeah, I?€™m sold now. Yeah, I'm sold on him and Swaggerty. Its weird, but I think the thing that convinced me about Swaggerty is how young he is relative to some of the other guys in this class. They also both really fit the profile from last year of more walks than strikeouts, high OBP, at least average power.

bmags Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 Swaggerty one: PTown 1:33 Is Swaggerty a better prospect coming out than Corey Ray or Adam Haseley? Kiley McDaniel 1:33 Better than Haseley, comparable to Ray but Ray had more tools and longer track record Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bmags Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 I find this exchange kinda funny: PTown 12:54 Would you be shocked if the White Sox took Bohm with the 4th pick even though they drafted Burger last year? Kiley McDaniel 12:54 Nope because that would be smart and not taking Bohm for that reason would be stupid dominik 1:37 should the white sox really consider bohm? I know usually you should go BPA but the sox already have like a million corner bats in their system and really lack up the middle (middle IF, CF) talent.

It's a reason to take McClanahan, Madrigal, or Swaggerty if you have similar grades on them. If you think Bohm is hands down BPA when you're picking, you take him, though.

Couldn't agree more. For me, it's Madrigal or Bohm right now. For some reason, Logan Gilbert just seems like type of guy the Sox would like.

Swaggery's average is still a bit concerning I'm not as concerned about Swaggety's average because its already coming back up and he is using a new swing this year, so some streakiness is probably expected. He did well with wood on Team USA during the summer, so he has a good history. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IIRC there was a segment on an MLB insider show that caught the Sox brass talking about passing on a pitcher because of his mechanics. This would have been before Giolito was drafted. For some reason it seems like they never said the name, but there were rumors as to who it was. I can't recall the name now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunt Posted April 12, 2018 Share Posted April 12, 2018 QUOTE (GenericUserName @ Apr 10, 2018 -> 08:05 AM) Full draft top 125 from 2080 baseball. They have an interesting take on Turang. Also there seems to be some consensus forming on the top tier. Great list here, if you follow me you have to read it. Spoilers but my top 2 are the same. Also 9 of the same top 10, so some consensus between us. https://t.co/3oYMHAggRX— jeff ellis (@jeffMLBdraft) April 10, 2018 This Lenny Torres Jr. kid around our second pick has some pretty electric stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One video had him striking out Turang looking and Kelenic swinging on the fastball on the outside corner. Looks like he has raw secondary pitches, but a fastball like that would be a nice get in the second. And he is basically a year younger than most of the other HS guys, so he could probably add a little more velo too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiSoxJon Posted April 13, 2018 Share Posted April 13, 2018 Really like the UCF closer Bryce Tucker as a Draft prospect https://d1baseball.com/player/A9RiaMB5/bryce-tucker/ Should go Round 2 or 3 and should may fly through the minors as a college reliever I still think CWS goes HS INF at #4 Good to see a system where they can go BPA and not position specefic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DirtySox Posted April 13, 2018 Share Posted April 13, 2018 Neil @airforceneil3 The No.3 ranked college player in college baseball, Nick Madrigal, is suited up but not playing for the Beavers Sounds like his return is imminent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted April 14, 2018 Share Posted April 14, 2018 McClanahan with a very rough start. Seems like his velocity was down. As for Bohm, he continues to rake. One thing to keep an eye on is he seems to be making a lot of errors of late. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
