hi8is Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 Burger was par for my personal order though I slightly preferred White. All in all I'm happy with it and hope he works out. It wasn't too long ago that Burger was looked at as a top of the class pick, about this time last year. He's got a lot to like Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the Sox win 71-73 games, they have a shot at Beer. Don't assume he's definitely going top 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoxAce Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 12, 2017 -> 07:46 PM) I still think he looks like Josh Fields Fields was a better hitter in college actually average wise. Burger has shown more power and a lower K rate than Fields. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soxfan49 Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 Hostetler just got asked about trading picks, similar to what I asked in another thread. He said it's coming in the next CBA or two but he's not thrilled about it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eminor3rd Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 (edited) Underslot only makes sense if there's some crazy deal to be had. No one you're getting at 49 is going to be worth passing on a first-half 1st round talent. And if the draft is this weak, what are you excited for in rounds 3-8? I just can't imagine picking Burger over White. Edited June 13, 2017 by Eminor3rd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rodh Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 I like this pick more than Collins last year. I stated in an off season thread why I did not like Collins (related to his College stats) and his performance this year bears that out. At least with Burger it is hopeful he will not have swing and miss issues and he has the power to be a mlb regular. IMO his defensive issues are no worse than those being stated for Collins last year and working with professional trainers hopefully he can transform his body as I believe I read Collins did this year.
