bmags Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 http://m.mlb.com/news/article/236343488/ml...-well-on-day-2/ In one of the bigger surprises on Day 2, Chicago was able to land Texas Christian catcher Evan Skoug (No. 48) in the seventh round. An offensive-minded backstop, Skoug overcame a dreadful start to share Big 12 Conference Player of the Year honors and lead the Horned Frogs to their fourth consecutive College World Series appearance. New Mexico outfielder Luis Gonzalez (third round, No. 106) is a gifted hitter and on-base machine. Louisville's Lincoln Henzman (fourth, No. 162), South Carolina's Tyler Johnson (fifth, No. 97) and Oklahoma's J.B. Olson (10th, unranked) are accomplished college relievers who should move quickly. Another Louisville righty, Kade McClure (sixth, unranked) could become a steady starter. You can see Twins cleaned up on Prep players. Much more possible at #1 and with a comp pick. We'll see a different draft I'm guessing with a top 3 pick (fingers crossed) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thxfrthmmrs Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 And Callis did the writeup without factoring the wildcard here, Abbott. If Abbott turns out to be as good a prospect as Sox think he could be, we could be a big Day 2 winner here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmags Posted June 14, 2017 Author Share Posted June 14, 2017 I'm excited to follow Abbott but we are talking about a big long shot. More polished HS 1b with big power like Zangari are long shots. If he makes it to the majors in any capacity that is incredible scouting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 QUOTE (2005thxfrthmmrs @ Jun 14, 2017 -> 10:23 AM) And Callis did the writeup without factoring the wildcard here, Abbott. If Abbott turns out to be as good a prospect as Sox think he could be, we could be a big Day 2 winner here. Abbott is the long game here. They are already talking about him as a two year rookie ball guy. He has a LONG road ahead of him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
