Yeah...those other RH hitters like Mays, Aaron, Hornsby, Pujols, DiMaggio couldn't hold a candle to him.

I'd take peak Frank Thomas over ever single person you listed.

DiMaggio played in an era where Frank Thomas wasnt allowed to play. So hard pass there. Aaron never peaked where Frank did. Mays all around was much better but as a hitter soley, during peak years, he was not frank.

Frank was was putting up "nintendo numbers" from 1991-97.

Frank Thomas over Willie Mays is the homer-est thing I've heard since Hawk retired.

No Wyatt and No Tommy Henry so that’s progress 

Hey, I wouldn't hate Tommy Henry in the third round.

Though after watching him yesterday I'm not sure he's got upside beyond a #4 starter. I don't really even think he'd make a particularly good reliever either.

EDIT: I'm sorry Tommy, I love you.

I am fine in the third.

Idk if I like that with our #2 pick.

 

Surely there was another pitcher in that range that didn't have an 8 MPH fastball deviation.

Yeah, was wondering about that.  Must be mechanics that the Sox think they can fix.  That is way too much variation to not be mechanics-related.
