Rowand44 Posted June 1, 2004 Share Posted June 1, 2004 I was just reading a draft article on Whitesox.com and they said that one guy the sox might look at is Mike Ferris. He's a left handed hitting first baseman and just from looking at his stats he looks pretty darn good. I'm just wondering what some of you draft guru's think about this guy?

danman31 Posted June 1, 2004 Share Posted June 1, 2004 This is the article he is referring to. It's a pretty good read. I'm leaning towards Fields as of now, but it's hard to complain with a stud college pitcher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if they could get Howell with their compensation picks, Fields would probably be a damn good pick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cerbaho-WG Posted June 1, 2004 Share Posted June 1, 2004 Ferris has Oakland written all over him....except he's a Junior. Interesting guy, can hit the crap out of the ball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With all the picks the Sox will have, they will have the ability to pick the best player available and get good pitchers with the supplemental picks.

Palehosefan Posted June 1, 2004 Share Posted June 1, 2004 According to this he struggle big time in the MAC tourney, but he could be an interesting pick. From BA.

Yeah. I kind of worded that badly. I think the sox should definitely take best available but I do want to see them restock some arms in the system.

dasox24 Posted June 2, 2004 Share Posted June 2, 2004 I think Ferris would be a pretty good pick, especially because 1B is a position where we don't have any real prospects (except for maybe Rogowski). Of course, I know we shouldn't draft a position b/c our system is weak at that position, but I'm just saying it would be another plus to taking this guy.
