Allan Simpson on Sox draft

I found this from a chat about the draft on BA today:

 

"Q: John Schneider from Chicago, Illinois asks:

How do you think the White Sox did with their 6 picks in the first two rounds?

 

A: Allan Simpson: Potentially, very good. They got one of the best hitters in the draft with their first pick, Josh Fields, then got four quality lefthanders with their next five picks. I think a lot will ride on UCLA LHP Wes Whisler, and how he takes to pitching once he gives up hitting. He didn't have a good year this season as either a pitcher or hitter, but scouts say he's got four quality pitches, including a 93 mph fastball. He just needs to make all his pitchers work better in concert with each other."

I'm hoping he focuses on one thing. He didn't do too well with both this year. I think it will help him to choose one or the other and focus on it, but just my opinion.

I agree. I hope he just focuses on pitching b/c it sounds like he has 4 quality pitches; he has the stuff, but needs some fine tuning.
