Power arm in the 5th round. Has mechanical issues but consistently throws in the mid 90's. Has a closers mentality, needs to work on his offspeed stuff.

 

I'm guessing Sox scouts loved his arm and obviously think they can tweak his delivery a bit. Should be a quick sign.

Real quick tidbit:  My brother just called me, and he works for Baseball America.  The people at BA started laughing after the Sox took Brooks. According to the people there, it was the biggest stretch of the draft.

 

Do any of the BA people work for a major league organization? Didn't think so. The Sox know what they're doing.

Come on, I'm just relaying what information I heard. Almost all of us were disappointed in the pick when we heard it anyways.
