Looks good in the black and white.

 

i am hoping one of my friends get drafted in the later rounds. John Rosinski, OF from New Trier. He's got bloodlines, his dad was the 4th pick by the Cubs in '75.

They are no going to take a risky player. That's no their MO.

 

They are going to build assets. KW has shown he'll draft for a need if he thinks he has one, AKA Josh Fields. Otherwise, its all about building assets.

 

You can't hardly argue with KW's success here he's been able to turn his draft assets into players for our major league roster... Jim Thome being a prime example.

So, Jason, Cerb, any other draft experts -- who should we be looking at with the second pick? Is Hodges a realistic possibility?

Yes, even though he's a 3rd baseman he' sa very good hitter, a good athlete and can switch hit. Obviously we do have a few other guys at 3rd though (Fields and Schnur).

 

I wouldn't be shocked if we take a catcher relatively early though in this draft and I think we'll load the first few rounds on PITCHING. Look for a potential closer here (may even be a reach pick).

Yup, and we have a history of redrafting players who we've selected before (Getz, Brooks). Expect more pitching to be drafted.
