danman31 Posted June 7, 2007 Share Posted June 7, 2007 I'm really starting to get Nick Schmidt vibes. I just have a feeling he will fall to the Sox and I'd probably be the only happy/satisfied person here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Tizzle Posted June 7, 2007 Author Share Posted June 7, 2007 (edited) I'm hoping Schmidt and Burgess are taken before us so we're not tempted into selected them. Edited June 7, 2007 by Flash Tizzle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I dunno if that's the type of high upside guy the Sox are looking for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please, draft gods, have him off the board by #25. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

santo=dorf Posted June 7, 2007 Share Posted June 7, 2007 (edited) QUOTE(Flash Tizzle @ Jun 7, 2007 -> 02:23 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Not only Porcello, but for Main or Smoker. Perhaps Matt Harvey. It'd be devastating if we miss our projected player because of one more victory than the the preceding team. That's why I said before, any victory made after we were out of contention last season is one less opportunity to draft our player. Look at 2002 and Cole Hamels; we selected right afterwards. Draft position is huge, and can easily change a team's future. How do you know the Sox were even targeted Cole? Draft position in the MLB draft is not huge as evident by the number of flops in the early rounds and successful players who come after the second round or so. Give it a rest already. If you aren't rooting for the major league team to win, you aren't a fan of the major league team. Edited June 7, 2007 by santo=dorf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maggsmaggs Posted June 7, 2007 Share Posted June 7, 2007 Texas prolly goes with a signable guy right here, so that with the 24th pick they can grab Porcello and break my heart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nitetrain8601 Posted June 7, 2007 Share Posted June 7, 2007 Blake Beavan. Not a bad pick. His delivery reminds me of Jake Peavy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have additional compensation picks, so if Porcello is the pick they're not guranteeing much money for later picks. I'm hoping San Diego and San Francisco have similar reasons for not throwing 8 million at Porcello. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joejoesox Posted June 7, 2007 Share Posted June 7, 2007 porcello is a boras client, probably isn't a coincedence he's fallen this far into the first round, even if he was available at 25, i dont see KW dealing with boras Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
