danman31 Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 QUOTE (Heads22 @ Jun 5, 2008 -> 01:11 PM) Yuck, Rays fans are like Jets fans, except their franchise is f***ing horribler. Really? Jets fans would differ lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthSideSox72 Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 6th pick is Skipworth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heads22 Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 Maybe the Reds could take Alonso, leaving us with a lot in our lap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalapse Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 And Skip-iddy-do-da is off the board. The Reds will take Beckham and we'll be sitting pretty with Smoak available at 8. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heirdog Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 QUOTE (quickman @ Jun 5, 2008 -> 02:40 PM) the guy can flat out hit, I truly think he will be a huge offensive threat. That explanation would be fine if you said, "I like Wallace" but you said "...Wallace over Smoak?" Can't the same explanation be used for Smoak? Why do you think Wallace will be better?

daa84 Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 QUOTE (whitesoxbrian @ Jun 5, 2008 -> 02:40 PM) Somebody- convince me Wallace would be the better pick over Smoak. BTW, Marlins/Rays World Series in 2011. smoaks got more power potential....wallace is a safer bet to hit with average and probably has a slightly better eye... smoak is huge and switch hits though, but on the downside he only plays 1st.....wallace theres a chance he stays at third, but probably gonna be 1b long term Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthSideSox72 Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 OK, so, 2 of these three will be available at the 8th slot, if not all three; Smoak, Wallace, G Beckham. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cerbaho-WG Posted June 5, 2008 Author Share Posted June 5, 2008 Welp, Crow/Smoak/Wallace/Alonso will be available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
traydragen Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 Wow, I've been watching Smoak for the last couple years here at the University of South Carolina and this kid can do amazing things, also, he's very humble and comes from a great family background. HUUGE article about him in the paper today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whitesoxbrian Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 (edited) We're next- finally. I'm leaning, and hopefully KW is too, toward Smoak. Edited June 5, 2008 by whitesoxbrian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JPN366 Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 (edited) Justin Smoak! Justin Smoak! Justin Smoak! "Now batting for the Barons...number 12...Justin Smoak!" I want to hear that, otherwise I'll campaign for the Barons to change affiliations ASAP! In 2009 of course.
