dasox24 Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 QUOTE (Flash Tizzle @ Jun 5, 2008 -> 02:29 PM) Very well spoken player. The most composed I've heard all day. Absolutely. I said it earlier, but I really think he has the potential to be a very popular player if he makes it to the big leagues. In a completely heterosexual way, he's a good looking guy, polite (i.e. "Mr. Gammons"), cracked a couple jokes in there... Has the makings of a popular guy. The one thing that may hurt him is how little he relates to the typical, blue-collar Sox fan, and you can see that in how a few of you have already made comments about his bad accent and bad haircut, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look fits as well. We'll absolutely love him (if he's producing) and other teams will hate him because of his talent and outspoken personality. Oh, and yeah, the women will love this guy.

BearSox Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 He is far from the most talented player available, but he is hard nosed and is very baseball smart. His swing isn't the prettiest, but he's got some skill with the bat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bjm676 Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 I like the pick. Beckham at short, Richar at 2B (if he starts hitting) and Ramirez in CF. He also looks like Gavin Floyd's little brother. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dasox24 Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 (edited) I know this may be a little selfish, but I hope Casey Kelly falls a bit, so he'll come to Tennessee. I think I could like a potential NFL QB on our football team and a potential Big League SS on our baseball team. Though, I get the feeling the Cubs will take him, and if they do, they definitely have the resources to get him signed.

I don't want him to sign with a baseball team, but if it's the Cubs, that will be even worse. If he's gonna play baseball, I just really hope it's with someone other than the Cubs.

Soxbadger Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 The more I look at the stats, the harder it is to say that you could really pick Smoak over Beckham, unless you just saw something or fell in love with him (Smoak). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flash Tizzle Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 Uh oh, isn't Cashner the pitcher who teams were thinking could be converted into a front line starter? It'd love to have additional selections for just this reason. You'd never take Cashner around our slot, but around 15-20 you can take a risk that he's either a great reliever or possible convert.
