Balta1701 Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 QUOTE (DirtySox @ Jun 6, 2011 -> 09:40 PM) They weren't drafting for need. Bell and Swihart were the 2 best players available. I didn't say they were drafting for need. I was ridiculing the idea that the pick was done for "Need". Of course they drafted the guys they had as BPA.

DirtySox Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 QUOTE (Cali @ Jun 6, 2011 -> 08:41 PM) I don't know who the Sox will pick, but I expect a J4L meltdown either way haha The best way to handle it is expect a signable college arm, and be elated if it's something else!

Ozzie Ball Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 Someone's going to get great value on Daniel Norris... assuming he's still signable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jordan4life_2007 Posted June 7, 2011 Author Share Posted June 7, 2011 Josh Bell, Brian Goodwin, Daniel Norris, Dillon Howard, Matt Purke still on the board. So like every year, there will be some legitimate talent there for the Sox. Wonder what the excuse will be this time around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
