Now 9 players left on the Baseball America Top 500 that are ranked higher than the Sox pick, 3 picks to go:

 

19. Sean Reid-Foley, RHP

20. Monte Harrison, OF

21. Jacob Gatewood, SS

23. Spencer Adams, RHP

33. Jacob Bukauskas, RHP (signability issues)

36. Nick Burdi, RHP

40. Michael Gettys, OF

41. A.J. Reed, 1B

42. Joe Gatto, RHP

 

Unless Reid-Foley, Harrison and Gatewood go in consecutive picks, the Sox will have the chance (bonuses obviously a factor) to get a BA Top 21 rank at 44.

I'm guessing they go off the board for some Rodon savings.

The rumour is that Rodon's demand is $6m. That's only a couple hundred thou over the Sox slot. Mightn't need much savings. Mightn't need any at all if they get him at slot for a promise of a quick promotion.

It's certainly what I'm hoping as there is plenty of talent still on the board.

The quote was "$6m plus".
