Boopa1219 Posted January 6, 2016 Author Share Posted January 6, 2016 (edited) QUOTE (BlackSox13 @ Dec 28, 2015 -> 12:33 PM) More mocks because, I'm bored I guess. This one has Rutherford to the Sox: http://www.fueledbysports.com/2016-mlb-mock-draft/ This one stayed the same with the Sox picking Okey: http://www.mymlbdraft.com/MLB-Mock-Draft Rutherford at 10 would be a steal, should be a top five pick. I like Delvin Perez, been trying to read up on him. I am also trying to look up info on prep catchers because the college class is pretty weak. I think you should always draft best player available, but I think that you should always. always, always draft/sign multiple catchers (if the pick/INTL prospect is there), a la the NFL QB philosophy. Catcher is by far the weakest position in the sport and it is so hard to find a quality starting caliber catcher, by drafting multiple catchers you simply improve your chances of finding a diamond in the rough.

GreenSox Posted January 6, 2016 Share Posted January 6, 2016 QUOTE (BlackSox13 @ Dec 25, 2015 -> 12:39 PM) Take it for what's its worth but according to MLBTR this is the latest comp round picks after the Murphy signing. http://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2015/12/upda...raft-order.html COMPENSATION ROUND (bonus picks given to teams who issued qualifying offers to players who signed elsewhere; picks are allotted in inverse order of 2015 record) 27. White Sox (for Jeff Samardzija signing with the Giants) 28. Nationals (for Jordan Zimmermann signing with the Tigers) 29. Mets (for Daniel Murphy signing with the Nationals) 30. Dodgers (for Zack Greinke signing with the Diamondbacks) 31. Cardinals (for John Lackey signing with the Cubs) 32. Cardinals (for Jason Heyward signing with the Cubs) And the Cards get one of those bogus "market comp" picks too I think. There's your "cardinal way."

Cardinals (for Jason Heyward signing with the Cubs) Best Case Scenario for White Sox would be signing Cespedes and then: Ian Kennedy/Royals, Yovani Gallardo/Astros, Justin Upton/Angels, and Ian Desmond/Padres. That would give the White Sox the 25th pick and doesn't account for Fowler, Kendrick, or Chen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigFinn Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 (edited) PerfectGame.com has a nice list of the 2016 MLB draft order. They have been keeping it updated as free agent signings have caused some teams to gain picks and other teams to lose picks according to the compensation schedule. As of now (after the re-signing of Chris Davis by the Orioles) the White Sox are slated for picks #10, #28, and #53. Edit: Whoops, I forgot the link! 2nd Edit: the second round pick is #51 (Detroit and Miami lost their 2nd round picks) Edited January 19, 2016 by BigFinn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harfman77 Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Dec 17, 2015 -> 04:59 PM) Kyle Murray, QB Texas A&M, is quitting football, transferring to a JuCo, and will play baseball, looking to get drafted next year. I believe he is a MI Murray was considered the top prep SS in last years class, but told teams not to draft him as he wanted to play football. He is not quitting football, he is transferring to OU and will sit out a year before taking over as QB there. Not sure it is fair to call the kid a head case given A&M's track record with running off QB's the last few seasons. I haven't seen anything to indicate he will play baseball at OU. He is not currently listed on their roster, so I assume he isn't playing this season. A guy worth a flyer in the 11th round for sure, probably no shot at him, but you can at least take a run and see what happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's your "cardinal way." Not really bogus, St Louis is the 21st largest media market which puts it in the bottom ten in the league and its probably even lower than that as baseball considers DC as part of the Baltimore market. They are sandwiched between Denver and Pittsburgh. http://www.stationindex.com/tv/tv-markets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best case would be Fowler to Orioles and Gallardo to a team like Houston. That puts the Sox at #26. I can't see anyone giving up a 1st rounder for Desmond or Kendrick at this point.

If he is, I would love for the Sox to grab him. With that first pick, I think I'm looking at Delvin Perez, Nick Senzel, Corey Ray, Buddy Reed, and Kyle Lewis. Will Benson is interesting as well, but I think he'd be a little reach at their first pick. Bobby Dalbec should be off the radar, too similar to Matt Davidson IMO. I'd be fine with another big arm with the top pick, but they really need to infuse some major upside position players into the system and this is a great draft to do it.
