Sickels and Matt Garrioch have their second mock draft up. Obviously these are largely for fun. Especially with the draft still six weeks away, and the uncertainty of how teams will aproach it considering the drastic changes to the CBA.
http://www.minorleagueball.com/2012/...-april-edition I would be rather pleased with the Trahan pick, but as history has shown us the Sox don't draft many prep players. Especially in the 1st round. The last one was Kris Honel in 2001. There does exist the possibility that the draft changes alter the White Sox approach though. Especially since later round prep draft picks now have more incentive to go to college. If the Sox desire any high schoolers, they generally need to be drafted rather early on. (Lest the reallocation scenario.) |

Baseball America's 1st mock draft is up. Interesting take on it. Especially if the rumors on the prep players are true. Haven't taken a high school player with a 1st round pick since 2001.
http://www.baseballamerica.com/today...2/2613371.html I'd be fine with Smoral or Hawkins. Don't mind Wacha either. Hoping for Stroman or Fried to fall. Last edited by DirtySox; 05-10-2012 at 08:13 PM. |

Lot depends on whether K.Williams thinks they can contend. @ProfessorFog: Are #WhiteSox legitimately on prep players w/1st rder? #mlbdraft |

The name I really hope falls to the Sox and they jump all over is Max Fried. Lefty who looks like a future number 1. Lance Mccullers Jr. another Prep Pitcher around out pick I love.
It would be extremely interesting if the Sox landed Fried and then Giolito and his injury concern slid to them in round 2. High School teammates, could be a pipe dream but what a scenerio that would be.

I'm encouraged by the reports thus far that the Sox might be taking a longer term approach to the farm by actually considering prep players for once. |

Sox Not Ruling Out High School Player with 1st Pick
I'd be happy with any of the players that were noted. Particularly Smoral, Hawkins, and Dahl. |

Chatting with a Scout about the 2012 Draft
Some interesting comments, particularly about Stratton, Heaney, and Wacha, who very easily could be potential White Sox picks. |

I hope the Astros grab Buxton.
The top college pitchers look good, but there's no Strasberg there, and you never know how they'll turn out. A toolsy outfielder would be a better pick, especially with the bigger focus on offense in the AL. Besides, they have some nice pitching prospects already, and look to add more in the midseason deals of Myers, Wandy Rodriguez and Carlos Lee. |
