    2022 MLB Draft

    Maybe not as exciting as getting #4 last year, but Sox pick 24th on Sunday night and then do have the re-do for Jud Fabian from last year early in the 2nd round that begins on Monday.

    At #24, it's hardly worth speculating who we might get.
    When you say it's gonna happen now
    When exactly do you mean?

    I was high on Rocker last year, but more of that was based on his earlier years and the recent successes of Vanderbilt pitching and not on his comparatively lackluster senior season as a Commodore…

    At 24, I can talk myself into a reclamation project like that, especially when you have the Fabian pick right after.

    A lot of mock drafts have Fabian going late 2nd round now. Whoops. Tough break, kid.

    I am hopeful that Jett Williams falls to us at 24, but remain doubtful we get that lucky.

    If so, like toman at 24.

    The Bleacher Report graded all team drafts.

    https://bleacherreport.com/articles/...y-team-results

    The worst:
    D LAD
    D TBR
    C- BOS
    C- MIL
    C+ HOU
    C+ CHC

    (BAL A, TOR B+, NYY B)

    I'd trust TBR's drafting over Bleacher Report...

    Given what the Dodgers have been able to produce, I look at that very skeptically.

    One of the interesting things Law noted was that the Red Sox organizationally think they can teach the hitters to drive the ball more and get into their power - and thus seem okay drafting more of these high contact middle infielders who have not shown power at the amateur level.

    I think you can teach power. I don't think you can teach contact skills. I think would agree with the Sox theory then.

    Bleacher report might be the single worse source out there. I could write for Bleacherreport.

    No you couldn’t.

    Not with your addiction to subjects, predicates, coherency and common sense…

    Lot of chatter about the Red Sox showing interest in rocker.
