Sure getting a high first rounder helps.
Assuming you don’t draft a bust, and work with him properly. And then in 3-5 years you have a player!!!
If the Sox are rebuilding, the draft is NOT the way to go. Oh they have to do it and do it right. But it’s too long of a process.
I’m not sure what Mookie might bring back (and I wouldn’t start by dealing him), but a year of him might be worth more than 3 months of Aroldis Chapman.
ERod isn’t the Sox most useful chip, FYI. Devers is. Followed by Benintendi...
