Here's an article about the Sox draft preparation on MLB.com...
http://mlb.mlb.com//news/article.jsp...k_cws&c_id=cws This is Hahn's first Draft in charge and will show his imprint, but the marching orders haven't changed for taking a player with impact. That player could be a high-school middle infielder or college pitcher. But Laumann believes the team can get someone with a high upside and someone who is signable as well. "We might have one guy and I'd rather not comment on any specifics, one guy we deem to be a superior talent that for more than just signability reasons might slide a little bit," Laumann said. "We are going to have to play that game, if the percentages of taking that risk to get him signed outweigh getting the guy we want. We are going to get a guy we want and can sign and address things we need to get done." |

Signability is in the eye of the beholder though isn't it? What a player an agent or for that matter the rest of MLB says is signable may not fit into the White Sox definition of signable.
Remember they've spent the least amount of money signing minor league talent over the past five years than anyone in MLB. Lip |

However the Sox, or any other team, operated under the old CBA essentially has no meaning any more.

As long as players and agents can no longer hold teams hostage with absurd, out of line demands, then 99.9% of players should be signable. |

Chris Anderson, who Law has been projecting, would be a solid get in my opinion. They need to build up his endurance, but man his slider can be devastating. He also has a decent change up. If they can get that arm ready for 190-200 IP while sitting in the 90s on the fastball, kid is going to be solid.

It will be interesting to see who the Astros take first. I've heard it could be either of Gray, Appel or Bryant.
Something tells me Boras will be up to his old tricks with Appel. I wonder how far he'll fall this year, with no college to fall back on... |

I hope we at least take a look at Tim Anderson and not get scared by the fact that he might go to college. Kids the only decent SS prospect in the draft and has a real shot. Plus, we're absolutely barren there in our system (I know, pretty much everywhere else too).

I would be concerned about Anderson's bat developing, and not only because our farm system has not been good at it historically.

First two picks make the prognosticators look dumb.
I'm really surprised on Appel going to Houston, hope they can sign him. The Astros did sign two of Boras' players last year. Also the Cubs not picking Gray is a bit odd, as they have little SP depth in their system. |
