IMO, you can never have too much pitching. If a pitcher happens to be the best guy on the board, go ahead and get him. The Sox don't need to get themselves in trouble by drafting inferior talent to fill a need. There are plenty of picks to go around, but they really need to hit on this #3 pick.

Of course, the Sox draft woes revolve more around the early round disasters than the nepotism picks, but it sure seems the Sox drink at this well more than most teams. Schueler's daughter, Baines's kid, Ozzie's kid, Williams' kid, Parent's kid. Granted it's not the biggest problem they face, but it is the most easily remedied. And if you weren't such a smugass ****, maybe this forum might be a more pleasant site to frequent. |

FWIW, it's not like the Sox whiffed on some game changer in the 2008 Draft. A quick glance shows the best player taken after Williams appears to be Andy Dirks. If we're going to talk about what the Sox need to fix in terms of their brutally bad drafting and developing, I'll pick "Stop blowing early round draft picks on worthless players" 8 days a week before I pick "Nepotism in the 40th round" Just my ![]() |

Since we probably won't have a shot at Rodon, Tyler Beede is on top of my wishlist.

I'd like to see us grab Alex Jackson. I know a lot of people see him moving positions, but if he sticks behind the plate he'd solve a lot for us. And that bat's gonna play no matter where he ends up. |

I'll second the Jackson pick though....he could be a special player offensively even if he moves off catcher. A lot can happen in the 8 months before the draft though.

Why so many people picking pitching in this thread? This team needs bats, if anything.
