I don't follow college baseball closely, but I do read Baseball America which does cover it a great deal, but when thecSox drafted Madrigal first overall, I assumed he was a SS. In fact, I could have sworn it said SS by his name when the pick was announced. I have been watching the World Series and am a little disappointed the Sox drafted a 2b who is a foot shorter than his teammates. And before anyone reminds me of Altuve, let me remind you that there have been a lot more Chris Snopeks than Jose altuves. BTW - the dude has made a bunch of errors in this WS.

Re: First round pick
I thought I heard that he was the best hitter in the draft. Also, they did say shortstop at draft, but Sox mentioned trying hum at SS even though 2nd baseman in college.sharpy wrote:I don't follow college baseball closely, but I do read Baseball America which does cover it a great deal, but when thecSox drafted Madrigal first overall, I assumed he was a SS.

Re: First round pick
High contact, no power, high OBP. I'm sure he'll be fine. Just looks small
