/Like many drafts, the 2014 MLB draft wound up with a huge amount of conversation based on extremely limited information. The general public only gets tiny snippets of meaningful knowledge about a lot of these players. Then you factor in the rumors - many of which are deliberately skewed by front offices floating misinformation in order to disguise their true strategy. And even if we did know what the front offices did, just take a look at Top 100 prospect lists or drafts from 5-10 years ago and you'll see how accurate that information turns out to be. After weeks and then months of prognostication and mock drafts, people had generally deduced what would happen, and then began talking themselves out of it.

It brings me back to the 90s and early 2000s, but it is an inversion of the model that we have become used to seeing in the Obama Administration. With the presence of Jose Abreu and Adam Eaton -- and hopefully eventually Avisail Garcia and Matt Davidson -- it appears that the organizational need pendulum has swung away from offense and back toward pitching. And although this may change, it appears that a clear Top Three has emerged for the upcoming MLB draft and the White Sox are fortunate enough to have one of those three selections.

/With the MLB Draft right around one month away, draft boards are beginning to take shape.

/In June, with the #3 selection the White Sox will have the highest first round draft pick they have had since taking Harold Baines #1 overall in 1977. They've fared pretty well with their three Top 5 selections since then, grabbing guys like Jack McDowell and Alex Fernandez - although taking Kurt Brown ahead of Barry Bonds was probably ill-advised.
