Closest thing we have to a draft thread, so might as well post this here: McDaniel's last work for Fangraphs was sortable draft boards for 2016-18. You can see the 2016 one here. www.fangraphs.com/scoutboard.aspx?draft=2016mlb&type=0&pos=allThose who were clamoring for the Red Sox to get an earlier pick so that they could select Ryan Boldt should note he's at #36 on this list.

At this time last year, Benintendi was not even listed in the top 100 At the same rate, he jumped higher than 99% of players in the last decade in that length of time. Benny is a special kid. But yeah, still not worth worrying about now.

And how often will those positions change in the coming months? Answer:often! Well understood. My point was that just because we're familiar with a guy we shouldn't overrate them because of that. Anyways, the Benintendi thing was also in part because few people even realized he was eligible. Not that he would necessarily have been listed even if they had, but that's not really the best example to use.

Keeping tabs on possible draft postings at the same time as Dave's Hot Stoves moves and the Winter Meetings this year, and how they impact our current Sox prospects and players, might be conducive to brain explosions. Fortunately they won't all happen simultaneously.
