As much as I’d love to see a playoff run, it’s been clear what kind of year it was going to be since at least the TB/NYY sweep, and probably earlier than that. At this point I’m just rooting for the draft pick to go as high as possible. Currently at 17, with a chance to go a bit higher if some of the NL teams pick up the pace. Mid teen talent isn’t necessarily much different than early twenties, but the bonus pool is larger. Given the creative job they’ve done with a small bonus pool the last two years, I want to see what kind of talent they can get with more money to work with.

The Orioles sweep actually hurt the Sox in this regard. Add- The Sox probably won't pick higher than 12. There are a lot of horrible teams in baseball right now.

Imagine if the Red Sox went over the 3rd cap this year and had to drop from 15 to 25 or whatever it might end up being? That would be between $2.5-3M less in their draft pool.
