At 316, the Red Sox select Niko Kavadas, 1B, Notre Dame. Was in a meeting but LETS GO Had to step out for a short bit, so I'm late to the party. But nice to have some legit Greek prospects in the system. Defensive limitation be damned. This guy mashes, has the bat speed, and has hot elite college pitching. Sign me up! He's a senior, so should be an easy sign. Give him the $125k and let's get him going.

Kiley McDaniel had Luis Guerrero ranked just outside his top 200 overall and mentioned him in his final rankings.

I feel like more and more, the Red Sox haven't be scared off by troubling pitching command/control indicators (i.e., BBs), so as long as the raw stuff checks certain boxes.

I wonder if they use intel on guys with questionable signability who are lifelong Sox fans and pop those guys in these late rounds.

Owen Sharts to the Pirates to open round 13. Sorry everyone. There goes about a dozen good Gameday thread titles . . . .

The Sox sure didn't value pitching like the other baseball teams did. Interesting!

Ben Malgeri from Northeastern, and MA native goes to the Tigers, he played for the North Shore Navs w Frelick and Morissette last summer and really impressed. He then went off in their conference tourney to get them to the NCAAs and is having a nice summer. His teammate Jared Dupere went a few rounds earlier to San Fran. He set school record for HRs this yr, and another MA native I wanted to highlight. Overall 3 MA and Northeastern players drafted today. Mike Glavine has a good thing going at Northeastern right now.

They got Brandon by Default. This is way better than any Sharts joke today And more Gameday thread titles wasted on poor drafting by Bloom!

Sikes sounds like a solid org guy who could climb a few rungs, maybe get packaged into a trade. If I was running a draft, I'd pick guys down in these late rounds who are the smartest and best make-up guys available to see if any of them could be groomed as future front-office types.

Lots of video of this outing. A few times he comes off the mound it appears there is something wrong with his right leg. Maybe hurt or a brace but looks like he is hobbling when walking. Didn't seem to impact pitching but looks like something is wrong.

Pitched in the MLB Draft League - apparently has high spin rates on his FB.
