New MLB.com mock, if the real draft plays out this way, this place will collectively freak out:
EDIT 2: Fixed it.
The rest of the AL East in draft order:
And...
EDIT: Why is the format like this?

FG has the Sox taking Chase DeLauter at 24 and Jordan Beck with their 2nd pick. They have Rocker going in the teens.
Typically we post Sox info here. Not usually a game thread. First few Sox picks even get their own thread.
Ohh ok. I remembered one last year, I guess it was because we were picking so high. Thanks for the response!
LOL. I should have bolded and italicized may. I covered my bases with my next comment, though.
I love chaos. And I love the experts getting it wrong.
Even if, ultimately the Rangers got it wrong.
The MLB draft is crapshoot-y to begin with, so might as well take a big swing, you know?
EDIT: I guess this logic led the Red Sox to Trey Ball.

Knowing the O’s ways they negotiated with those 2 plus a couple more and took the best deal to spend some money later.
Well, Ken Griffey Jr was the only other son of a MLBer to go #1. Mark Merchant was #2, and I don't think his dad was a player
I don't follow college baseball much (and certainly not HS baseball), but the degree to which the Holliday family is tied to Stillwater, OK, is insane.
I’m hoping Dylan Lesko falls to them. High school pitcher who was talked about top 5 before TJ surgery. I would love to see them gamble on the upside if he makes it to them.
In 1966, the KC Athletics, drafting no 2, picked a guy named Reggie Jackson. The Mets, with their no 1 pick chose a player who never made it to the majors. On the other hand, there have been future Hall of Famers who were picked way down. With football and basketball prospects, you can pretty much project what you've got, but with baseball, it is indeed a crapshoot. How do you know that hard thrower will develop better control and decent breaking stuff? How do you know that "natural" hitter will do against major league breaking stuff when they've never had a chance to go up against it.
Interesting that the Rangers end up with both Leiter (who has been rough this year) and Rocker.
I watched all of Rockers starts in Troy. First game he seemed a little shaky, but the rest he really looked great, and was hitting high 90s. Would've loved for him to fall to the Sox.
Mets just took Jett Williams, one of the players who'd previously been mocked to Boston.
I think I'm hoping they take Daniel Susac just because catcher seems like a persistent organizational weak spot - not because I necessarily know anything about him beyond his position! - but I don't expect him to fall that far.
