RHP Grant Monroe of Schaumburg (IL) H.S. was taken by the White Sox in the 38th round.

Name doesn't sound familiar, but I'll have to look back through my scorebooks to see if the team that I coached faced him between 2001-2003 (when he would have been 6th-8th grade).

If there is enough interest I was thinking about doing another one of these draft threads for next year. We can learn about these guys together and be a little more informed when it comes to the draft next year. Just let me know.

Courtesy pick, his father is an exec. of the White Sox... Maybe Boyer seen him or poss. Jim as Larry Monroe is one of the best to come of the area ever.
