White Sox select RHRP Eric Adler in sixth round (No. 191 overall)
Wonky control and command, but in possession of a "death slider?" This Wake Forest righty is definitely welcome
White Sox select LHSP Tyler Schweitzer in fifth round (No. 161 overall)
It’s time for a crafty lefthander pick — plus an obligatory state of Indiana pick (h/t @JamesOs30988211 and @JResis)
