In their top 30, Colas at 22yo. Another guy is 18. Everyone else is 16yo. So to find these guys you are scouting and developing 13-14yo? Like going to the little league fields and going "yep he's a major leaguer, heres 2 million"

and Yermin!

I hated my post because I didn't want to single out a guy chasing his dream, hence I didn't name him. I was just using it for reference. Would love for him to develop and know not all development is linear and some develop later. In a good system that guy might still be ranked but drop ten spots was more my point due to other prospects looking better.

Hopefully you are correct. Lot of injury bugs going around.

Remember DSL pitch counts are inaccurate. Something close to 4p per walk+ 3p per k + 1p per hit +1p per out not a k. Played around with box scores and its very close. Maybe 1p per error or something but it close enough to know you can ignore them.

It will all depend on how Rodon finishes the season. If he looks like he did in the first part of the year, he is going to probably get more than the Sox will pay. If he comes back throwing 92 max and gets rocked, he isn't going to get anything close to your proposal.

Wow. A lot of which struggling guy deserves to be where? If you think our system is better than near the bottom, realize a power hitter who isn’t hitting for power and striking out 43% of the time moved up four spots.

I think you answered your own question. When you refer back to a Royals pen from several years ago and we all get what you are saying means it is not that common.

Great information. Now if you are the opposition, it also tells me to throw him more sliders period. Only show him fastballs to f with him.

Hope he gets well soon. Hernandez needs a break.

He needs a day off or two out of three. Just a short bench right now.

I get frustrated by modern two strike approaches. Also man on third less than two out failures. Not sure how we rank there and I sometimes forget there is another team trying to stop us. I did look up and was shocked that we don’t lead the world in gidp.

https://www.mlb.com/prospects/stats/affiliates?teamId=145&date=08/20/2021 https://www.milb.com/scores/chicago-white-sox/2021-08-20 Go Sox!

I wonder if going younger in the draft and more advanced internationally makes sense. You see some of the 17 yo international guys aren't MLB ready by the time their 40 man decisions come and you lose them to the bad rebuilding teams.

https://www.mlb.com/prospects/stats/affiliates?teamId=145&date=08/17/2021 https://www.milb.com/scores/chicago-white-sox/2021-08-17 McClure pitching for AAA on the same day as Rodon's slot in Sox rotation. Worth following? Probably not this year but Not sure if DSL will play today post storms. This is not meant to be political/religous but having spent time in the Caribbean, if you say prayers, say a prayer for the Haitian people. Lots of poverty to begin with and corregated tin huts don't hold up well in earthquakes and storms. If you have seen the poverty, you realize how good we have it. Bmags, welcome home! Hope vacation was great.

https://www.mlb.com/prospects/stats/affiliates?teamId=145&date=08/16/2021 Only DSL and ACL minors games today.

https://www.mlb.com/prospects/stats/affiliates?teamId=145&date=08/15/2021 https://www.milb.com/scores/chicago-white-sox/2021-08-15 Barons game was suspended so carries over. Yaz 0-3 3k

Beware DSL pitchcounts. They are wildly off. Haven't quite figured it out math wise but k are 3 pitches, walks 4, hits 1?, other outs 1? Something close from looking in past. Anyway, I learned to disregard them.

Worth repeating but Norge Vera listed as pitching one inning today for the DSL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! no runs 3k!!!!!!!!!!!!!
