No I mean Jesus, that was stung!

Jesus.

Who had Target Field for Nicky's first HR? Lol.

Ahahahaha. Do it kid!

Yup. If he wants to keep striking guys out like that I'm cool with it.

I'm probably spoiled by the rest of the rotation (+Kopech), but does anyone else find Keuchel an incredibly dull pitcher to watch?

I had never heard of it until this season. Does this/has it started trickling down to the minors/amateur ranks as well?

Complaining about Jason and Nick Madrigal in the first 3 pages. Never change game threads.

Let's get it!

Figure we could post the random prospect blurbs/notes/assessments in here for the 2021 minor league season since they don't really fit elsewhere.

Woo! Fuck you Singer! God I hate Brady Singer.

Sheets bomb.

Kelley done. 1.2 IP 3 H 5 ER 3 BB 1 SO. 49 pitches. 26 of them strikes. Color me unimpressed with what I saw. Perhaps my expectations are too high though.

Stiever now with 8 SO through 3.0 IP. Fastball consistently at 96 if you buy the readings.

Not quite sure what to make of Kelley. He's all over the place. Also, according to the broadcast/announcer he's sitting around 93 MPH, but he's touched 95-96 in some high leverage at bats.

Stiever looks pretty good. 5 SO through 2 IP. Also no idea how accurate the gun is in Charlotte, but he's up to 97 with consistent 96s.

Relevant amongst draft folks around here. Some people were big fans.

Also relevant. Mick Abel is apparently up to 99 today and looks filthy.

https://www.milb.com/scores/chicago-white-sox/2021-05-16 Kelley going for Kanny. Stiever for Charlotte.

Hot takes a flying right here.

Sit down asshat.

Pilkington with a superb line. 5.0 IP 3 H 1 ER 1 BB 8 SO
