April 10, 20178 yr QUOTE (raBBit @ Apr 10, 2017 -> 11:42 AM) http://www.milb.com/scoreboard/index.jsp?s...mp;ymd=20170410 Matt Cooper doing Cooper things so far. 2IP, H, 4K. Let up a run and a few hits in the 3rd but recorded 3 more K's
April 10, 20178 yr QUOTE (BaseballNick @ Apr 10, 2017 -> 12:25 PM) 9K 0BB through 4.0IP for Cooper on just 51 pitches so far. the real question is what are the sox going to do with him if he continues to dominate, when they continue the sell off that likely won't happen till early June and when the vets begin to get moved I imagine some amount of high level pitching will come back that'll keep him blocked due to his more advanced age, hes 25 now at AA and even though he is older hes managed steady progress through the system.

April 10, 20178 yr Author MLB Pipeline @MLBPipeline now Matt Cooper super in 2017 debut for @BhamBarons. 5 IP 1 R 4 H 1 BB 11 K (career high 12) No. 28 on #WhiteSox Top 30: link CORRECTION, Pipeline has it wrong, they counted Will Lambs inning of work into that tweet for some reason. Cooper's line: 4.0 IP, 4 H, 1R/1ER, 0BB, 9K....Very Nice Edited April 10, 20178 yr by Sleepy Harold
April 10, 20178 yr Michalczewski 2-3 with a triple and a walk. Would love to see him show some more pop and cut down on the K rate a bit. I know that ballpark really suppresses power though.
April 10, 20178 yr 1-2-3 first inning for Pelfrey. Enjoy it. Moncada k looking Edited April 10, 20178 yr by flavum

April 11, 20178 yr QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 10, 2017 -> 06:59 PM) Solorzano off to great start He's a guy who would shoot up the prospect charts with a little uptick in velocity. Kid just knows how to pitch.
April 11, 20178 yr QUOTE (flavum @ Apr 10, 2017 -> 07:20 PM) Moncada with a walk, stolen base. And a throwing error. That actually excites me more than him getting a hit (well, minus a homer). I was hoping the sox brass didn't take away what made him so intriguing as a prospect which is his ability to draw walks.

He's also fast as hell and that will lead to a high BABIP.
