July 21, 20178 yr Is it crazy to want Giolito up here now, get a few starts with Cooper at the helm? What's the difference with him getting bombed in AAA and getting hit around for the 2017 White Sox at this point? I think it will help him a lot, but they will wait for one of his good starts before the org brings him up. Everything else today has been great
July 21, 20178 yr Giolito bombs and it was still a very good night for White Sox prospects. This is fun.
July 21, 20178 yr QUOTE (maxjusttyped @ Jul 21, 2017 -> 02:34 AM) I wonder if Kopech will get a start or two at Charlotte before the season ends. Hope not, need to watch innings

July 21, 20178 yr QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 20, 2017 -> 08:36 PM) Hope not, need to watch innings He's at 90 after tonight's start. If ~120 is the limit, promoting him to Charlotte after the Sox call up Lopez would make sense. But I understand the rationale behind keeping him in AA the entire season, too.
July 21, 20178 yr So nice having multiple legit position player prospects to follow for once. Fun night.
July 21, 20178 yr Dickman is also 1-3 with a double. Just saw Kopech's line too. 0BB in 7 innings, awesome.
July 21, 20178 yr Kopech hasn't had a start with fewer than 2 BB. Looking like he'll beat that unless he has a rotten 8th inning (at 85 pitches, I suppose he'll go into the 8th).
July 21, 20178 yr Kopech pitching seven scoreless innings with no walks and eight Ks, throwing 62 of 85 pitches for strikes the most encouraging development of the night. This is the guy who can become a true #1 with star quality.
July 21, 20178 yr DSL... Josue Guerrero now hitting .191 after an 0-4 (3 Ks) Ramon Beltre had 3 hits Ulises Martinez and Jorgen Rosas had 2 hits each Craig Dedelow 3-7 1HR 2RBI for GF.

This is the guy who can become a true #1 with star quality. I think he's become a bit lost in the shuffle but there's no doubt that he has had a great year. Doing what he's doing at his age in AA is incredibly impressive.
July 21, 20178 yr Can't wait for Robert to come back and hopefully start doing his thang. The future is beyond exciting!
July 21, 20178 yr Kopech got thru 8th with 0 walks. Tremendous night. Diaz left some men on down in W-S

July 21, 20178 yr QUOTE (bmags @ Jul 21, 2017 -> 02:59 AM) Bad news: W-S lost their lead Good news: means more Eloy As soon as I saw Diaz in, I was hopeful for another AB
July 21, 20178 yr QUOTE (bmags @ Jul 20, 2017 -> 08:59 PM) Bad news: W-S lost their lead Good news: means more Eloy Can't believe the Sox tortured us with Moncada up last night, then their moronic f***ing long inning prevents him from getting a 4th PA before the monsoon, then they have the audacity to have a scheduled off day today. At least the farm is as exciting as I've ever seen it.
