flavum Posted July 27, 2017 Author Share Posted July 27, 2017 I'm rooting for a five of Kopech, Lopez, Giolito, Dunning, Adams. Cease in the pen. Rodon traded for more assets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rodon traded for more assets. agree on trading Rodon. He starts making real money next year. With Boras as his agent, he's not going to sign a deal like Sale or Q. Cut the cord early. Only risk is you'd be selling low and he could blossom elsewhere, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Feeky Magee Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 QUOTE (Scoots @ Jul 26, 2017 -> 08:41 PM) All of these fantastic pitching performances really gives you hope for the future rotation. If they can continue this success in the majors, a rotation of Kopech, Lopez, Dunning, a healthy and successful Rodon, should be very fun to watch. Where the f*** on your list is Chris Volstad?

Chicago White Sox Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 QUOTE (2005thxfrthmmrs @ Jul 26, 2017 -> 08:46 PM) Great to see Kopech finishing the year strong. Give him two more starts to hit 110 innings and let him rest his arm for the rest of the year. I really thought he'd hit a wall, but he's actually elevated his performance these last two starts.

Sox Fan In Husker Land Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 (edited) So Reynaldo Lopez's last 6 starts: 36 2/3 IP 49 K (12.02 K/9) 26 H 8 BB (1.96 BB/9) 0.93 WHIP 1.96 ERA Michael Kopech's last 3 starts: 20 IP 25 K (11.25 K/9) 10 H 4 BB (1.8 BB/9) 0.70 WHIP 0.90 ERA Man that's exciting to see.

He'll need to start next season in Winston-Salem again, but he'll probably still be young for his league. Way to early to give up on him IMO.

pmb0928 Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 (edited) Courtney Hawkins has actually been decent since back in Birmingham. Since July started he is 17-74 for .256 and only struck out 17 times. 10 rbis and 2 HRs. In his last 12 games he has only struck out twice in a game 1 time. Raised average 56 points in July. Maybe something is clicking for him. Prior to July he had struck out twice or more in Birmingham in 17 of 23 games. Only twice with 2 strikeouts in July. That is really an amazing turnaround.

I noticed this the other day. He's only 23 too, so it's not like he's moved into non-prospect age. I'm not going to put much stock in this, but start him at AA next year and move him to AAA if he does well. If he hits there, maybe, very tentative maybe, he gets a cup of coffee in September. Yeah, I can't even believe I just wrote that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Feeky Magee Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 Are we really even mentioning the majors for Hawkins because he's gone 4 weeks hitting .256/.320/.412, bringing his overall line to a whopping .185/.239/.327? Dude is dead as a prospect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
