August 12, 20178 yr QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 12, 2017 -> 06:26 PM) Rutherford is going to need to retool his swing Based off?
August 12, 20178 yr QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Aug 13, 2017 -> 12:38 AM) Based off? Buddy at the Kanny game, says he rolls over too much. Not a lot of hard contact in the few games he's seen him. He does love Burger's presence at the plate
August 12, 20178 yr QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Aug 12, 2017 -> 06:38 PM) Based off? I'm not a hitting expert, but it'll be difficult for him to tap into his power if he continues to post a 52% gb rate.
August 12, 20178 yr QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 12, 2017 -> 06:42 PM) Eloy beasting Beyond incredible right now.
August 12, 20178 yr QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Aug 13, 2017 -> 12:46 AM) Beyond incredible right now. It's to the point that 1-3 with a walk seems like a bad game
August 12, 20178 yr Seby with 2 more hits as well...next year at age 24 in AA with be his make or break year as a prospect, but obviously looking really really good as a viable catching prospect right now
August 12, 20178 yr QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 12, 2017 -> 06:47 PM) It's to the point that 1-3 with a walk seems like a bad game Joked with a Cubs fan buddy of mine(who is a smart baseball fan) that it was his worst game with us so far. Actually might be true ha. Ps I agree with you on Blake.
August 13, 20178 yr Kopech is without question the best pitching prospect in baseball now. I thought he was going to tire out once he passed his previous innings high, but the kid has been insane these last few weeks. Edited August 13, 20178 yr by Chicago White Sox
August 13, 20178 yr Wow, at the games by Kopech and Jimenez. Zavala having a nice night too with another HR. Edit: Kopech threw 99 pitches with 66 strikes. Very nice! Edited August 13, 20178 yr by BlackSox13
August 13, 20178 yr Since Eloy has been in the organization I think him and Kopech have put up the best numbers of all time ha.
August 13, 20178 yr Eloy by far my favorite hitting prospect in quite some time. Love Kopech, but noone is touching Gio as my favorite pitching prospect of all time.
August 13, 20178 yr Author Jimenez with a 1.196 ops at Winston-Salem...Aaron Judge first half numbers. Or Frank Thomas coming out of Auburn. Edited August 13, 20178 yr by caulfield12
August 13, 20178 yr Second homer might be the best swing I've ever seen from a Sox prospect https://mobile.twitter.com/WSDashBaseball/s...0678145/video/1
August 13, 20178 yr QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Aug 12, 2017 -> 06:57 PM) Joked with a Cubs fan buddy of mine(who is a smart baseball fan) Huh? Does not compute...
August 13, 20178 yr I'm starting to think we see Eloy as a September call up next year. The way he is hitting is crazy. If he can come close to this level next year in AA, why not give him a few at-bats at the end of what is likely to be another bad White Sox season? What do we think the ETA on Kopech is? There's no rush, but there's a decent chance he'll be one of the five best starting pitchers in the organization come spring training next year.
