July 25, 20232 yr https://www.mlb.com/prospects/stats/affiliates?teamId=145&date=07/25/2023 https://www.milb.com/scores/all/all/whitesox Draftees appearing so some more interest and we can over react to small sample sizes! Nah just good to see new blood and the return of a sliver of hope.
July 25, 20232 yr Jeremy Gonzalez possibly injured but nonetheless an awful outing where he lets 4 straight batters up and all 4 touch the plate before he leaves. Javier Mogollon with a homer, excellent season for him. Great BB rate, sub 20% k rate, and a decent iso for DSL probably closer to .180 at end of this game. 3 homers!

On the position player side, you'd imagine Mogollon, Alsinois, Nunez, and Stiven Flores are all probably headed to the States next year. Always hard to say with pitching, but they have some guys worth watching.

Always hard to say with pitching, but they have some guys worth watching. I have liked for the most part how they have pretty much dumped everyone into ACL the next year worthy or not. GIves more room for DSL classes, and you have the extra month now with the draft to see what the players have and can always just put them in extended spring training. I know his average is bad but I think Rafael Alvarez has had a pretty interesting first year. He's 18, and with his size you'd expect more power, but he's gotten on base a lot and had some extra base hits. You could see him adding 20 LBs and maybe finding an interesting profile.
July 25, 20232 yr Cousin going for W-S tonight. Loopy breaking ball is his best pitch so far. Doubt that's gonna work at higher levels, but who knows. Dash up 1-0.
July 25, 20232 yr X is continuing to put up video game numbers for Bham in July, hits his 4th HR of the week. Cousin turned in a nice line for WS: 5IP, 1ER, 2H 5K, 1BB. The run was on a solo shot.
July 26, 20232 yr Popeye stayed down for a while after a collision at 2B on a steal attempt. He appears to have shaken it off and is staying in the game. He looked okay running 2B to home on the next play, so hopefully it's no big deal.
July 26, 20232 yr The amount of garbage FA or low-bonus arms all over the Sox system is really something. I don't know if it's their draft strategy or continuing effects from the five round draft but every level is thin. W-S gave up 10 runs as soon as they went to the pen. Tommy Sommer was okay in A ball because people would swing at his change way out of the zone. In AA, they won't do it, so he's getting bombed. Hopefully, they're doing something to address pitching development in the offseason.

July 26, 20232 yr Every affiliate is going to lose tonight. Again. Strange line for Kelley in relief so far 3IP 2H 1R 1ER 4bb 6K 1HBP. Effectively wild?
July 26, 20232 yr Author All losses! Including the big club, a -30 run differential on the night. I am in the penalty box. Someone else do tomorrow’s games.
