Chicago White Sox Posted Friday at 09:24 PM Share Posted Friday at 09:24 PM 1 hour ago, Jake said: To be fair, low fastball velo has always been part of the scouting report for Thorpe even though some had wondered if he had more in the tank. I don't know how far off his norms he was in terms of velocity. I do think it's reasonable to think that his poor command in MLB might have had to do with his elbow. Of course we'll get to find out more about what he can do before too long. His velocity was apparently down a couple ticks with us in the minors vs. what it was in his final season with the Yankees when he was Minor League pitcher of the year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And then when he's done, they reassign him to minor league camp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'd be about 5 months younger than Colson was for his Kanny debut, but Colson got to play in rookie ball after the draft. Sucks that draft year rookie ball reps just isn't an option anymore. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Name the last White Sox position player drafted from high school who debuted the next season in High A???? I dare you. Especially ones with questions about eventual big league hitting ability.

caulfield12 Posted 22 hours ago Share Posted 22 hours ago (edited) Yeah cute how he's not currently in high school. Fine I misread that someone wanted him in Winston Salem because a number of posters wanted Braden Anderson moved up all the way to Chicago last year. First round draft picks from high school level 90-95% of time are in low A the following year. Edited 22 hours ago by caulfield12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Certainly a ”hot takel" around here is that a #10 drafted high schooler is on his way to Low A ball...and not AZ Complex ball. You'd be hard pressed to find many that weren't so similarly advanced, except players who were hurt their draft year or signed really really late. If it was such a pressing issue to big league teams, they wouldn't have dumped so many rookie league and A level minor league teams, me thinks.
