Heads22 Posted April 7, 2007 Share Posted April 7, 2007 Second baseman is FutureSox’s #20 prospect By FutureSox Staff Having the rare distinction of being drafted twice by the White Sox, Chris Getz was obviously being looked at as a high priority prospect by the Sox organization. Getz was the fourth round pick of the Sox in 2005, and he now starts in the infield of the Birmingham Barons. Chris sat down with FutureSox.com and answered questions submitted by Sox fans.

BearSox Posted April 7, 2007 Share Posted April 7, 2007 Even as a minor league player, do you find the women are still impressed that you play for a team within the White Sox organization? I would say that some women are interested because of that, but those are the ones you want to stay away from. Think about it. A girl who is attracted to a minor league baseball player because of that – something’s not right. Haha, so true... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dasox24 Posted April 7, 2007 Share Posted April 7, 2007 Hey, great job. I love interviews w/ our minor league guys. This may sound dumb, but what's a "leaner?" He referred to this in the the "best prank pulled" question. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Tizzle Posted April 7, 2007 Share Posted April 7, 2007 Favorite Song: Hollywood Nights- Bob Seger Great selection. I'm surprised Chris responded so quickly. Good to see he is atleast honest when answering quesitons; ideally the last and whether he is a Tigers fan. It'll be interesting to see what Getz' future within this organization is if Iguchi is signed longterm after the season concludes. If this were to occur, maybe it wouldn't be a bad idea for him to try and field several other infield positions. He'd be up in 2009 as a UTL INF, without question.

He was prompt, and replied back to me saying he didnt get the questions the first time, and he even told me I had the wrong picture up on FS....he sure seems nice enough.

He really impressed in his debut at Kanny and than struggled in AA and initially you would say eh not a prospect but you got to remind yourselves that he made a big jump and had a lot on his shoulders as one of the clubs few quality positional prospects. He now has a full season under his belt and plenty of time to get acclimated and I really believe he's prime for a break-out year. He's too good fundamentally to struggle and all of those quality tools will get him on a major league roster for some time (he'll never make an all star game, but he's a good guy to have).

witesoxfan Posted April 8, 2007 Share Posted April 8, 2007 I await the day a picture of Getz comes out with a Tigers hat on and the "Getz to the Tigers?" talk takes over Soxtalk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
