Heads22 Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 FutureSox Interview: Kanekoa Texeira By FutureSox Staff Kanekoa Texeira was just a 22nd round draft pick for the White Sox in the 2006 draft. Although it was the second time he was drafted (2004 – 31st Round – Milwaukee), he didn’t gather any headlines. The native Hawaiian has since been on fire since joining the system, going 1-2 with a 1.54 ERA between Bristol and Kannapolis, as well as having the special distinction of having the best slider in the organization as rated by Baseball America. Kanekoa took some time to sit down with FutureSox.com to answer some questions....MORE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Felix Posted April 14, 2007 Share Posted April 14, 2007 He related to Mark Teixeira? (although I suppose the name is spelled different) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BearSox Posted April 14, 2007 Share Posted April 14, 2007 Favorite Athlete growing up: Michael Jordan.... He should fit in right with Chicago, when he hopefully makes it to the show with the Sox! Also, he is said to have the best slider in the org... correct? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Tizzle Posted April 14, 2007 Share Posted April 14, 2007 QUOTE(BearSox @ Apr 13, 2007 -> 09:45 PM) Also, he is said to have the best slider in the org... correct? According to Phil Rogers' analysis of the White Sox organization for Baseball America. Which I suppose suggests either it's extremely filthy, or someone responsible for compiling the names for different categories forget Dewon Day.
