May 10, 201312 yr Next up in our series of FS Prospect Interviews is Erik Johnson, who we are tenatively scheduled to talk with next week. So... what questions would you ask Erik? We'll take some ideas from here to add to our own questions, hopefully. Let's hear 'em.
May 10, 201312 yr Did you spell your name with a K because you knew you were going to be a strikeout pitcher?
May 10, 201312 yr Author QUOTE (witesoxfan @ May 10, 2013 -> 10:35 AM) Did you spell your name with a K because you knew you were going to be a strikeout pitcher? I think it is because it makes him sound like a Viking.
May 10, 201312 yr -What was the biggest change you had to make after you came into professional baseball? -What changes have the White Sox coaching staff made in you as a pitcher?
May 10, 201312 yr What is one the consistent, overriding goal or system that the White Sox organization wants to impart on all its young pitchers? Which pitching coach or coach/manager has had the biggest impact on making you the prospect you are today? Why do you feel so many of our talented minor league outfielders are struggling so mightily (just joking)? How is your change-up coming along? Who's the best player you've come up against so far in the Southern League? Do you feel the new stadium is hitter or pitcher-friendly? What has been the biggest adjustment going from A ball to AA that you've had to overcome? Edited May 10, 201312 yr by caulfield12
May 10, 201312 yr How much, if any, have you gotten to interact and learn from one of the best pitching coaches in baseball, Don Cooper?
May 11, 201312 yr QUOTE (witesoxfan @ May 10, 2013 -> 10:35 AM) Did you spell your name with a K because you knew you were going to be a strikeout pitcher? It's a shame that this was the first reply because nothing can match that. None of the other questions are worth asking in comparison.
May 11, 201312 yr Have you heard of SoxTalk? Do you ever finding yourself reading comments about you on message boards, lol? Is Cal-Berkeley as difficult as its reputation? What was your major? If you weren't playing baseball, what would you be doing career-wise? If you could describe yourself as a car, what type of car would you be? Edited May 11, 201312 yr by caulfield12
