hogan873 Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 QUOTE (bmags @ Dec 8, 2016 -> 08:18 AM) Yep Covey is an odd pick, then. Realistically any chance he sticks around? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flavum Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Dec 8, 2016 -> 08:19 AM) Are you including guys like Moncada, Giolito, Lopez, etc? Those three are on the major league 40-man, so no. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChiSoxFanMike Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 Covey was pretty good in AA last year. Maybe the Sox see something in him that they can fix. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Covey looks like an interesting bullpen option to me. Let the kid air out that sinking fastball from the pen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Y2Jimmy0 Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 Dylan Covey pitched in the AFL this year after missing a lot of 2016: http://www.athleticsnation.com/2016/11/20/...ll-league-title Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthSideSox72 Posted December 8, 2016 Author Share Posted December 8, 2016 Sox lose no one. Draft only Covey. As it happens, one of our writers is also a writer for the Oakland Scout site, so she's talked with him, seen him pitch, has video, etc. She's doing a write up, we'll have it up on FS soon.

DirtySox Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 Daryl Van Schouwen @CST_soxvan 20s20 seconds ago Rick Hahn said Rule 5 pick Covey viewed as bullpen piece, or possible back end of starting rotation in 2017. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DirtySox Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 I really liked Covey as a draft prospect at the time. Would be neat to see him pan out in some way with the White Sox. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiSox59 Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 Seems like an interesting piece to me. His sinker looks pretty filthy in the link Y2J shared above. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully kid is a whiz with the glove, because that career .629 MiLB OPS isn't scaring anyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
