Always see him around in the dugout and on the field playing catch before games. Now I know. Edited June 29, 2017 by ChiSox59 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flavum Posted July 9, 2017 Share Posted July 9, 2017 Futures Game at 3pm on MLB Network. Kinda dumb they couldn't have negotiated this to be Sunday Night Baseball instead of Indians-Tigers. There should be 15 day games today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knightni Posted July 10, 2017 Share Posted July 10, 2017 Kopech was throwing GAS. Strikes out Moncada on four pitches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted July 10, 2017 Author Share Posted July 10, 2017 Two things I noticed that may or may not mean something... None of the pitches to Moncada were actually strikes until he swung. I really loved how quickly Kopech worked. Hopefully he works that fast all of the time. With a guy that throws that hard, it has to really get the adrenaline pumping, don't let the hitters relax at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicago White Sox Posted July 10, 2017 Share Posted July 10, 2017 QUOTE (knightni @ Jul 10, 2017 -> 09:21 AM) Kopech will probably be the closer next season at some point. I hope to god that isn't the case. Kopech should be given every opportunity to start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He will be. We have plenty of back end of the pen options. Kopech won't be one until he proves he cannot start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe even multiple failures at starting in AAA before that would happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
