DirtySox Posted July 5, 2018 Share Posted July 5, 2018 From Law Chat today. Michael 2:08 After Eloy and Robert, which White Sox outfield prospect do you like the most going forward? Keith Law 2:08 Adolfo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DirtySox Posted July 5, 2018 Share Posted July 5, 2018 More Law Chat. Jeff 2:16 I know he's old for his level (high-A), but is Laz Rivera a potential diamond in the rough for CWS? Keith Law 2:17 Saw him for about 8 AB too. Three horrendous strikeouts to start it out - totally overmatched by a LHP with some deception - but I saw him hit a (Laz) rocket out the second game. Probably worth bumping him to AA, since he's 23, to get a better test of his abilities. I doubt he's really that much of a prospect, but he does have bat speed and obviously more hand strength than I first realized. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DirtySox Posted July 5, 2018 Share Posted July 5, 2018 Longenhagen Chat today: AJ 2:31 Hi Eric. Assuming Madrigal is moved quickly, what position does Moncada ultimately move to? CF? Thanks Eric A Longenhagen 2:31 That's what I'd expect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just my meaningless opinion, but if Moncada isn’t the White Sox 2B, he isn’t on the White Sox anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why? If Madrigal can give you gold glove defense at 2B and Moncada can move seamlessly to CF (remains to be seen obviously) that seems like a win win solution all around.

Sleepy Harold Posted July 5, 2018 Share Posted July 5, 2018 I guess this would explain for his placement on the temp inactive list last week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jose Abreu Posted July 5, 2018 Share Posted July 5, 2018 Interesting. I'm glad as I didn't think his stuff would transfer for us. Maybe he's pulling a Miles Mikolas but he's older so I doubt it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don’t see Moncada transitioning to a good outfielder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
he gone. Posted July 5, 2018 Share Posted July 5, 2018 Interesting move on Roach. I've never seen him pitch a single pitch, but seemed like his numbers were strong this year. Surprised we didn't at least give him a shot when he got this offer. I'd like to have seen him pitch 2-3 outings in the majors just in case, then let him go to Japan.

southsider2k5 Posted July 5, 2018 Author Share Posted July 5, 2018 What that tells me is that if someone like Giolito needed to go down, Roach would NOT have been the next guy up. If he had, I am sure he would have stuck around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hard to believe Moncada a) wants to move positions at all b) is going to be better than Robert at playin CF. That is assuming Robert can play for more than 3 weeks withou getting hurt.

DirtySox Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 Maybe this shouldn't be posted here, but does anyone perhaps know when Kopech's next start is/should be? I'm going to be in Durham visiting my girlfriend from Friday to Sunday, and would love to catch him going in the CHA/DUR series. Is Friday correct? Any insight is appreciated.
