Sleepy Harold Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 Katz has Kopech, Cease, and Lopez on throwing programs already. Seemed very enthusiastic about working with Cease and getting him right. 4 3 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seemed very enthusiastic about working with Cease and getting him right. Yes, loved the interview, his approach and the fact that he has had numerous conversations with many of the key pitchers. He didn't want to give too much details on individual work, which would be premature, but loved his answers and think the White Sox can see significant improvements from at least a few pitchers. He did offer that he saw a few specifics with the video Lopez sent, and is working on things remotely with him in the DR. Offered his philosophy in terms of the physical (arm slotting / lower body) coupled with analytics. Very encouraging. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maloney.adam Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 (edited) Sounds like Cease and Kopech are going to be the #4 and #5 starters unless Kopech starts in the minors but he sounded very excited when asked about Kopech. Wasn’t asked about Dunning. Edited December 3, 2020 by maloney.adam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely should start the year in the minors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who is going to be the #3 starter than, assuming Cease and Dunning is #4 and #5? I guess that’s where we have to fill in the blank with a trade or through free agency.

If that’s the case than Dunning and Kopech will probably start in the minors than. Edited December 3, 2020 by maloney.adam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's coach-speak. If he improves on his curve and uses it more....he can be the best pitcher in baseball. So I hope Katz can unlock it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Yeah, Lucas is about as good as he'll ever be ..."? It's coach-speak. Well from the interview he did say that he can possibly help him get to the next level from where he is right now. That’s mostly what I what I was referring to but yeah I understand it’s the coach speaking. Edited December 3, 2020 by maloney.adam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mmmmmbeeer Posted December 4, 2020 Share Posted December 4, 2020 Solid interview. He seems both very humble and coy. Seemed especially excited about what he can do with Dylan. I got the sense he was given a mandate from Rick because he seemed very nonplussed by working with Larussa or having to fit in with Larussa's strategies.
