cabiness42 Posted June 5, 2012 Share Posted June 5, 2012 What does Keith Law think? Dropping him 20 notches on his top prospect list as we speak. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macsandz Posted June 5, 2012 Share Posted June 5, 2012 If you can wait on Hawkins, he could payoff big. Still super raw right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted June 5, 2012 Share Posted June 5, 2012 I was cringing as he did that back flip. Like the fact that he'll have a plus outfield arm. Not sure if he can stay in CF, but I think Mitchell will be there, so hopefully that power continues to develop (obviously he's got good power now and it should only get better) and we see him in RF for a long time. The dude is strong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoxAce Posted June 5, 2012 Share Posted June 5, 2012 QUOTE (DirtySox @ Jun 4, 2012 -> 07:37 PM) Dude is a physical specimen. He will assuredly grow out of CF. Absolutely a future RF. Extremely, extremely raw, so people here are gonna have to be patient and can't stress this enough.. is only 18. Sox are definitely going pitcher with their next pick.

ShandyMan Posted June 5, 2012 Share Posted June 5, 2012 Churchill: Hawkins, blessed with plus bat speed and strength and good athleticism, has the upside of a 30-35 homer slugger. But he's rare in that he could also develop into .300 hitter who gets on base, drawing some comparisons to some of the better current outfielders in baseball, including Matt Kemp. He's an average runner, perhaps slightly above average, and he plays a good right field. Hawkins is a different type of player than what the White Sox have been on the past several years, but he may be their No. 1 prospect the second he puts pen to paper on a contract.

Capn12 Posted June 5, 2012 Share Posted June 5, 2012 I don't follow the amateur guys NEARLY as much, so I'm no expert, but I liked the guys skillset from the short clips, for sure. I like it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
