southsider2k5 Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 Winston-Salem Dash @WSDashBaseball 18m #WhiteSox top prospect Courtney Hawkins left the game in the 4th after a great diving catch to end the 3rd. Left the field on his own power. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 At least someone in our organization can play some defense, besides Alexei Ramirez. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiliIrishHammock24 Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 Hawkins, or Jared Mitchell? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ May 1, 2013 -> 06:39 PM) Hawkins, or Jared Mitchell? Both...although Mitchell's arm is weak. And Thompson can play some D as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, I was responding to the thread title, bringing up how our last promising top OF prospect also hurt himself making an awesome catch (or maybe attempting, I can't remember if Mitchell caught it).

NorthSideSox72 Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 There are quite a few prospects in the org noted for defense. Anyway, W-S is saying Hawkins is day-to-day, but they won't get into further detail just now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that was including Jordan Danks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 http://www.journalnow.com/sports/dash_base...19bb30f31a.html How can the Winston-Salem newspaper have an article about the game and not mention an injury to the most important prospect in the White Sox system? Must not be that serious it didn't even merit a mention in the game story. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that was including Jordan Danks. Sorry, were we just talking outfielders? Thompson and JorDanks definitely considered plus out there. Mitchell has gotten good reviews for range and glove, but not arm. Walker apparently also has big range and a good glove, and a better arm than Mitchell, but Walker doesn't have the route instincts yet (or didn't last I read anything about him - could have changed by now). Hawkins is raw of course. Haddow is supposedly a solid glove and a plus arm. That's about it for OF guys I know of, defensively. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Donny Lucy's Avocado Farm Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 Maybe this injury will cause him to have limited range-of-motion in his left shoulder and subsequently, fix the huge ass hitch in his swing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flavum Posted May 25, 2013 Share Posted May 25, 2013 Hawkins should be back at Winston-Salem in about 10 days. He's going to Arizona next week, per Buddy Bell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
