chitownsportsfan Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 (edited) QUOTE (Jerksticks @ Jul 21, 2014 -> 07:24 PM) I would be interested in clicking on a new Rodon thread at the top of PaleHose if it was there. Maybe the first post could continually update and add a line everytime he pitches, like a BR game log page, and then the discussion would be ongoing. I only mention this because he's a special prospect and I feel like some people probably don't enter many minor league game thread discussions. He's gonna be fun to keep tabs on even for those here who have little interest in our minors. For me, his starts are going to be must follow stuff and I totally agree with this. Wading through the game logs on Future Sox is fun, but when you have a top 10 in all of MLB shiny new prospect it behooves us to treat him a little differently and with more flair. It's been a long, long time since we had a prospect with this much hype in the system. Even Sale was kinda a novelty that just came out of nowhere, Rodon has been hyped for the last two years and he's now a Sox. edit: Last one I could think of was Chris Young, holy s*** he never panned out.

I remember all the butt hurt from the Sox trading Young instead of Anderson, but Young is a nothing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He started well with ARI but his career has totally fizzled out, nothing more than a 4th OF at this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
