GGajewski18 Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 So glad he had a bounce back year. Hope to see him up for good in 16 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted September 2, 2015 Author Share Posted September 2, 2015 Question for all of the prospect experts here... If Erik Johnson were still up for rookie status, where would he rate in the White Sox system rankings? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Sep 2, 2015 -> 08:05 PM) What would his 2014 numbers look like in this hypothetical? If we pretended 2014 never happened, he'd be #2 for me behind Anderson and barely in front of Fulmer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Balta1701 Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Sep 2, 2015 -> 04:11 PM) 2014 included. Top 10 but not top 5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthSideSox72 Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Sep 2, 2015 -> 03:14 PM) Top 10 but not top 5. I'd agree with that, though around 5 is possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Sep 2, 2015 -> 01:39 PM) I'd agree with that, though around 5 is possible. if I am ignoring everything and using FutureSox top 5 as my listing, I am absolutely ranking him ahead of Micah and Spencer Adams and consider ranking him ahead of Montas, primarily because I think Johnson has shown enough in 2015 (and in previous seasons) that probably of being an effective starter is higher vs. Montas who has the bulk of his upside in the pen. So I would say EJ (considering 2014) would be potentially 3rd, absolutely 4th. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 By the way, if I ignored 2014, he would be my #1 prospect. His minor league track record would be superior and he has the stuff to back it up (as the only year he didn't show the stuff was last year).
