Wow. I had no idea his reputation. Sounds like a cool dude.

I have no idea who your source is, but considering the fact that pitching is the only thing the Sox have developed to any extent in the last five years, I'd say he is dead wrong on Kirk, and that would make me question any other part of his opinion.

I agree with this statement, the Sox have had some success with developing pitchers as of late. Developing hitters is an altogether different story.

MLB.com's Jonathan Mayo has his Top 100 Prospect List out.
http://mlb.mlb.com/mlb/prospects/watch/y2012/ White Sox have 1 prospect on it. Coming in at the last spot, #100, Addison Reed. |

When you give them one season in the minors to acclimate to pro pitching you are setting them up to fail.

If a player is able to maintain dominance with each successive promotion, I don't see how this is setting them up to fail. Players physical abilities and mental makeup determine their fate, there is no perfect scheme for getting pitchers to the majors. If there was, every team would do that exact pattern.

Low risk indeed, but he's also a huge head case. Carlos Zambrano bad.

Laumann and Paddy are heading to the DR to scout players for the upcoming signing period (with the new CBA restrictions), starting July 2nd. Also notes that Cespedes is likely too expensive, but the White Sox are interested in Concepcion and Soler. Soler would be a huge get.

Keith Law's farm system rankings are up. (Keith Law sucks, yes I know.) White Sox are last, and he says it's not even close. Not that it's a surprise at this point.

I am not shocked, but I guess a little surprised that those two (now number 2 and 3, respectively in SOX farm) didn't boost the farm even a tad. I guess it just shows how absolutely terrible it was going into this offseason. |
