GSUeagles14 Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 Acuna is still only 19 years old, hes seen three different levels this year alone and is in triple A now. With that said... hes increased his walk rate at every level, decreased his strikeouts, and has hit for more and more power as hes advanced through the system. A+ - wRC 134 AA - wRC 158 AAA - wRC 182 Absolutely absurd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid's an elite prospect. That was a fantastic AA debut. But man do I hate this term, and I don't know why. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I don't know why I used it honestly haha. Usually would say dealing but I wanted to add a little oomph to it. Before people think I'm like 15... I'm 26.

THE DUKE Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 (edited) And I got questioned for calling Whitley a top 25 guy a couple months back. Senzel - 5 to 8 range Whitley - 14 to18 range Bichette - 20 to 25 range And the phrase shoving has been around a long time in regards to pitching. I remember hearing it back in the 90's on national broadcasts. Edited August 18, 2017 by THE DUKE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
playmaker8267 Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 Lucas Giolito gets the ball for the White Sox on Monday. Kopech will take his spot in AAA. The ole double promotion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAS22 Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 My obvious bias here but I think Whitley's advanced pitchability puts him near or at the top of the SP prospect lists. I, for one, did not think he was this far along in regards to his pitch mix and command. His change up is devastating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
