[情報] 2011 MLB.com's Top 50 Prospects: No. 25 Chris Sale, LHP
Chris Sale, LHP
2010 Rank: NR
Drafted: 2009, 1st (13)
ETA in Majors: 2010
Statistically speaking:
Combining his brief Minor League stops and his time in the big leagues,
Sale gave up just 21 hits in 33 2/3 innings while striking out 51 and walking
16. He had a combined 2.14 ERA, a 13.7 K/9 ratio anda .178 batting
average against.
Scouting report:
Sale showed that he has big league-quality closer stuff, but he's also got
an arsenal that should put him in a rotation soon. As a starter, his fastball
was up to 94 mph in college; he gained a tick or two out of the pen.
It's got plenty of sinking movement to get ground balls. His changeup has a
chance to be a plus pitch, and his breaking ball looked sharp during his pro
debut. He's very mature and has outstanding mound presence. Very thin,
some were concerned about his durability coming out of the Draft.
Upside potential:
The White Sox want to develop him as a starter, and that's where he
should be. He has the chance to be at the top of the rotation in the future.
They said it: "He has lots of things to get better on for him to be a
starter. I mean, you are throwing 120 pitches per outing instead of 15. But
he has the makings of a good left-handed pitcher, and if the organization
said 'make Chris Sale a starter,' we roll up our sleeves and go to work." --
White Sox pitching coach Don Cooper
He said it: "During the season, I was always going, going, going, so I didn't
really get to sit down and think about what was going on. I never got time to
sit down and think about it. Now, it's like, 'Man, what a ride!' It was fun,
I really enjoyed it. " -- at the Rookie Career Development Program, about his
quick ascent to Chicago
