Blake Larson has made his debut on the South Side Sox Top 100 Prospects list, but his journey is already clouded by injury concerns. As a left-handed pitcher with a promising skill set, including a mid-90s fastball and a devastating slider, Larson was expected to be a key player in the White Sox's future. However, the forearm soreness he’s currently dealing with raises questions about his long-term viability and the White Sox's ability to develop pitching talent.
What do you think this means for Larson's future? Can he bounce back from this injury and fulfill the potential that made him a second-round pick? The White Sox have struggled with player development in recent years, particularly with pitchers. Is Larson just another name on a long list of prospects who didn’t pan out, or could he be the exception to the rule?
Moreover, how do you feel about the White Sox's strategy of targeting funky lefties like Larson? Is this approach a smart way to find hidden gems, or does it risk overlooking more traditional talent?
Let’s also talk about the broader implications for the White Sox's pitching staff. With Larson's injury, who do you think should step up in the minor leagues? Are there any other prospects you believe could make an impact sooner than expected?
