Don Cooper was the one who had to teach Chris Sale to not try and strikeout every batter that came to the plate and too try and pitch into weak contact to get more ground balls and to go deeper into baseball games. He warned Chris Sale that if he relied on his slider too much it would put wear and tear on his arm.

I love Coop. No nonsense guy that knows his shit. Has turned more careers around then u can imagine. Funny is that he has been in a Sox uniform since Ozzie was manager. Goes to show u how good he is.

@@iangaz739 John Garland, Jose Contreras, Estaban Loiza, Freddy Garcia, Bobby Jenks, Jose Quintana. Helped develop Mark Buehrle and Chris Sale. Aaron Bummer and most recently has helped change Lucas Giolito into an All Star. The List goes on. I would bet money That he helps Kuechel become a better player than what people will expect. He has changed alot of peoples careers around and former All Star pitchers who have down years have been quoted saying they came to the White Sox to work with Don Cooper and many have showed positive results. Like David Robertson and others. White Sox have never had a problem developing pitching. That is something the Cubs have never been able to do

When their have been hundreds of reports that he did and pitchers on interview giving him credit. your hilarious 😂 you sound like a salty cubs fan. I would be too if i was a Cubs fan and had to watch what Eloy Jimenez and Luis Robert are doing for the White Sox

They cant hit on every prospect. They have had good luck with the Prospects they traded for. I think Giolito and Dylan Cease will be All star caliber and if Kopech comes back the same. He looks like a cant miss. I think if Rodon stays healthy he will be a pretty damn good pitcher to have as a 4th or 5th starter. Also have to remember they have Kuechel, Dane Dunning etc. Still have the cap space to make a run in FA. it would be nice if Carson Fulmer could develop into a nice bullpen arm like Andrew Miller who was a high drafted player. Fulmer is looking good so far this sping and as someone already said he still is a young player
@chitownhype5727 4 жыл бұрын
Giolito, Cease, Kopech, Lopez, Rodon, Keuchel, Dunning, Steiver, They have pitchers they recently drafted that can still develop into studs. Plus future Free agents they could look at if they have too. They really dont need Fulmer at this point but it would be a nice suprise if he breaks out as a bullpen arm.

The White sox still need a new pitching coach Don Cooper is done.
@chitownhype5727 4 жыл бұрын
😂 yeah because the White Sox have really struggled with developing pitching. Chris sale is the Ace of the Redsox, Quintana is the cubs best pitcher at this point. Giolito is an All Star. Aaron Bummer is one of the best bullpen arms in the game. White Sox fans would agree that Don cooper is doing a fine job. If it wasnt for him Developing Chris Sale and Jose Quintana. The White Sox would not have Yoan Moncada, Eloy Jimenez, Michael Kopech or Dylan Cease. The White Sox have always drafted well with pitching too and found diamonds in the ruff with pitchers like Quintana was Rule 5 you can give credit too Don Cooper for that also

Thank god Coop adapted. It was a struggle for our guys because he was too stubborn to adapt to the times. Hell Giolito had to go to his high school coach to get right. Glad he's finally trying to learn the new technology out there now.

Cooper should have been fired years ago...his pitchers get worse unless they go back to their high school coach for help!
