After an unbelievable showing by Michael Kopech in the Arizona Fall League, President of Baseball Operations Dave Dombrowski told MassLive.com that he will be a starter in Double A in 2017.
“Triple A is very important, too; I just think when you have talented, extremely talented players, that they have a chance to move quickly through an organization,” Dombrowski told MassLive.com at the GM Meetings. “And I have seen pitchers and positional players both be successful going from Double A (to the majors).”
If you haven’t heard of Kopech yet, now is the time to take a look at him.
