2021 South Side Sox Top Prospect No. 40: Isaiah Carranza

Right-Handed Starting Pitcher
6´5´´
180 pounds
Age: 24
SSS rank among all right-handed starting pitchers in the system: 10

Perhaps the most enigmatic prospect in the entire White Sox system is Isaiah Carranza, drafted in the 12th round in 2018 but yet to have thrown a single professional pitch. Yes, injury and pandemic have prevented this high-ceiling arm from showing anything as of yet.

But wow, is there upside. Beyond his 6´5´´ frame, Carranza has an uncommon touch with his pitches, displaying great control while also flashing big-K ability.

While pitching for Division II Azusa Pacific in 2018, Carranza went 9-1 in 13 starts, with two complete games.
