Michael Kopech

White Sox prospect Michael Kopech reached number 19 on the MLB Pipeline Prospects list at the start of the 2019 season. As a product of the 2014 draft, Kopech garnered significant interest after throwing a 105 mph pitch with the Wilmington Blue Rocks in 2016. Kopech made his debut in August of 2018, fanning four in two innings before a rain delay prematurely ended the start. He is sidelined for 2019 recovering from Tommy John surgery.
