Rick Renteria understands fans who saw White Sox prospect Michael Kopech strike out five Cubs batters in two innings Friday might already be itching to see him at Guaranteed Rate Field this season.
But the Sox manager also knows it’s his duty this spring to put the brakes on such accelerated dreams for a pitcher who’s headed to High A or Double A when the club breaks camp.
“My desire is for people to not grow too impatient because they see the stuff we see over the spring,” Renteria said Saturday.
