White Sox prospect shows off ridiculous arm with 110 mph max velocity throw

It's quite understandable for White Sox fans to still be upset about Chris Sale being traded.

Over the past five seasons, he's been the team's brightest start and when he was on the mound, it was must watch baseball.

Now Sale is off the greener pastures in Boston after being traded, though, and White Sox fans are just going to have to accept that fact and move on, which obviously is easier said than done.

That being said, it might be easier to move on after watching this video of Michael Kopech, a prospect the Sox got in return in the Sale trade, display his incredible arm with a 110 mph max velocity throw.

Just your average 110 from Chicago White Sox prospect Michael Kopech. pic.twitter.com/qEAjuXXRU6

Insane, even if it was with an underload baseball, which Kopech confirmed after seeing the video.

@RyanSawyer_ @teamAPEC underload. Week one.

Still, 110 is 110, which is absolutely ridiculous, but not really surprising considering Kopech was clocked at 105 mph last summer when he was pitching for Salem.

So, White Sox fans, you may have lost one of the best pitchers in baseball, but you've got the number four right-handed pitching prospect in baseball, and he throws heat.
