Here's your daily update on what the White Sox highly touted prospects are doing in the minor leagues.
Triple-A Charlotte
The news of the day was Michael Kopech's dominant regular-season debut for the Knights, who beat the Norfolk Tides on Monday night. Kopech, who had an up-and-down spring with the White Sox and finished Cactus League play with an ERA north of 11.00, struck out eight hitters in his four shutout innings Monday, allowing two hits and walking two batters. Not bad for just his fourth start at the Triple-A level.
Class A Winston-Salem
Kopech wasn't the only White Sox prospect with a big day, though. Outfielders Blake Rutherford and Micker Adolfo combined for five hits in Winston-Salem's win over Myrtle Beach. Rutherford went 3-for-4 with a double, two RBIs and a run scored. Adolfo was 2-for-4 with a double and an RBI. Luis Alexander Basabe also had two hits, and Gavin Sheets had a hit, as well.
Double-A Birmingham
Eyes continue to be on the catchers at Birmingham, where both Zack Collins and Seby Zavala are playing. Collins was 1-for-4 on Monday with a run scored as the designated hitter, while Zavala went hitless but drew a walk.

Class A Kannapolis
In more catching news, Evan Skoug had a two-hit day for Kannapolis, though he also did it as the designated hitter.
