GLENDALE, Ariz. — These will be memorable days in the life of Oscar Colas, the White Sox’ prized outfield prospect. He has played almost every day in spring training as he tries to win the Opening Day right-field job, and from most indications, he’s well on his way.
Colas has made a fine impression, batting .300/.317/.475 with two home runs in a team-high 17 Cactus League games while learning every day how the speed of the major-league game is different. His confidence level “is 100% high,” he said. And in September, his wife is expected to deliver the couple’s first child, a boy.
