At 6’7 and 239 pounds, 18-year-old White Sox prospect George Wolkow could have pursued football or basketball if he wanted to. He is big and athletic enough to play whatever sport he wants. But Wolkow chose baseball, and his decision is already paying dividends. He hit two home runs last night and is just starting to scratch the surface of his star potential.
Wolkow’s Background
The White Sox drafted Wolkow in the seventh round from Downers Grove North High School last year.
