    Wouldn't Pham be taking Leone's 40 man spot in that scenario?   I believe Clevinger in starting in AAA this weekend (maybe even today). 

    Yeah he would be, but I was thinking if they still wanted an arm and if they were sending down Fletcher.

    We'll just see what they do because it could be as simple as DFAing Grossman ha the 40-man relievers I looked at (that are even eligible to be called up) aren't doing too good haha

    I doubt Sox will go a pitcher short and a 5-man bench. Still could play 60-day IL games with Davis Martin, if they wanted to burn the service time. 

    Well, sending Fletcher down and DFAing Leone would mean they could call up a reliever on the 40-man. That's the angle I was going for. Unless a guy like Clevinger could make a start tomorrow but I have not followed him at all.

    I think he'll be up tomorrow.  They've already said he's playing in AAA today.  I am sure he'll handshake away the optout for a day.

    Mentioned this in the fresh blood thread, but with Fletcher sitting 2 straight days against RHP and Pham playing CF in AAA, I actually would put my money on the Sox sending Fletcher down and keeping all the vets.  Would have to find the 40 man space for Pham somewhere other than Pillar or Grossman tho, which could get interesting. Watch the Sox DFA Sosa to keep all these washed vets. 

    Seems like Fletcher then. Wouldn't mind Vaughn going down either.

    Just don't know who the 40-man move would be.

    Edit: wait, we still have Dominic Leone? Our BP is currently 9 deep so maybe this is the easy DFA.

    Intentional, so Pham could move on to another team if the Sox didn’t call him up quickly, rather than be stuck in AAA with the Sox.  But it’s not like Pham was hitting much in AAA.  Maybe they go with him anyways because of his success last season and the fact that Grossman has been absolutely terrible.

    Either way, Getz is looking pathetic with all this roster scrambling.  Dude, it’s over.  Accept it.  You are setting records.

    Whether you win 40 games or 50 games, it's still a shitty season.

    Does anyone know the White Sox record for being shut out in a season?  I believe 33 (being the worst of all time)is the cardinals record

    Idk but I'm rooting for it. If they're going to be this level of bad, let's see some history.

    It was a great career, Jose, but what's up this season?

    He's still under contract for next year at 19.5M, but if he keeps this up he might wind up in DFA territory. Father time always wins.

    Yeah I think once a contract is less than 2 years, you can start to justify DFAing him. 

    At least that's what I've been saying to myself about Benintendi lol that you're stuck with him until about June/July Year 4 of his deal.
