Why would this be any different than say 2 weeks ago when he was added to the 40 man? I've got 2 guesses. Adding someone in the rule 5 draft and using many teams having full rosters as a way to move the guy through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, can an injured player even be drafted in Rule 5? I'm 99% sure that Burr couldnt even be drafted in Rule 5 if he was out all of next year. He wouldn't have the active days required to remain with that team. Edited November 26, 2019 by Look at Ray Ray Run Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Donny Lucy's Avocado Farm Posted November 26, 2019 Share Posted November 26, 2019 * eyeball emojis * Something's coming guys!!! AAAA reliever who just had TJS gets removed from the roster. I'm sure there's a meme to be had here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raBBit Posted November 26, 2019 Share Posted November 26, 2019 Sox didn't decided to release Burr today. I feel like if it were truly nothing they would go public with it right away. Just my 2 cents. 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As bad as the rule 5 pool has become, rehabbing an injury is probably your best bet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a White Sox message board. I hear some things from time to time, and share them when I can, or when I think it's appropriate. The mods can tell you there have been a number of things I've shared that haven't been for total public consumption because I didn't have it firm, or for a number of other reasons. The point is I try and share stuff when I have it. No one here should care about credit being received or public standing. Unless you're trying to do this for a career, it just doesn't matter. You are Tony Bernazard. Confirmed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HOFHurt35 Posted November 26, 2019 Share Posted November 26, 2019 Outside of all the dumb ass speculating, I do find it odd that there hasn't been a Yazmani Grandal intro press conference yet. Not many "record breaking" signings in this team's history to not have one. Maybe waiting for a second big fish to land. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I specifically meant the White Sox opening roster spots before the rule 5 draft happens so that they'd have a chance to use their pick.

Maybe a little more than the first group. 3rd tier Foster, Flores............probably will not be much but should be safe. I think Frare and definitely Hamilton are quite a bit more safe than you suggest. Vieira, Medeiros, Zavala, Covey, Fulmer are probably the least safe.

An organization looking for all the media spotlight they can get would not combine 2 events in one. Lawyers are probably still crossing t's and dotting i's.
