NorthSideSox72 Posted November 25, 2015 Share Posted November 25, 2015 Our own Kim Contreras was in attendance for quite a few of the AFL games, and got to take in the action from up close as well as speak to some scouts and players. Here is her recap of how the 9 White Sox prospects looked and performed in the AFL. What are people's thoughts on the players there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What are people's thoughts on the players there? overall i was ok-really happy for some of the sox players like engel and peters. but in the hitting i was disappointed in trey and delmonico pitching brennan, tago more than held their onw. wheeler and leyer with a total of 6 innings or less were ok. and wendelken really had a terrible afl. but this is but another stop in getting better. baby step great job to all as usual.

Dick Allen Posted November 25, 2015 Share Posted November 25, 2015 It would be nice if Engel made himself a future contributor. He has so many tools. If he can put it together, it would be amazing. I hope Trey makes it for a couple of reasons. The White Sox really need a 3B, and secondly, those buying his jersey would really get a good bang for their buck with all the letters in his last name.

Sample size is key here. Wendelken pitched just four times. Trey only played in 10 games. Heck, even the guys who started only got somewhere close to 100 PA.

No. JB left the AFL because he was added to the US National Team for the Premier 12 tournament in Asia (along with OF Jacob May), as noted in the article. It wasn't about his very brief performance in Arizona. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
