flavum Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 http://www.milb.com/scoreboard/index.jsp?c...mp;ymd=20160517 Beck starting tonight. Fair shot at pitching vs Cleveland next Monday if he has another good start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Beck would have gone 6-7 strong, that probably would have gotten him the call. We'll see what they do with the order now that it's six days out. Hopefully they can get a split that day and win the other two games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorthSideSox72 Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 QUOTE (Dunt @ May 17, 2016 -> 07:26 PM) Zach Thompson a spec to watch? Maybe. Tall frame, OH gets nice downhill plane, fastball runs to mid-90s with some movement. Offspeeds are all works in progress. Messed with a splitter for a while, not sure he still uses it though. Slider supposedly looked good in spring camp. Probably a reliever profile, but he's worth keeping an eye on. He's repeated Kanny, but not too old yet.

maxjusttyped Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 Tim Anderson is the best SS in the organization right now. The question is would calling him up soon have a negative impact on his development. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 Tim Anderson won't be heading to Chicago until September 1st unless something dramatic has happened with Rollins/Saladino/Sanchez. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
royoung Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 http://www.chicagonow.com/future-sox/2016/...ne-hit-innings/ recap posted. Nice games from Anderson, Narvaez, Peter, and Thompson. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Sir Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 Tim Anderson has walked five times in 35 games. With limited power, does anyone think he can come up here and put up even a .700+ OPS? How's his defense progressed? I know that used to be a weakness, and with all those things combined, it just doesn't seem like he'd be a high WAR player in MLB. There's too many red flags for me personally to be that high on him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigsoxhurt35 Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 Is Adolfo any closer to returning? Kanny comes to Charleston beginning of June. I'd like to see him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know that used to be a weakness, and with all those things combined, it just doesn't seem like he'd be a high WAR player in MLB. There's too many red flags for me personally to be that high on him. He's walked 5 times in 16 games. Walked none before that. Same pattern last year in BHAM, raised his walk rate from zero, slowly, to about 7% in August. His defense progressed a lot last year, but he does still need reps. But the actions say he's capable of being probably better than average at short with time. He's never going to walk a ton, but more importantly, he does adapt and become more selective with time at the level. He's clearly #1 in the system, and I have pretty high confidence he'll be at least an average overall SS in the majors. Not guaranteed of course, but I'd bet the over.

No word I've seen or heard yet, but I will ask around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
