Nothing official, but not every guy deserves their own thread.

 

Jason Bourgeois re-signed.

 

The Sox signed lefty pitcher Cory Luebke, and catcher Carson Blair.

 

Other non-rosters:

C Geovany Soto

UTL Cody Asche

LP Matt Purke

RP Blake Smith

IF Everth Cabrera

 

I'm sure other guys with major league experience will get added, plus guys like Burdi and Collins from the system.

Aaron Bummer is new name for me. I wouldn't consider myself a minor league expert, but I follow boxscores and the Sox top prospects, and not sure I've even seen that name before.

Agreed on Bummer. If I ever knew his name, I forgot it. He's a lefty.

 

59 in camp as of now.

 

32 pitchers (11 lefties)

6 catchers

11 infielders

10 outfielders (Asche and Leury listed as OF)

Bummer has been injured a lot. He was an overslot 19th rounder a few years back. Throws really hard

Those are surprises for me.

Fry is a mild surprise coming back from TJS. Bummer is a guy who throws really hard left-handed, missed some time to a surgery and injuries, got an overslot bonus in the 19th round - so a mild surpise.

 

The other guys I figured on. Delmonico has a legit shot at the team. Hayes was near a call-up last year before he got hurt. Clark is a legit prospect.

Same here. Especially Peter. You'd think he could easily beat out Leury Garcia for a super-utility role.

 

 

Frazier,Anderson, Saladino, Sanchez, Lawrie, Everth Cabrera, Davidson, Asche, and Leury could all play 3B, SS, or 2B.

Leury and his lifetime average of .188 has no business being on a major league ball club IMO. The guy is almost as painful to watch bat as Sanchez. I'd much rather let Peter takes his place who appears to provide the same positional flexibility and slightly more upside with the bat.

Last year at Charlotte Garcia hit .313 and Peter hit .259 so I am not sure Peter easily beats him out.

Garcia can play average D at SS, 2B, and probably any OF position. He also has Plus speed. He;s not very good but you wanted reasons as to why Peter and Alvarez aren't there. They have other guys they want to see first. That's why.
