Dan Hayes‏Verified account @CSNHayes 28m28 minutes ago Geovany Soto just walked by in full catcher's gear headed for the bullpen. #WhiteSox

 

Do you think he still figures in Sox plans? I say tht because with apparent satisfaction the team seem to have with Narvaez and Smith I would doubt if they do anything with Soto until September 4th when rosters increase. Then he may not not have a place here in 2018

Forgot he was even on the team, rather than Brantly this is probably your Sept 3rd catcher.

 

The thing is, Rob Brantly has earned another shot. I looked up his numbers after he destroyed us (Lehigh Valley) a couple weeks ago -- he's running like a 140 wRC+ or something.

Eh, he's 28. At this point, I think he's just a good AAA catcher/potential ok MLB backup, regardless of how well he hits in the minors.

Right, probably, but Kevan Smith is 29. I'd rather see if Brantly can be a platoon piece than give pending FA journeyman Soto ABs in September. The only reason I can think of to play Soto is to do him a favor to show he's healthy going into FA.
