WTF are you talking about? Get out of the opium dens. Gray has 127 minor league homers. Tristan Gray College, Amateur, Minor & Independent Leagues Statistics | Baseball-Reference.com

You don't need a "great" shortstop. Gray has more power. Not sure what you're really responding to. My original comment was more about Gray seeming to get more early action than Baldwin. The other part was that Amaya was the only one on that list who wasn't exactly a lock.

I think you're reading too much into a single comment.

Go watch the Cubs, then.

Gilbert, Ellard, Murfee, Leasure and Shuster are all candidates for the bullpen.

Well, they made it exciting in the end.

Granted it's our ML relievers going against AA and guys trying to extend their careers, but the bullpen looks good, and I'll take it.

MLB Trade Rumors lists out each team's list of out of option players. The only one that even requires brain cells would be Jacob Amaya. Sosa and Vargas should make the team. Tauchman, Thaiss and Bryse Wilson were brought here to make the team. Tristan Gray looked viable, and he hits a bit better and has way more power than Amaya. Plus, Gray has 2 options left. I also think it's telling that when Colson Montgomery was scratched, yesterday, Gray got the call to replace him, not Baldwin, even when Baldwin was on hand to replace Benintendi when he was pulled for x-rays. article: Out Of Options 2025 - MLB Trade Rumors White Sox Jacob Amaya, IF Lenyn Sosa, IF Mike Tauchman, OF Matt Thaiss, C Miguel Vargas, IF Bryse Wilson, SP/RP

Two weeks before baseball activities?

Unless he walks over from the Dodgers' game, where he's starting at SS, Tim Anderson won't be facing any White Sox pitchers.

Nick Madrigal out for the season.

Moncada and Anderson playing in the split squad game against the Dodgers today. Yolmer looks to be on the bench against us.

You're getting everyone's picture of the lineup card!!!

The atonement game for Baldwin and Vargas. Fletcher has to see open field in front of him for an OD start in RF.

Shuster and Gilbert have to be in direct competition right now. I'd really hope Anderson is on the outside looking in. He was a respite, like Flexen, last year, but I think the Sox have accumulated enough better arms at this point.

thoughts: Berroa's out for a bit, right? Anderson's position would seem mighty tenuous. I wonder if they're stretching Gilbert out as a starter. Tristan Gray strikes me as an alternate for Amaya. Looked capable at SS, and hits for power.

I wouldn't call him favorite. He's a guy. I wouldn't cut Fletcher. Colas is next up, for me. Fletcher can still play a meaningful CF and still has the pedigree of a hitter.

Berolla laid down a nice bunt for a single and looked like a central casting shortstop.
