Nice, BA didn’t have transaction date but maybe milb will

Just don’t trade him to the Guardians. He’d be terrifying there

zero walks for a 19 year old, 4 pitches for strikes...I'm in love.

One of the reasons injuries may hurt us more is they decide to have players like danny mendick up here when there are like 5 more talented infielders in AAA

MILB folks, I highly, HIGHLY recommend checking out my last post in the BA thread. Great new nuggets for this crew.

So BA is doing rolling mid season updates, but there's no real indications that i could see for who moved up or down so glad this existed! I know there was an update after the quoted post above. For instance Ramos had already moved to 6 so it's more like +4, but bear with me since this was easiest. Note, I did include Colas was at 10 below, so I tried my best!!! Here is the updated list with movement. This will be the last update. I love my BA subscription, and it includes May Updates on so many guys with the stuff we've been begging for info on including defensive comments and most importantly, velo and stuff jumps! This rolling update is new and SO SO worth it. Please consider supporting such an awesome product that I am pirating here so you can have a final taste. 1. Colson Montgomery SS (Unchanged) 2. Bryan Ramos 3B +10 (was 11) 3. Jose Rodriguez SS +2 4. Sean Burke RHP +5 5. Norge Vera RHP -3 6. Oscar Colas OF +4 7. Yoelqui Cespedes OF -5 8. Jake Burger (hilariously listed as RHP on the site but 3B) -1 9. Romy Gonzalez SS +6 10. Wes Kath 3b -6 11. Lenyn Sosa SS/2B +6!!! (see notes below) 12. Yolbert Sanchez SS/2b +4 13. Davis Martin RHP +27 (highest jump, see notes below) 14. Jared Kelley RHP -6 15. Jason Bilous RHP -1 16. Matthew Thompson RHP -6 17. Jimmy Lambert RHP -5 18. Jonathan Stiever RHP -5 19. Christian Mena RHP +1 20. Kohl Simas RHP SEE NOTES BELOW 21. Andrew Dalquist RHP -14 22. Erick Hernandez OF (I have to check but I believe he was just slid down from 16 since everyone moved up.) 23. Caleb Freeman RHP -2 24. Tanner MacDougal RHP -6 25. Adam Hackenberg C +5 26. Luis Mieses OF -3 27. Carlos Perez C Unranked previously 28. Yohemy Nolasco RHP (PM for an awesome tidbit) 29. Bennett Sousa LHP -3 (first lhp i've included? lol) 30. Yoelvin Silven RHP -4 I am providing a small sample of notes: Sosa: The power has emerged in Sosa’ s age-22 season, with his ISO jumping from .068 last year to .197 in 2022. His walk rate has also improved significantly while strikeouts have dropped. With the ability to play all three infield positions, there could be further upward movement as the season progresses. Simas: May Update: An undrafted free agent in 2021, Simas moved into the rotation this year at Low-A Kannapolis and is attacking hitters with a four-pitch mix including a mid-90s fastball. https://www.baseballamerica.com/teams/1026/chicago-white-sox/organizational/#96992 The Yohemy Nolasco stuff is ❤️ . Never heard of him prior, don't even know what class he was in? He is 19 years old from the Dominican Republic.

I take that back I guess, if the pitching coach match is really clicking, I can see keeping him. Would be cool to know that stuff.

So Mena is throwing curveballs for strikes and now a change...what more could he possibly show in low-A? I could understand if we have more staff in carolinas they may not want him to go to birmingham, but don't see reason to not move him to A+.

Yeah I wasn't sure whether to praise that one just because the walks. But glad he's showing resilience and not getting knocked out after an inning like he would have last year.

I disagree those were the issues per se. After the playoffs, I think we all wanted team to aim to be the best in playoffs not just best in ALC. What the common weaknesses were that were discussed were 1) Way too groundball heavy. 2) Way too right handed/way too poor vs. RHP 3) Poor Defense 4) Pitching staff that cannot find strike zone in high leverage My pet one was that I thought staff was too fastball heavy as a staff which playoff teams crush. I actually think Kelly/Graveman was about this and did improve it. I'd say none of 1-4 are really solved but Pollock helped with 2. It seemed like 3 would be helped but now hes being put in LF and RF is the same.

The problem with Harrison is we had a lineup that was too groundball prone, too little power and too right handed in the playoffs and there were plenty of complementary players, or at least enough. But they let players that were good complements leave because the Sox know REAL market value then overpay for the trash left behind. Harrison exacerbates all of our worst tendencies, which may have been okay if they added phenom at defense but he is not that either. Him sucking was incredibly predictable. Adam Frazier, Wendle, Escobar we’re all reasonable for 2b to acquire, all providing average to above average production vs RHp so far. Not all fix groundball prone or OBP, but they at least boosted us vs RHP

Looks like every Hahn offseason since 2013

My god man, he’s the man

Productive night for Ramos. Just one hit but 3 RBIs and a Run

Wait Sosa had 2 home runs?!

Any key in this forum getting annoyed by all the proclamations that no Sox fans knew who Davis Martin was until the last day or two?

My god lol

don't stop now boys

The better version of this should be "I knew my career was over when I saw Rick Hahn calling"

Harrison is just absolutely nailing the Jimmy Rollins/Jon Jay/Adam Eaton role for the 2022 season.

lol people hated 7 inning games though. I think you and me are the only ones who liked it.

kinda wish this was a 7 inning game and by kinda I mean I definitely wish.

I'm still surprised, I know Sox have some roster moves upcoming but Charlotte has cut 3 position players recently and haven't seen much come up from birmingham.

He's been interesting guy to follow. In A-A+ he would put together these incredible games of like 10+ks and a few runs, and then the next outing 2 IP and 10 runs. So he clearly had potential to dominate, and slowly moved up, then this year he put it all together with command and this is a bit of a surprise but with pitchers is it ever that much of a surprise?
