QUOTE (bmags @ Jul 18, 2016 -> 03:15 PM) Wow that's pretty aggressive I have been told Sox like to reward a players hard work with promotions, and this an example of that. Adam has worked very hard to clean up his mechanics and he has been tearing up Birmingham recently. I think he is ready.

Likely will be Engel's debut at AAA. Avila is also with the Knights on a rehab assignment.

Hawkins goes yard. Only his 5th of the year, which is pretty disapointing actually.

45 pitches and only 26 strikes...his control/command is not ready.

QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Jul 15, 2016 -> 07:58 AM) Michael Hickman related to Blake? Nope.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 14, 2016 -> 01:35 PM) MiLB.com ‏@MiLB 3h3 hours ago #WhiteSox rookie Brady Conlan benefiting from playing on Cape Cod and in #WBC http://atmilb.com/29ETp6Y I like him a lot. Read a local newspaper article similar to this after he was drafted.

QUOTE (bmags @ Jul 14, 2016 -> 09:15 AM) Would really like Adolfo to get a nice second half going. I'm getting concerned about Adolfo's strikeouts. I know he is fairly raw for Kannapolis but he's K'ing at a 38% clip.

http://www.chicagonow.com/future-sox/2016/...ious-over-cubs/ Not a great night overall for Sox affiliates.

Zach Remillard making his professional debut for AZL.

http://www.milb.com/scoreboard/index.jsp?c...mp;ymd=20160713 All affiliates in action except for Charlotte, who is having their All-Star game tonight. Alfaro went 2-3 with a walk for the DSL team.

http://www.chicagonow.com/future-sox/2016/...l-baby-boomers/ Recap posted. Only three games, so I took a closer look at a couple notable DSL players.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Jul 12, 2016 -> 03:40 PM) Kanny will be Jimmy Lambert, just promoted from AZL. 2016 5th round pick, had 13 K's and a .172 average against him over 8 innings in the AZL.

http://www.milb.com/scoreboard/index.jsp?c...mp;ymd=20160712 Just Birmingham, Kanny, and DSL in action. Holmberg starting for Birmingham, TBA for Kanny.

QUOTE (oldsox @ Jul 12, 2016 -> 07:11 AM) Looking back at some of the stats a few signees compiled in college, I'm really surprised that they lasted so long. First example is Call. Drafted #86 overall. With his performance in college, I can't believe there were 85 better prospects. Same with Booker, Round 22, overall # in the 650's. Fisher, 4th Round, same thing. Anyway, I'm glad Sox got them and look forward to seeing them progress. Nick Hostetler said in his interview with FutureSox that he got texts from five different organizations that were ready to draft Call after the Sox grabbed in the 3rd. Funny how on draft day he seemed like a reach but in reality he might of actually been a steal.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Jul 12, 2016 -> 10:05 AM) He was actually drafted as a shortstop. Was a disaster there, moved to third. Was a disaster there, moved to first. Trying him in OF on and off too. His bat has some loudness to it, but it's a really long swing. He's very fringe if he's a prospect at all. Good call, I forgot because that experiment was abandoned so long ago.

QUOTE (Dunt @ Jul 12, 2016 -> 08:22 AM) Is Nick Basto a real spec? 22 yo w/ a .292/.364/.446 line in 305 ABs this season between A+ and AA. Anyone have any idea if the Sox plan to keep playing Engel in AA this season? Would be nice to see him move up and maybe have a shot to win that CF position next season. His defense next to Eaton's would be pretty nasty. No. He was crushing A+ to start the season, got promoted to Birmingham and s*** the bed up there (.188.253/.238). He was also drafted as a 3B but didn't stick there, so he's been playing 1B/LF, but heard bad things about OF defense.

Winston-Salem already underway. Zach Thompson got shelled in his A+ debut. http://www.milb.com/scoreboard/index.jsp?c...mp;ymd=20160711

Fulmer struck out ten over five innings, giving up two runs on five hits and three walks. Burdi relieves Fulmer and is currently imploding. Three walks with nobody out.
