Van Skike, Merkley Sign With White Sox http://www.gosycamores.com/ViewArticle.dbm...TCLID=205171438

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Jun 21, 2011 -> 12:27 AM) I'll start paying attention to Great Falls/Bristol when some of the signees start playing. I can't imagine anyone on that team right now is anything but a loooooooongshot prospect. GF's Qualon Millender is the 2011 BaseballAmerica's Fastest Base-runner for the White Sox organization. Went 3-6 2R 3B 2RBI 2K tonight (Spent 2010 w. Bristol) Also keep an eye on Jon Bachanov ('07 Angels' Supp. 1st Rounder) 2.0IP 1H 0R/ER 4K tonight in White Sox debut.

In a response to my Behind the Boxscore: Addison Reed article: http://www.chicagonow.com/blogs/future-sox...dison-reed.html Reed received his 1st career inherited runners tonight in his 1.1IP outing in Huntsville. He was left with 2 runners (on corners) from Johnnie Lowe. This would equal a 0.00 RRA 1.1IP 1H 0R/ER 2K -- Lowers his season ERA to 1.34

Jacob Petricka headed to Bristol to rehab:

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Jun 18, 2011 -> 11:49 PM) Spencer Arroyo, my sleeper from last year, with a great outing. 9 IP, 3 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 4 K. I'm glad Kannapolis' bats showed up enough to give Arroyo the W. #Sarcasm. Goodness. When Arroyo left the game Kannapolis only had 6 hits.

6/17/11 6.2IP 6H 3R 1ER 3K -- Credited w. Loss moves to (4-5) Pulled after 6.2 after reaching his pitch count. Negus came into the game and allowed 2 inherited runners to score for Heidenreich. ERA continues to fall - Now 4.63

QUOTE (JPN366 @ Jun 17, 2011 -> 12:48 PM) Former White Sox minor league outfielder Salvador Sanchez has rejoined the organization and is now a pitcher. He is on the Great Falls roster. He had signed with the Rangers organization and started the process of converting to pitcher, but he was released by Texas recently. Negron, Septimo, and now Sanchez Is Jared Mitchell gonna be our next outfield to pitcher in the organization?

1.1IP 1H 1R/ER 2BB 2K in Bham debut

QUOTE (JPN366 @ Jun 13, 2011 -> 04:38 PM) Funny thing is, Septimo was already in Birmingham. He was on Arizona's AA team, who are currently in town to play the Barons. I think the White Sox traded Gaby Hernandez to Arizona as some sort of indirect compensation. He was assigned to their AAA team.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 9, 2011 -> 02:21 PM) Winston-Salem Dash This just in: three Winston-Salem Dash were named to the Carolina League All-Star Team when rosters were announced earlier today. RHP Andre Rienzo, OF Jose Martinez, and DH Ian Gac will represent the Carolina League when it takes on the California League All-Stars on Tuesday, June 21, in Modesto, CA.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 10, 2011 -> 11:20 AM) 31st rounder michael5johnson michael johnson It's official I'm a White Sox #winning michael5johnson michael johnson Found out I leave for Great Falls Montana on Sunday Today @michael5johnson Twitter says: "Goodbye Naples. Off to the airport. Next stop Bristol Virginia"

Matt went 4.1 innings before the game was paused due to rain and he was unable to return to the game due to the delay. It was unfortunate that Heidenreich was unable to be a part of the decision in Kannapolis' 12-0 victory. Heidenreich only allowed 1 hit during this stint (combined w. O.Santos & Cooney for a 3 hit game) Walking 1 batter and striking out 2. This lowers his ERA to 4.99

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Jun 10, 2011 -> 12:28 PM) So Blake Drake has a twitter, and his twitter name is @BlakeJakeDrake. Man, I really hope Jake is his middle name! lol. Anyway, found it kind of interesting that according to his twitter, he went up to Chicago on Jun 2nd and visited US Cellular field. One of his tweets reads... "Hit 97 on the stadium gun at US cellular " I assume he is talking about himself. But when I have looked up scouting reports for this guy, it says he throws about 91. And I looked up a scouting video from 2009, and it showed him only hitting 88. Could he really have ramped up his velo that much? I understand "hitting 97" is not maintaining it, but I assume it means he can pump it in at 94-95 with some frequency. Can't hold truth to it, but his Facebook lists him as Blake Jake Drake. He's on Jacob Petricka's friends so I'm pretty sure its legit. http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=665948785 Kinda stalker-ish but Oops! (:

Wes Whisler re-assigned to Charlotte after 5.0IP scoreless over his last 5 apperances for Kannapolis as a left-handed specialist.

Ozzie Chavez released Michael Restonavich activated from DL Chase Cooney activated from DL

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Jun 7, 2011 -> 09:18 PM) Ricks has just been chillin on the DL the entire season. Ricks hasn't necessarily been "chillin'" at all. Ricks had been directly assigned as the catcher for rehabbing Wes Whisler. As Whisler is becoming a left-handed specialist, Rick has been there to catch Whisler's bullpen sessions. Adam has spend many days in Kannapolis as well. I have seen him instruct Mike Blanke, coach 1st base & catch warm-ups between innings.
