July 27, 20169 yr Posted this over in the Trade Winds forums as well, but Sanchez was pulled early in the bottom of the 3rd for Delmonico. Anyone got any ideas the reason behind that? Seems odd to pull him so early. #HugWatch?

July 27, 20169 yr QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Jul 26, 2016 -> 08:13 PM) Injury? Gameday didn't say. It was a defensive substitution and then they shuffled Peter and Muno around.

July 27, 20169 yr Author Matt Cooper 2.0 IP, 1H, 0R, 0BB, 3K. Still feel like they gave up on him as a starter too early but could be an interesting September bullpen candidate.
July 27, 20169 yr Adam Pan is apparently getting me some autographs and I requested Call. Have to represent that Ball State pride baby!

I would say the next four should consist of Burdi, Hansen, Adams, & Call. Right now, I'd probably put Call 5th, just ahead of Burdi but it's close. Edited July 27, 20169 yr by Chicago White Sox
July 27, 20169 yr Call has been great but let's not forget about Schnurbusch who's been tearing it up something fierce in GF. Imho, both should be at Winston-Salem with Collins.
July 27, 20169 yr It's great to see Call doing well, but I think some of you are assigning WAY too much value to a month's worth of stats, mostly in rookie ball, for a college draftee. Let's put it in perspective. Call was seen as a rounds 6-10 guy by some pundits, and a reach generally in the 3rd. He's got three years of college exposure. He should have raked in Great Falls, and did. It's a good thing, but no way should he even be in the discussion for Top 5 in the Sox system at this point.
July 27, 20169 yr I'd like sox, now that we have time, to bundle talent together and advance them as their teams win, similar to the cards/twins have done previously. I don't know if it works, but we haven't seemed to try it.

July 27, 20169 yr QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 27, 2016 -> 11:04 AM) Very nice to see Micker get 4 htis. especially after last night's 4k performance. Nice rebound for him.

I think it's just rarely do we see OBP mastery like this even early. Every game its like he has 2 BB.
July 27, 20169 yr Amado Nunez has been flying under the radar so far, he's been having a pretty impressive year for an 18 year old in the AZL. I guess his defense needs a lot of work right now but a .330/.355/.452/.808 line over 115 ABs is pretty encouraging.
