May 15, 20178 yr Larry at SSS says it will be Gregory Infante. Infante is not on the 40 man, and would require a move to make space, I believe.
May 15, 20178 yr Infante's only major league time was with the Sox in 2010. Wonder what the record is for longest gap between first year and second year in the bigs? He has to be close.

He spent 2010 with Arizona, didn't play in MLB again until this year with Oakland.

May 15, 20178 yr QUOTE (flavum @ May 15, 2017 -> 12:22 PM) Wow, that's quite a coincidence. Robinson Cancel started his career in 1999 and didn't play again until 2008, that's amazing.
May 15, 20178 yr QUOTE (flavum @ May 15, 2017 -> 12:39 PM) I wonder if Soto goes on the 60-day...have a feeling he's toast for a while. That's a long time even if they need to do a scope and remove the loose bodies. But with the way they have been treating injuries this year, anything is possible. Edited May 15, 20178 yr by ptatc

But with the way they have been treating injuries this year, anything is possible. You'd think they would be less likely to have Soto out longer than needed because he's on a 1-year deal and would be hoping to get back as soon as he can so he can build his resume for next year.
May 15, 20178 yr I don't think anyone is going to bat an eye if Alfredo Gonzalez or Cody Asche are DFA'd to make room. Probably Gonzalez because they probably would have just DFA'd Asche yesterday if that was their plan.
May 15, 20178 yr QUOTE (flavum @ May 15, 2017 -> 12:39 PM) I wonder if Soto goes on the 60-day...have a feeling he's toast for a while. That is exactly what happened. Soto surgery, out minimum 12 weeks. The Sox got exactly what anyone would expect out of Soto, some homers, some painful throws back to the pitcher, and extended stays on the DL.

His throw a back to the pitcher have to be the most absurd in history. That's not counting the yips.

That is a long, depending on how badly the joint surface is damaged.
May 16, 20178 yr Dan Hayes @CSNHayes 7s Cody Asche was outrighted off the 40-man roster and accepted the assignment to Triple-A Charlotte. #WhiteSox 40-man is at 39.
May 16, 20178 yr QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ May 15, 2017 -> 07:10 AM) I thought about it and it would just be soundbites of Hawk/Benneti/Stone saying his name lol I'll remember his homer and Harrelson going on and on about how he just missed another one (moonball to RF) in the same game.

May 16, 20178 yr QUOTE (Knuckles @ May 16, 2017 -> 05:37 PM) Is there more to this? Charlie Tilson nearing a return??
May 16, 20178 yr I'm taking it as the Sox were giving Asche the option of getting picked up by another team, and when nobody picked him up on waivers, he took the outright assignment.
May 16, 20178 yr QUOTE (ptatc @ May 15, 2017 -> 04:05 PM) That is a long, depending on how badly the joint surface is damaged. Meanwhile, Tyler Flowers at .352 and 900 ops in 70+ at-bats.
May 16, 20178 yr QUOTE (Sleepy Harold @ May 16, 2017 -> 05:47 PM) Charlie Tilson nearing a return?? Maybe Shields or Rodon?
May 16, 20178 yr QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 16, 2017 -> 05:53 PM) Meanwhile, Tyler Flowers at .352 and 900 ops in 70+ at-bats. That's crappy NL pitching for you. Flowers also posted a 110 wRC+ last year. His previous career high was 96.
