justBLAZE Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 Thanks guys. Any chance they are waiting on the MLB draft and promotions will come with signings/assignments? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it was usually in May and teams wait until June because it sometimes stretches to the first week of June and they want to be safe.

Could be waiting until Robert is back as they will need to move up someone from the High A OF to clear a spot for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flavum Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 Still think Eloy stays in Birmingham until after the Southern League AS Game(in Birmingham). In Charlotte on June 21st, and finishes out the minor league season there. Major league debut April 15, 2019. Or around there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 It's good for the players (and organization) to see them make All-Star teams and get rewarded for their excellent play. Nothing's FORCING Jimenez to go to AA until after June 19th or whatever the date is. Reading the tea leaves from Hahn, they seem pretty set on holding him back into the start of 2019...Kopech's the one who is much likelier to be moved up (obvious statement of the day).

I obviously don't know him personally, but I'd imagine he'd much rather be rewarded for his excellent play by playing for the White Sox rather than a minor league all-star game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 There's just NO WAY they're going to push Jimenez up quickly this year when it's a lost season...and we have a really good shot at the #1 overall draft pick in 2019. Besides, if prospective free agents need to see Kopech and Jimenez play in the major leagues first before they're convinced to sign with the White Sox...we don't need 'em, right?

In no way should his development be dictated by how good or bad the White Sox is playing. He will quickly be the most important piece on that team. All promotions or lack thereof should be based strictly on what is best for his development. And that's all I have to say about that...................................................................again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think Eloy jimenez, carrying a career 175 wRC+ in AA before age 22, who has already stated that he is "mostly not challenged" by AA and has also said feels he is ready for MLB pitching gives half a shit about a AA all star game. "the bess" isn't concerned with no trifles. The point is you call him up when it's the right baseball move -- no more, no less. There is an argument he's ready for MLB now. I can't see a single argument against moving him to AAA within the next few weeks -- a AA All-Star game? Come on.
