Kyyle23 Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 I hope Cedeno's AAA numbers follow him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GenericUserName Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 Isn't Rodon supposed to be back this weekend? Because I thought that open 40 spot was for him, but apparently we'll have to trade or outright someone else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoxAce Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 I think Bummer will be back and similar to Fry and Covey, a better pitcher. Was rushed up here so gives him time to develop a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChiSox59 Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 Strange. Bummer has been just fine. I'd rather see Bummer up here than Beck or Volstad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheFutureIsNear Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 Cedeno had an opt out clause coming up so this makes sense. Try to showcase him in the majors for a month or so for a trade instead of just letting him go. Bummer will be back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jake Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 This is really a bit of a headscratcher to me. Weird message to send to Bummer that you can pitch fine but if an older guy in AAA pitches well the team needs to trade him so you get demoted.

If Cedeno blows he’ll be released. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheTruth05 Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 If they wanted him to build value to flip he should have been up much earlier than now. Hopefully they get something for him but i doubt it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully they get something for him but i doubt it. Depends, they may want to limit his exposure to look good. There is over 6 weeks to build value. Thats enough time without over exposing him.

Chicago White Sox Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 I like this move. I personally don't think Bummer pitched as well as the peripherals might indicate. I honestly think he could use a bit more seasoning down in AAA. As for Cedeno, I believe he's under control for another year, so he wouldn't simply be a rental. Might be able to get a decent wild card prospect for him if he has a strong month and a half before the deadline, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsider2k5 Posted June 7, 2018 Author Share Posted June 7, 2018 In general I want to see guys like Bummer here and working, but at the same time his being a primary reliever in AAA means a lot more reps and IPs than being the last guy out of the pen here.
