I would guess he is in the lineup on Wednesday (maybe even an outside chance of playing tomorrow). 

Historically, a week in Schaumburg is what it takes to be MLB ready.

It’s official.

  • Kalapse changed the title to Mazara Returns, Mercedes Optioned, Lambert to 45 day DL

Nicky Delmonico will never die

I feel so bad for lambert, that’s brutal.

Not good if he went to the 45 day. Good bet it's more than a muscle strain then.

At least he got to pitch some big league innings but yea, it sucks for him and the Sox. Next man up tho and so far so good with the pen.

Nicky can at least catch a ball at a defensive position on a roster where we have a ton of DHs.  As much as Delmonico should go (and probably will once rosters reduce to 28), this is the right move.

At least for his sake it happened while he was on a major league roster.  He is going to get a full year of service time and 40% of a major league salary out of it, if nothing else.

Wouldn't have hated Mercedes as a late inning pinch hitter (against lefties for Mazara?) but he just doesn't have a position.

You already have Mazara and Garcia and Engel there's no need for Delmonico.

Damn Yermin only got one AB.

Not really.   You have a #4 OF in Engel and #5 in Leury.  

There is no role for Delmonico. 

Keep the best possible bat off the bench in case of a late inning need.   

The Sox really don’t need Mendick, Goins, Delmonico, or Collins. I predict when they go to 26, they keep either Mendick or Goins but not both and everyone else goes down.

You have about 5 DH/PH types on this roster.

I'm glad he at least got that

I mean where is Yermin going to play? He has no spot anywhere on this ballclub. White Sox Twitter always says to play him...where? In the outfield? Why?

Again, I pointed out to you that there are also 5 OFs already.   

If the point is you just want another glove instead of a DH guy, then Delmonico isnt' that.   Call up Basabe or Gonzalez then. 

I don't understand why you and Ricky want to die on this Delmonico hill.   

If Edwin continues to look dead-win then I have no doubt Yermin will be back, if only to back up Collins as the DH.

I honestly don't understand why anyone wants to die on the hill of a guy who couldn't make a 30 man roster, even with a few guys missing.

That's the sad part. But also glad this is where we are in life. 2 years ago he'd have a solid chance to be 2020's Daniel Palka. Truth is both guys have SOME talent & are nice guys. But they belong on the 2017 Sox or the 2020 Royals. There's a chance they turn out to be a late bloomers and the real deal, but likely a Palka year is the best you'll ever get out of them - not part of the real future. He probably should've gotten his shot late last year and then tried to flip him in the off-season. Wish him well, but in this current state, you've got to get those AB's to EE, McCann, Collins in that order. 

 

Hopefully he can catch on with a bottom dweller for a few seasons and make a bit of money for his family.
