May 1, 20232 yr Does anyone know if we have anyone in Charlotte that might be able to hit major league pitching? Especially infielders? Romy and Lenyn: They’ve got cool names and I’m sure they are nice guys, but they can’t hit MLB pitching right now. And Elvis looks like he forgot how. I’m hopeful we turn it around but we’re going to need a few more MLB caliber players than what we’ve got right now. If Jerry Jr can pay Zach Levine $50 M a year to miss the playoffs, why can’t he pay a Shohei $60 or even a Trea Turner $40?
May 1, 20232 yr Author Is Leury Garcia still available? Should I see the doctor if I yearn for his return even momentarily
May 1, 20232 yr If your account is under 30 days old, you can't make new threads. That's what I would do.

While Leury likely can no longer hit ML pitching consistently, he would provide value being able to cover multiple positions infield and outfield positions adequately defensively as a reserve player. He is much more valuable than Romy who can neither hit or field at the ML level. It’s doubtful Leury would return even if asked, as he is being paid $5.5M each of the next two seasons to stay home after he was hastily DFA’d with little to no reserve depth in the organization. Haseley can play all three of the OF positions and hopefully will remain up to help the pitching staff prevent 4-5 out innings due to sloppy play.
May 2, 20232 yr Washington Slept Here (1980). Best Sox banner ever when RF was turned into a sandy swamp after Disco Demolition and concerts and Claudell did not want to run in that crud. He waited until the ball stopped rolling and picked it up. The OF had bad drainage during that era.
May 2, 20232 yr AAA Charlotte is a who's who of failed players in the majors. No hitters at all. Their bullpen outside of Alex Colome and Tanner Banks mirrors the major league club beautifully.

May 2, 20232 yr 11 hours ago, 2Deep said: I am totally in favor of bringing up several minor league players to replace the dead weight losers on this team, but only after we trade them away before the deadline.
May 3, 20232 yr 1st guy I'd call up is Lenyn Sosa. Sox f@#$ed up by bringing Hanser back instead of just releasing him.
May 3, 20232 yr You've seen how the rookies have played this year and you're asking if there's more of them??
May 3, 20232 yr With Moncada on the IL and Colas back in the Minors, this lineup is once again void of left handed power. Grandal and Sheets are the only options and that is pretty underwhelming. We all knew that this roster was poorly constructed, but it looks even worse than many of us thought.

May 3, 20232 yr I will answer this question about any if there is any help in the minors this way. I will only concentrate on AAA Charlotte, as its usually pretty rare to bring up someone up from lower than AAA. There are 20 teams that play in the AAA International league which has 10 teams each in two divisions. Hitting: In 28 games BA - .239 18th OBP - .330 -18th SLG - .377 - 18th OPS - .707 -19th Runs - 3.89/game -19th HR's - 22 - 19th Pitching: ERA - 6.27 - 20th WHIP - 1.71 - 20th Again as its been mentioned in this forum at nauseum, this is all about the genius GM Rick Hahn and his FO staff. From all of Rick's executives, scouts, managers, coaches and their overall manner and in how ineffectively this White Sox organization drafts and develops players. Hence why the White Sox have the 26th ranked farm system.

Except those guys usually make their way up to the big club when the injuries hit. Like the Dramatics sang in 1971, "Whatcha see is whatcha get..."
May 4, 20232 yr Colas and Sosa both in the MLB bottom ten of OPS for players 26 and under with 40 or more plate appearances. Also, feel not so encouraged Peralta the 46th ranked prospect in Sox system... Edited May 4, 20232 yr by caulfield12
