Bob Sacamano Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 (edited) 56 minutes ago, Chicago White Sox said: Does Carela accrue service time? He was never on the 26 man roster, so a bit different from Bush and Berroa. Last year would not matter once you are added to the 40-man. However, the note earlier did say he was optioned today so maybe it's minor league IL (which I guess probably wouldn't up a spot on the 40-man).

Lyle Moooton Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 Well there’s two 40 man spots that just opened up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking into it, Carela was optioned today, so I would assume he wouldn't be on the MLB 60-day IL. I don't think that would open up a 40-man spot.

One person throwing 97 maybe be throwing with less effort than someone else throwing 95. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't believe so. He was added to the 40 man last November but has never been on the active roster. They'll burn an option but no MLB service time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WestEddy Posted March 9 Share Posted March 9 DVS Sox notebook, key takeaways: - Thorpe looks to be throwing 3 innings by end of ST - Drury challenging for a spot - Taylor's an exciting pitcher - Meidroth sidelined a couple days Quote The Sox were able to sign Drury, 32, on a minor league contract ($2 million) with an invite to spring training after he slumped miserably to .169/.242/.228 in 97 games with the Angels last season. He was batting .348/.375/.696 with a home run five doubles, which ranks second in the Cactus League, and took a five-game hitting streak into Sunday’s game against the Guardians. The Sox need offense, but being in rebuild mode, it’s possible he could fetch a younger player in a trade when rosters are re-evaluated as Opening Day approaches. Drew Thorpe 'in a good spot' as he works way back into White Sox rotation - Chicago Sun-Times Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tnetennba Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 3 hours ago, WhiteSox2023 said: Decent in 2023, rather mediocre last season. He can cover all 3 OF spots, but spends most of his time in LF. I guess he's a solid depth signing, but not sure he offers much as a flip candidate either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 Are we talking about Jankowski? Another version of Pillar. At least he provides defensive vetsatility and insurance if Taylor totally bottoms out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
