March 26, 20251 yr Brooks Baldwin, Travis Jankowski and Nick Maton made the Opening Day roster. Mike Tauchman and Josh Rojas start on the IL. — Chuck Garfien (@ChuckGarfien) March 26, 2025
March 26, 20251 yr Jones solves the problem of supposedly needing Taylor to back up CF. Might as well claim Canario if available and cut Taylor while we're at it.

That's why I never really understood the Taylor signing. You would be able to find some defensive first OF towards the end of camp/around now. Heck, we picked up Jankowski lol
March 26, 20251 yr Has a Rule 5 draft pick ever made a team’s rotation to start the season before? Edited March 26, 20251 yr by WhiteSox2023
March 26, 20251 yr In Dec. 1900, Christy Mathewson was taken in rule 5 draft by the Reds, but subsequently traded back to Giants, then pitched 336 innings in 1901

I don't think the expectation was he'd be here to start the year. Even Robert admitted that himself. I wouldn't be surprised to see him be one of those rare May trades.
March 26, 20251 yr I'm surprised Anderson didn't make it. I always thought they liked him more than was warranted. His Spring was, however, something less than outstanding.

Get Coffey Pallette Schoenle and Tanner McDougal ready to go because replacement needs will be abundant. Edited March 26, 20251 yr by caulfield12

March 26, 20251 yr Subtracting Gilbert leaves B.Wilson and Vasil as your swingmen/blowout coverage guys. Then Iriarte Nastrini and Dunn behind them with Owen White gone.
March 26, 20251 yr 1 hour ago, Whisox05 said: So three more 40 man spots needed. Thorpe is 1. So 2 more guys on the chopping block and Eisert certainly seemed like he was going to be 1. With Tyler Gilbert supposedly going to the IL, pretty much has to be Schuster and Owen White considering 26 of the 40 man roster are pitchers.

Heck, we picked up Jankowski lol Taylor is an elite defender who was a 2 win player from 2021 to 2023. His bat fell off last year, but he’s far more likely to be a productive major leaguer than Jankowski or Jones. Don’t get me wrong, I wouldn’t have signed Taylor given all the other veteran OFs, but these guys aren’t really that interchangeable.

He’s in Charlotte rotation. I’m curious to see what they do. I wouldn’t be surprised to see them DFA or release Carela at this point. They can’t put him on 60-day since they sent him down. They can’t carry him all season. 9 minutes ago, Chicago White Sox said: Gilbert didn’t make it? He’s on the IL.
