Maybe we see Robertson get some run down the stretch. 

I really hope so.  And damn do I want Clifford in a Robert trade.

So is this dude just the OF version of Tim Elko?

He's on the 40-man so once they trade a couple of the guys at the MLB level, he should.

If Tim Elko could play the OF he’d be a far more interesting dart throw

He's played more 1B this season but he's also left-handed. We're definitely at a point (along with next year) where they could play him in the OF corners.

Some insights on Schultz, Wolkow, and Colson working through their struggles, ending with Montgomery's call up.

Where is Carlson playing?

Couple of thoughts:

- Please god, let Braden and [insert 2B of choice] be the RF and 2B that the Sox haven't had since Dye/Iguchi.

- Looked at Burke's stats out of curiosity and man, he's the poster child of being consumed by Birmingham.

Arizona Bridge League

Dye+Iguchi might actually be failure too. We need Braden to be a cornerstone star

3B Anthony DePino (7th round), OF Ely Brown (12th round), SS Colby Shelton (6th round) to Kannapolis

SS Kyle Lodise (3rd round) to WS

That will be fun. Excited for Shelton & DePino in particular.

Three guys drafted last month have joined the lineup in Kannapolis and Wolkow is still 2.5+ years younger than all of them. He doesn't turn 20 until early next year. Kind of puts some things in perspective.

Billy Carlson Turning Heads With Off-Field Traits

Billy Carlson is one of the most popular names among a very draft-friendly White Sox lineup down in Glendale. It’s easy to see why he was such a coveted name in the draft. His defensive prowess stands out with a smooth ability to play the field combined with a 70-grade arm, which has been on display through the first couple weeks of bridge league play. His bat-to-ball skills have been impressive, too, and he’s generating contact against pro pitching.

 

However, from talking to Paul Janish, White Sox director of player development, the organization is even more impressed with the overall makeup Carlson is displaying at just 19 years old.

“He’s a very inquisitive kid,” Janish said. “He’s a very smart kid. It’s very evident that he wants to be really good. He asks very good questions. It seems from the get-go, he’s going to be a guy who is interested in the ‘why.’ He’s not just going to nod and smile all the time, which I appreciate. I think that’s a character trait in guys who are going to be successful.”

Looking beyond Carlson, Jaden Fauske, Chicago’s second-round pick out of Nazareth Academy (Illinois), has shown he can connect with the barrel through his first couple of bridge league games. Janish also highlighted Fauske as a player with great makeup who has already established himself as a leader among the new draftees.

However, don’t expect to see Carlson, Fauske or any other freshly-drafted White Sox high school player or pitcher make their debut this season, as Janish said the team intends to keep all those players down at the complex this year.

Third-rounder Kyle Lodise impressed, as well, collecting two hits in the bridge league opener. He’s been promoted to High-A Winston-Salem to get his feet wet in pro ball.

Do they keep track of stats?  I doubt it.....

Not in any accessible way. Mostly have to rely on word of mouth and the occasional bit of video.

I like the aggression with their top prospects, it’s an aggression that makes sense, they’re not rushing guys but pushing them.

Pipeline's latest. Carlson debuts at #79.

Why is Dominic Fletcher not in Chicago?

Where would he play? You'd probably need both Benintendi and Tauchman to hit the IL to open up a spot.
