March 3, 201115 yr QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Mar 3, 2011 -> 09:16 AM) I think he can too plus when you look at developing a roster I believe you look at versatility. Teahan can play 3B and the OF and maybe IB all when needed. Milledge will get his chance to show what he can do as will others trying to make the roster out of ST, but in the end a vetrean player like Teahan probably gets the nod Ugh.
March 3, 201115 yr QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Mar 3, 2011 -> 01:39 AM) It's a minor league contract. He will be assigned to the minors if he doesn't make the roster. For him to be added to the 25-man roster, he also had to be added to the 40-man. I have no idea what his option situation is right now, but I imagine he is out of options, so if the Sox were to add him and then drop him, he'd have to be exposed to waivers to be sent down. There may be an out-clause in his contract that if he isn't on the 25-man by some point in the season he can ask for his release, but with someone that young and unproven, I really tend to doubt it. He is out of options.

March 3, 201115 yr QUOTE (Kalapse @ Mar 3, 2011 -> 11:16 AM) He is out of options. Do you need an option if you sign a minor league deal?
March 3, 201115 yr QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 3, 2011 -> 11:35 AM) Do you need an option if you sign a minor league deal? No but if he's added to the major league roster any time this season he can't be sent down without first passing through waivers.
March 4, 201115 yr QUOTE (Kalapse @ Mar 3, 2011 -> 11:49 AM) No but if he's added to the major league roster any time this season he can't be sent down without first passing through waivers. Which I am sure it is inevitable that we will call up another OF at some point for an injury, or something.

March 4, 201115 yr QUOTE (Leonard Zelig @ Mar 4, 2011 -> 09:24 AM) If somebody got injured he would not need to be sent down. After that player got healthy he would need to be sent down.
March 4, 201115 yr QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 4, 2011 -> 10:14 AM) After that player got healthy he would need to be sent down. You meant if he started in the minors, I guess. Yeah, I don't see this working out for him with Lillibridge & DeAza. He will have to really put it together the next few weeks.

March 5, 201115 yr If he proves that he can hit, I think that Milledge can a much better option to De Aza.

March 28, 201114 yr QUOTE (T R U @ Feb 8, 2011 -> 02:21 AM) I think you people are getting way too excited, ide be willing to bet he doesn't even make the roster QUOTE (Chet Kincaid @ Feb 8, 2011 -> 09:57 AM) I'll take some of that action... AVATAR BET! If Milledge makes the team, I get to pick your avatar and you have to keep it for 30 days. And if he doesn't, you can pick mine. QUOTE (T R U @ Feb 8, 2011 -> 02:16 PM) You sir, have a deal This was a bad bet for TRU to make
March 28, 201114 yr QUOTE (Chet Kincaid @ Mar 28, 2011 -> 12:33 PM) This was a bad bet for TRU to make Just throwing this out there, but TRU is a Heat fan.

March 28, 201114 yr meh, if it wasn't for the pitching situation Lillibridge would have made it over him.. but its cool I shall honor my bet.. what is this for like a month?
March 28, 201114 yr How about until Milledge is off the roster? Might be a week, or it might be ten years.
