October 1, 201114 yr I am underwhelmed by our two acquisitions from the Marlins. And, if we keep them, they are on the 40 Man roster, right?

I think most people were just happy to get anything. I know I was. No they will be in the minors unless the Sox choose otherwise.

They are on the 40 man roster already. If they end up doing anything for the Sox it will be a bonus as they don't have to pay Ozzie in 2012.

I remember when Lou Piniella went from Seattle Manager to Tampa Bay, the Mariners got a quality ML player -- can't think if his name. Does anybody on the board know his name?
October 2, 201114 yr I just now looked at the 40 man roster, and, yes, both new players are on it. Who got bumped off? Lucy and I think Nunez (or Marquez)...one of the two crappy pitchers from the Swisher deal.

October 3, 201114 yr I don't mind these guys. The pitcher throws 100. He could be Bobby Jenks, he could be Andy Sisco. The infielder had a bad year, but seems like a guy who will play in the big leagues. All that for a guy who quit. So basically for nothing. Not bad. Edited October 3, 201114 yr by Dick Allen

Looking at our farm system, they'll be ranked top 10 prospects. Who were you hoping for? Matt Ginter?

October 6, 201114 yr QUOTE (oldsox @ Oct 6, 2011 -> 10:42 AM) Does anyone know who we chopped off the 40 Man Roster? 09/29/11 Chicago White Sox outrighted Jhonny Nunez to Charlotte Knights. Chicago White Sox outrighted Donny Lucy to Charlotte Knights. Florida Marlins traded RHP Jhan Marinez and SS Osvaldo Martinez to Chicago White Sox and Bristol White Sox traded Ricardo Andres to Greensboro Grasshoppers.
