OF Casper Wells is on another team today. Oakland #Athletics have traded Wells to #WhiteSox for cash. #Mariners

 

Someone please fix the title.

Needed a RH bench bat time to tell Wise goodbye.

This has been predicted for a couple of weeks now.

 

Any more news on Dayan's progress from the oblique injury?

How did a handful of people seem to know about this over the past week or so?

Just a logical fit.

I believe he was out on waivers a few days ago.

Sox will have to clear a spot on the 40 man roster to make room.

Wells was designated for assignment over the weekend for the third time in the last month. He'll serve as an extra outfielder for the Palehose.

Very nice, a perfect fit for what this team needed!!

In order to clear room on the 40-man roster, the White Sox placed left-hander Leyson Septimo back on the 60-day disabled list.

Per Mlbrumors

Perfect, though I hope this doesn't mean Dayan is further from returning. He probably has inside track to stay in place of one of Danks/Wise when all are healthy.

Yes, but I don't recall people saying we SHOULD get Casper Wells, but rather them saying we WOULD get him. Just seemed odd how sure they were, and they nailed it.

Can we fix the spelling in the title?

Thanks.

RH OF bat... any good?

He has shown some promise when first came up with Detroit. After that.. this is his 4th team this year.

So a scrub substitute... well let's hope he likes a change scenery.

Septimo must really be hurt. Wouldn't be surprised is he's on his way to TJ. 60-Day D.L. for a strain seems really steep.

To make room for Wells, Sox have returned LHP Leyson Septimo from his injury rehab assignment at @KnightsBaseball & put him on the 60-day DL

In nearly 600 MLB at-bats

 

.240ish average, 25 homers, 80 RBI's, 6 steals, 314 OBP and a whopping 171 K's

 

But a 746 OPS is at least average or decent, even at a corner OF spot. It's not abysmal...he's better than Danks, Tekotte, what we've seen of Wise so far and head and shoulders above the likes of Olmedo or Angel Sanchez as a bench player.

Sounds like a Sox player to me...

Wow, how often does the that people ask for, actually happen?

I will gladly take a .746 OPS out of our 4th outfielder even if it comes with a 28% K rate.

As soon as Wells has a bad game, the same people will call Rick Hahn an idiot for signing such a bad player. :lol:
