June 2, 201312 yr QUOTE (Cerbaho-WG @ Jun 2, 2013 -> 06:16 PM) Phegley in the lineup tonight. but not the lineup I'd like to see him in. I expect we will finally see Phegley in late July or early August.

June 2, 201312 yr QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Jun 2, 2013 -> 02:04 PM) Awesome. When's Barnum coming off the DL? Aiming for mid-June, after minors All-Star break

June 2, 201312 yr QUOTE (ChiSoxJon @ Jun 2, 2013 -> 01:35 PM) Aiming for mid-June, after minors All-Star break That's great news. At this point, even a half season at Kannapolis would have to be considered a victory for him.

If he stays healthy, he may still pop 15 over the fence for Kanny, if he struggles I'd assume he'll at least start 2014 in Kanny.
June 2, 201312 yr Another K for Hawkins. Saw the AB, looked lost on back-to-back breaking pitches well out of the zone.
June 2, 201312 yr QUOTE (Marty34 @ Jun 2, 2013 -> 02:28 PM) Another K for Hawkins. Saw the AB, looked lost on back-to-back breaking pitches well out of the zone. So we drafted a guy that can't hit breaking balls? Great
June 2, 201312 yr QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Jun 2, 2013 -> 02:49 PM) So we drafted a guy that can't hit breaking balls? Great The breaking pitches he struck out on in his second AB were really out of the zone. Troubling that he did not recognize them.

He's coming off the DL so he should be cut some slack. I do wonder what the plan is for him though as in why is he still in high-A.
June 2, 201312 yr You guys want high risk, high reward athletes who are the best player available at the time, can rise through the system rapidly, and become stars rapidly with no difficulties. And don't tweet too much about themselves. This does not compute.

The twitter complaints are admittedly dumb.

June 2, 201312 yr RBI Double for Hawkins in 4th AB. Took to breaking balls well out of zone, Hard grounder down third-base line on 2-0 fastball for double.
June 2, 201312 yr QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 2, 2013 -> 03:36 PM) Not just disappointed, people are blaming scouts for his failure already. That's admittedly super ignorant. I don't think anyone was blaming the scouts last year for his performance...
