June 12, 201312 yr QUOTE (Jim Busby @ Jun 7, 2013 -> 05:46 PM) I did not know Don Copper was our HITTING Coach. Hitting is our problem not Pitching Then they should bring in better hitters. Gordon Ramsay can be your personal chef, but he can't turn chicken s*** into chicken dinner.
June 12, 201312 yr QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 10, 2013 -> 08:33 PM) Tim Anderson @TimAnderson7 23m I'm Gone Throw A Slider When I Throw The First Pitch at the sox game Wednesday..⚾⚾?? It's kind of funny that one of the few words he didn't capitalize is Sox, which is one that should be capitalized. Come on, Tim. That sentence made me cringe. That said, I hope he has a great career and I'll be rooting for him.
June 12, 201312 yr Jonathan Mayo @JonathanMayoB3 16m .@TimAnderson7 in Chicago for physical, throwing out first pitch for @whitesox. Deal expected to be for pick value ($2.164 mil) #MLBDraft
June 12, 201312 yr Glad to see he signed quickly. Where does he start off at? Kannapolis or Great Falls?

June 12, 201312 yr QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 12, 2013 -> 12:38 PM) I'm sure it will be rookie ball. That's what I would have guessed, although he'll probably get called up to Kannapolis at some point. When does rookie ball start?

June 12, 201312 yr Jim Callis @jimcallisBA 58m Some say yes, some say CF on T.Anderson. @chisox2727: long-term does he project to stay at SS? #WhiteSox #mlbdraft

Anderson, who was recommended by White Sox scout Warren Hughes, will begin his professional career with Advanced Rookie Bristol of the Appalachian League.
June 13, 201312 yr Are they going to send him out to Bristol or keep him in Chicago to wait for the next home series...so he can throw out the first pitch and do the obligatory media interviews? Or send him out to Bristol, bring him back to Chicago, then return him again? Maybe he has something on his twitter.
