MnSoxFan Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ May 23, 2014 -> 05:36 PM) Yeah but Ortiz and Lowry are intriguing arms, and Lowry's had one start - and has a 1.80 ERA. Jaye still has potential too. Yes, I agree on Lowry and Ortiz. Jaye has never intrigued me, not sure why, gut feel I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/baseb...0,4531698.story Tale of two seasons, Micah Johnson and Davidson write-up from TRIB. Davidson seems like he's coming around, maybe the bruised thumb affected him more than he's letting on. Keeping the bigger picture in perspective, seemingly.

I hated him here and I hated when he resigned. Kind of a bizarre guy to hate. He played what, a couple dozen games total for the Sox? Hard to even remember a guy based off of that few games, much less hate him. It's not like we're talking about Keppinger here.

He was hitting well Basto is a pretty awful defensive infielder, has been all along. That's problem one. And while he was making good contact and hitting for average, he wasn't getting on base much, or hitting for much power, so he was hitting somewhat well but nothing to stand out. If he can't handle the position defensively, that's an issue. Also: Christian Stringer promoted to Kannapolis. I was surprised Shryock got that job over him to begin with, it will be interesting to see how they manage playing time in Kanny with Shryock and Stringer with Rondon there, and the need to give Kenny's kid playing time (ugh) as well. That kept Voight from full time play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fairness, he did actually start the season hot for a week or two. No he's back to being more or less what he was, which is not a guy who belongs getting starting time.

GreenSox Posted May 28, 2014 Share Posted May 28, 2014 Didn't we draft one of those Guillens a few years and he expressed indignation at either the contract offer, or that we had waited so late to draft him?

Jake Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 Yes, I believe that was Ozney. The allegation is that nobody wanted to draft him since it was common knowledge that we were going to draft him. When we "waited" until the 20th round to pick him, that was not indicative of his true value because if his last name was not Guillen he would have been taken much higher. That's what they said, at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what they said, at least. Yes, Ozney was considered a superior prospect, top 10 round talent, but nobody wanted him because of that. Ozzie got pissed because they waited to draft him till the 20th round. I believe that started over Oney too (draft KW Jr in the 5th but Ozney in the 20th hmmmm) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Y2Jimmy0 Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 Hitter of the Night: Tim Anderson, SS, White Sox (Winston-Salem, A+): 3-5, R, HR, K. Anderson has plus tools but is also extremely raw, which makes his .279 batting average somewhat impressive, but oh my goodness does his 42-to-4 K:BB rate scare me.
