White Sox reclamation projects Wang, Hanson and Boggs

White Sox need their own Dance Team (who were those girls before, the Chevy t-shirt ones?)...Charlotte Knightengales

Garcia with his 2nd double.

 

13/25.... .520

 

Please release DeAza and bring him back so there can be a reason to watch the White Sox again.

 

 

And no-doubt homer #28 for Andy Wilkins. Brad Eldred had 35, 7 to go to catch him.

Jarrett Casey doing an admirable job at pursuing the worst zero point something ERA ever

Micah got caught stealing home.

 

Avi was replaced in RF after 3 ABs. Not sure if that was be design or not.

Avi came out of the game. Gonna go ahead and assume he took a fastball to the head and is dead. RIP.

Davidson almost hit a homer, then hit a double over the bag down the 3B line. 3 hits today, Wilkins has 2 (another homer, of course).

 

Mitchell's rebounded to have a pretty good game, although his throwing from the OF can use a ton of work.

Maybe Avi's heading to meet up with the team lol.

Avi for De Aza or Viciedo or Sierra

Wilkins for Dunn

Any two of Semien, Sanchez and Johnson for Beckham and Leury

 

Should have been watching this for a week already now. Make it change soon, RH.

They're not going to waive or send down Viciedo.

 

They are much more likely to do that (DFA) with DeAza, IMO. Or simply send down Sierra until September. DeAza HAS to be living on borrowed time, one would think.

Beckham, Leury, De Aza and Dunn should all have seen their last PA's in Sox uni, is the gist of it. These are opportunities wasted, and it's making a poor midseason for the rebuild (so far) worse.

At this point I can't wait until Sept 1st to see some of these guys

Leury's spot is irrelevant unless it would have been Saladino, as those guys in AAA (Micah, Marcus and Carlos Sanchez) need to be getting regular at-bats and wouldn't even if they were promoted.

 

Whether Marcus or Carlos could benefit from sitting on the bench again, that's arguable. They wouldn't do it with Semien, so it's really do you want Carlos Sanchez to be playing 1-2 times per week instead of Leury Garcia?

DeAza HAS to be living on borrowed time, one would think.

 

De Aza's batting .283 with a .765 OPS against righties on the season. You would think some NL team could use that platoon bat.

If he was VERY GOOD defensively, but he's not.

 

Otherwise, I'd want a guy with an 800+ split against righties for a platoon partner. He also doesn't steal nearly as much as he used to...although part of that's due to his position in the batting order.

Pretty sure the Sox can't send down Sierra. I think that's how the Sox got him from TOR to begin with. I hope it's De Aza.

Add in platooning with Gillaspie, giving Lexi a day off here and there, and a few looks in the OF for Marcus, and there's plenty of AB's for both him and either Sanchez or Johnson IF Beckham AND Leury are removed from the equation as they already should have been.

 

If Leury's ever going to be a legit major leaguer of any sort, he needs the regular AB's the most anyway, and he can get them in Charlotte.

It's a risk, another team COULD claim him. Maybe a 75% chance he makes it through without being claimed. He does have a 766 OPS with the Sox, so there's that.

 

All things considered, I would definitely DFA DeAza if I couldn't find anyone to claim his contract or willing to trade for him...regardless of the return, just trying to save $1-1.5 million or whatever.

I guess everyone is watching the Bears but Frankie Montas apparently started the AZL Sox game.

Montas - 2IP, 0H, 0R, 3BB, 4K

 

Adams in now.

Adams now with a 48/2 strikeout to walk ratio
