White Sox claim Shuck, activate Nate Jones

He still has options? Even better.

 

I have no idea, but I doubt he can refuse a minor league assignment and if someone claims him off waivers in the Spring, is anybody going to care?

He's fine as a bench player.

Can he play some CF?

Sometimes the backup plan is available before Plan A. I'm guessing Shuck is about Plan C.

 

Plan C is about rights. I was looking at it and I am guessing that

it wouldn't surprise me that the sox go with him as the only outfield

acquisition. I am still thinking they, the management is planning on

a huge int'l signing.

 

disclosure - I am in no way having any inside info. just a fatarse gut.

I would be beyond surprised if this is the only move they made for an outfielder.

Yeah, I don't think he kicked that guy at all. He was squirming over the wall and his cleat caught the guy's shirt, you can see him even look back to find out what he caught his foot on, and the fan didn't get mad like he had just been yelled at or kicked on purpose. I don't think there was anything wrong with what happened there at all.

I liked Nate Jones I thought he showed some great promise and was a cinch to make our bullpen until his back injury. I hope he can regain his form.

Odds are pretty good he would have been our closer last year,

Not sure how much I like it, but I'm beginning to think that they acquired Shuck to be the regular left fielder.

Maybe they intend to platoon him with Danks. Oddly enough, Shuck seems to hit lefties better, even though he's a left handed hitter

Danks has been pretty decent vs. RHP, and is still considered the best defensive outfielder in the organization.

If that's the plan, I wish they would move Avi to LF, when Danks starts, as he is unquestionably a better defender.

I would put the chances of the White Sox acquiring Shuck with the intention of him being the regular LF at 0%.

For sure -- this is a depth play. If Shuck is the primary starter out of ST, something went wrong.
