Southern - BHAM - roster includes Tim Anderson, Joey DeMichele, Adrian Nieto and Frankie Montas. 7:20pm CT, on MiLB.tv Carolina - Winston-Salem - roster includes James Dykstra, Matt Heidenreich and Omar Narvaez. 9:35pm CT, no TV I can find South Atlantic - Kannapolis - roster includes Eddy Alvarez and Brett Austin. 6:35pm CT, no TV I can find. Trey Michalczewski was also a CAR All Star, but his back injury is keeping him out. Here's the rest of the schedule. Haviland for CHAR, Magallones for GTF, AZL is TBA
June 23, 201510 yr Author QUOTE (ChiSox59 @ Jun 23, 2015 -> 11:42 AM) How is Nieto an All Star? He is hitting .210. I wondered the same thing. Then again, how much catching depth is there in the minors across baseball? Very little. What other catchers in the SL, that aren't already also on that roster, would go in instead?

Nieto has the 2nd best OPS at .650. 3rd and 4th have a .570 and a .550.

That's what I'm sayin'. Catching depth is really hard to come by. Which is why I'd love to see the Sox shovel together enough money to sign Mike Hickman from this draft. Won't help them this year or next, but any chance at a potential starting (or better) catcher, you leap at it.

I think they have about $100k in savings so far if my math is right.

I think they have about $100k in savings so far if my math is right. See the post in thread I made about Quick Draft Update - all the gory math is in there. Even with Fulmer at slot, they could offer about 250k without tax penalty, or 425k with the penalty, to try to get Hickman.

June 24, 201510 yr Anderson with a 3B. Edit: add a double to that triple. Edited June 24, 201510 yr by BlackSox13
June 24, 201510 yr Author Anderson done for the game - 2-3, 3B, 2B, K. Austin also done - 1-2, K. The leadoff hitter for the SAL South is John Johnson. Who does that to their child?
June 24, 201510 yr Antonio Rodriguez: 2/2, HR This kid has a ton of potential, glad to see him get off to a solid start.
June 24, 201510 yr QUOTE (Joshua Strong @ Jun 23, 2015 -> 09:09 PM) Luis Castillo is with the DSL team at the moment. He hasn't been in the starting lneup yet for the ASL Sox, so I was starting to think he'd end up on the DSL roster.
June 24, 201510 yr Erwin making his pro debut with GF. Rodriguez already has 2 errors as an OF in 4 games. Comito also making debut with Arizona. Edited June 24, 201510 yr by SoxPride18
June 24, 201510 yr Jarvis 3-5, HR, 4 RBIs, 2 R Rodriguez 3-4, HR, RBI, 2R Velasquez 1-3 Erwin 2.1 2H 0ER 0BB 2K Comito with a scoreless 2 innings of work.

Nice to see these young guys raking at GF. Adolfo also 2-5 last night. If these guys have a month of success at their levels, I wouldn't be surprised to see them in Kanny.
June 24, 201510 yr QUOTE (flavum @ Jun 23, 2015 -> 09:42 PM) Crain scoreless inning. 1 hit, 1 bb, 2 k Any reports such as velocity, movement, or overall how he looked?
June 24, 201510 yr Author Recap posted. Sorry for the delay! Got some good stuff in there though, and a roster move from the DSL to the AZL.

Who does that to their child? There was a guy named John John. And he was the III. Crain is an extreme longshot...about the same as most AZL players, I would think.
