I think each time it’s the same order but not positive.

Shaw serves a purpose. That purpose is to be an available arm until several of these teams who are gaining players and have to DFA some decent players/prospects, have to pass them through waivers. If you can claim something better(hopefully) then he is DFA. I could see the Sox trying to claim 3-4 players. I believe claim order is inverse standings in your league then inverse standings in the other league.

https://www.mlb.com/prospects/stats/affiliates?teamId=145&date=07/29/2023 https://www.milb.com/scores/all/all/whitesox well, yesterday was more fun!

This points out how low our mlb depth is. We are playing several players short. Several acquiring teams are having to dfa players we could use. I anticipate several waiver claims just to fill out our roster.

So do you take multiple rule 5 guys? If you get a reliever or two and have a starting pitcher tryout camp? UGGGGG but what have you got to lose especially if one hits as a major league average guy for a couple years.

https://www.mlb.com/prospects/stats/affiliates?teamId=145&date=07/27/2023 https://www.milb.com/scores/all/all/whitesox Thanks Timmy. Not only wins but a trade!

All losses! Including the big club, a -30 run differential on the night. I am in the penalty box. Someone else do tomorrow’s games.

Today is the deadline for signing draftees and the Sox signed everyone! That is a start. By my rough count the Sox went over their pool by about 446k which is just below the 5% line penalty. Jerry et al pay a 75% tax on that. If you go over the 5%, you lose a first rounder. So since I give them crap for a lot of things, I suppose it is only fair to give them credit for spending. Time will tell if it was well spent. I did note only one 10k signing. Everyone else in rounds 11-20 were at least the 150k "max" without counting against your pool. A lot less punted picks which should give better depth and the chance for a wild card. Sorry Harold, I had done my cyphering before seeing your post.

https://www.mlb.com/prospects/stats/affiliates?teamId=145&date=07/22/2023 https://www.milb.com/scores/all/all/whitesox Almost went to the penalty box as the organization only won one game yesterday. Hopefully, better today.

Anyone know anything on Matt Archer? I see he is a UDFA. Older for ACL at 22 but hitting .391
