    So that last bullpen slot really is between Masset and Wassermann (even though they aren't the same type) - which means Masset.

     

    And with Lucy and Armstrong gone, that pretty much guarantees we have Toby Hall as the backup C, I think.

     

    Who does this leave in camp now?

     

    Pitchers(14): Buehrle, Carrasco, Contreras, Danks, Dotel, Floyd, Jenks, Linebrink, Logan, MacDougal, Masset, Thornton, Vazquez, Wassermann

     

    Catchers(3): Hall, Phillips, Pierzynski

     

    Infielders(8): Cabrera, Crede, Fields, Konerko, Ozuna, Ramirez, Richar, Uribe

     

    Outfielders(6): Anderson, Bourgeois, Dye, Owens, Quentin, Swisher

     

    DH(1): Thome

     

    In my opinion, Carrasco, Bourgeois, and Phillips are still around as an emergency situation.

     

    Masset will make the team as the long man, with Wassermann falling just short.

     

    A lot of the other moves are contingent on possible trades. Crede and Uribe are still trade possibilities. Anderson is a maybe. Quentin and Richar's health. A lot up in the air in the 8 days left in Arizona.

    Unless there is a trade, I think the pitching staff is set:

     

    Buehrle, Vazquez, Danks, Contreras, Floyd

     

    Masset, MacDougal, Logan, Thornton, Linebrink, Dotel, Jenks

     

    Wassermann and Ohka fall just short, but they'll be needed this year.

     

     

    Buehrle scratched from Saturday's start

    Has there been something wrong with Danks?

     

    He didn't pitch particularly great in a minor league camp game yesterday.

     

    Other than that, I think the reports have been good.

     

    I agree with the previous post about Oliver Stone.

     

    Something is in the works. I think maybe Masset is getting showcased for a trade.

     

    SOX CUT 12

    Thanks for saying that, I was wondering that after I saw that... The question now becomes, who are they targeting that they opened up a spot on the 40 man... Any theories?

     

    Possibly Tomo Ohka, but with possible trades of Crede, Uribe, Anderson, and Masset, I wouldn't read into this too much. For all we know, Vasquez may have had a b**** session in Guillen's office this morning when they were going to send him down, and KW just released him instead.

    That's not the camp list - that is the 40-man roster.

     

    Subtract the guys cut today.

    Then go to the non-roster list. Subtract the guys cut today.

    Then subtract Wes Whisler.

     

    39 left.

    I think that was a mistake on the writer's part. No way Ohka starts the season with the Sox unless there are injuries and trades.

     

    The staff right now is Buehrle, Vazquez, Danks, Contreras, Floyd, Masset, Logan, MacDougal, Thornton, Linebrink, Dotel, and Jenks.

     

    Wassermann is first in line if a move is made.

    My proposed idea: - Rickey Henderson...

    Not too many people do that. I'm the opposite. Even though I'm left handed I through right handed for some reason.

     

    OK--trivia:

     

    In the last ten years, name a White Sox player (not a pitcher) that throws left and bats right exclusively.

    But does he have to be optioned to start the year in Charlotte if he is not currently on the 25-man roster?

     

    I'm confused.

     

    The Sox have to get their 40-man down to 25 by March 30. If Masset doesn't make the team he'll be put on waivers, since he's out of minor league options.

    Since Masset is out of options...

     

    Does that mean he can't start the season with Charlotte (unless he clears waivers)?

     

    Or does it mean that he could start the the season in Charlotte, but if called up, he couldn't be returned to AAA without clearing waivers?

     

    When does an option get used? It's to move a player from the 25-man to the minor league roster isn't it?

     

    And he's not on the 25-man now.

     

    It means Masset can't be optioned to the minors without being placed on waivers. If a team claims him, they can have 10 days to make a deal. If nobody claims him, then MAsset can asked to be released or go back to Charlotte, which is unlikely.

     

    I think he'll be traded.
