Wonder is this is Cease related?

He's had a rough go of things at the AAA level. Seems like a middle relief option if he can ever figure out how to keep the ball in the park.

Agreed. Really hope he hits the ground running.

I know that's an incredibly stupid reason to keep a guy rostered, but I can't see the Sox cutting ties with him until his event is over. https://www.mlb.com/whitesox/charities/support/basebowl-tournament

Is it common for teams to DFA hurt players? I honestly can’t think of any team ever doing that. I feel like the MLBPA would be all over them if they did that to Delmonico.

Guess that means Delmonico or Adolfo to the 60 day? They'll need to clear a spot.

I tend to believe we'd see Jirschele over Vizquel, but the way they keep moving Vizquel with the glut of prospects seems like a hint of the future direction of the manager position. I just can't seem to see how Ricky is replaced. JR and his undying loyalty reaches levels of ridiculousness one can't comprehend.

Can't say I know much about this guy, seems like he can't hit the side of a barn though.

I was debating getting this. I listen to Effectively Wild podcast, so I've heard plenty about it. I wonder if the Sox were one of the teams willing to share some insight or one of the ones that refused to speak.

Sanchez belongs on the bench, there isn't a reason he should be starting at this point. Madrigal needs to force his way onto the roster. Get a guy that will help the club win and not break the bank, and if/when Madrigal is ready, you can always move him to a contender. Gennett is going to need to re-establish his value, so why not for the Sox?

I would love the Sox target Gennett for 2B next year. All on board with him being an under-the-radar type get next offseason similar to what the Twins did with Schoop.

He belongs on the Sox. He cannot be any worse than Alonso.

Not good if that's the case. Sox better spend big on some arms this offseason.

I think the 9 spot makes a lot of sense, especially if Moncada stays in the 2 spot. Robert kind of is a wildcard though. I could see him leading off or be a solid middle of the order bat.

Maybe Luis Robert and Archie Bradley now share something in common ? ?

He has been disappointing to their defense, but the kid is still just 22. Everyone needs to learn to have more patience.

Wasn’t this one of the weakest pitching drafts, or was it just at the college level? Thompson seems like a project, almost like a poor man’s Alec Hansen.

That can’t be comforting. Lance fucking Broadway....

Tim Anderson hates him.

He’s literally the worst.

First, who is that? Second, how in the hell does one throw a baseball in such a manner?

Palka Bomb!

Doesn’t that almost leave it between Witt or Abrams?

I’d love to know who Hostetler was referring to on the White Sox Talk podcast as the player who did not impress the team during the interview process. Would be really interesting if it was one of the top guys like Vaughn or another lower guy like Lodolo. I’m so torn on who I’d prefer the Sox to take. Vaughn’s hitting ability seems like a perfect fit, but Abrams overall ability would be a nice add into the system.

Cease is listed as being the probable starter on Tuesday according to the Knights homepage.
