Sleepy Harold Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 Chicago White Sox @whitesox Prior to tonight’s game, the #WhiteSox placed Geovany Soto on the 10-day DL and purchased the contract of Kevan Smith from Charlotte. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too bad. Geo can't make it through a season without the DL. Hopefully he recovers soon, or Kevan Smith breaks out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully Kevan gets a good shot to play so we can see what he's got, also didn't want to start a new thread for this since I'm already 0-1 today lol.

southsider2k5 Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 The one thing that sucks here is that we also have to add Smith back to the 40 man roster, so we lose that slot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chw42 Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 Hopefully Smith stays healthy for more than one game this time around. He got called up last year and got hurt immediately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flavum Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 It's going to be interesting to see how many individual 10-day DLs there are going to be this year compared to recent years of the 15-day DL. Can you say, "considerable spike"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shipps Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Apr 13, 2017 -> 02:49 PM) Why is that? I will say its mostly of what I seen of him offensively in ST up close. He was so unimpressive I walked away shaking my head thinking this guy has no offensive ability whatsoever. Didnt look like he belonged with major leaguers. Mind you, he is a catcher so offense is not as important and it was just a few days of seeing him that I came to this opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The worst was watching him work on the back fields. I really don't want to come off as some Smith basher because I am not angry they brought him up or anything. I just personally dont think he belongs in the ML's but they really don't have any other options. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just personally dont think he belongs in the ML's but they really don't have any other options. That's just it. You're talking third catcher on a rebuilding team here with little catching depth (yes, I'm aware of Zack Collins but referring to MLB-ready talent).

kwill Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 Our leading home run hitter hurt. Bad luck again for the Sox. We can look back on this as the reason we didn't win the division. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shipps Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 Smith did hit a ball hard last night. I will give him credit for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
