ChiSox59 Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 (edited) Realistic possibilities are as follows: Rymer Liriano Tyler Danish Rob Brantley Danny Farquhar David Holmberg Lucas Giolito Carson Fulmer Jacob May Brian Clark Connor Walsh Michael Ynoa Matt Purke Mark Lowe Danny Hayes DJ Peterson I suspect Covey will be added tomorrow, and whoever goes down will come back up in September. Willy and Davidson will be back on the roster when they get off the DL. Though I suppose Willy may not be back this year. Obviously they won't add all those guys. My guesses are as follows: Rymer Liriano Tyler Danish Rob Brantley Danny Farquhar David Holmberg Edited August 14, 2017 by ChiSox59 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greg775 Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 Jacob May. He's 25 and running out of time. Poor guy. His career MLB stats 2 for 36 with three walks. Former third round draft pick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winninguglyin83 Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 Brantley not on the 40-man. Don't expect him to come up. What's the point? I think Liriano has a chance. They need to make a decision on keeping him. Just named IL player of the week. I expect Covey, Giolito, Liriano and maybe Danish or Fulmer.

BigHurt3515 Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 I would like to see Danish coming out of the bullpen a lot and see how that role fits him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No point in letting him take ABs from the young guys who are fighting for future spots. He's a good guy to have if you want your AAA team to be competitive, though.

They'll call up a third catcher. Every team does. They have room on the 40-man and will just release him after season.

KnightsOnMintSt Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 Would like to see Danish. He is a guy that will come out of the pen in the future. Mind as well get him innings in low pressure situations. Same with Fulmer. Giolito is a guy that I would like to see up with the White Sox because I want him to work with Cooper. Give him like 4 starts with the Sox, and just let him soak in the MLB experience. Then start him in Charlotte next year and see if he can come out blazing from the start.

It was quite literally the first thing he said when asked about September call ups. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmags Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 Probably will be brantley but maybe Perez gets call? He's hit as you'd expect but would like to see how his defensive reputation looks in real life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChiSox59 Posted August 15, 2017 Author Share Posted August 15, 2017 QUOTE (winninguglyin83 @ Aug 14, 2017 -> 08:28 PM) Brantley not on the 40-man. Don't expect him to come up. What's the point? Its either Alfredo Gonzalez or Rob Brantley. Alfredo Gonzalez is on the 40 man, but is OPSing .600 in AA. Brantley will be added to the 40 man, and then removed again after the season. If they really needed a spot, they could DFA Gonzalez now instead of after the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We aren't competing anytime soon we don't need to stash veteran depth in AAA. I guess they thought he was promising enough to give him a shot in a rebuilding year. On paper, a power hitting 3B/1B/corner OF sounds good. Delmonico has been doing well as the same type of player, though I doubt he can play 3B in the ML outside of emergency situations. And as for keeping Asche around after we DFA'd him, it's probably just to round out our AAA roster. Same with guys like Everth Cabrera, Tyler Ladendorf, Jason Bourgeois and all those old, washed up relievers we've been acquiring recently.

ChiSox59 Posted August 31, 2017 Author Share Posted August 31, 2017 Should be hearing the names soon. Liriano and Goldberg for sure. Lopez back from DL. Clark and Walsh maybe? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flavum Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 (edited) 18 pitchers on the 40-man. Except Jones, they'll probably all be in Chicago by next Tuesday. Not a fan of roster expansion. At the very least, there should be a daily limit on the active roster. Edited August 31, 2017 by flavum Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleHurt05 Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Time for yearly rant that September roster expansion is the stupidest rule in baseball. Let's play 5 months by one rule then change for the stretch run!! It's become even more significant in the modern bullpen overuse age. /rant Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
