He'll be up in July or August.

August roto (if Fulmer, all rotation is part of the future)

1) Rodon 2) Kopech 3) Lopez 4) Giolito 5) Fulmer

August bullpen

RP Burdi RP Hamilton RP Bummer (at least 3/7 part of the future)

August lineup

1B Abreu 2B Moncada SS Anderson LF Jimenez - at least 4/9 will be part of the future. Maybe Sanchez or Davidson can have roles too.

Things are starting to come together. Just have to keep in mind the Sox are 29th in payroll with $24.75 million coming off the books via Shields, Soria, MiGo and Santiago.  

Burdi won't pitch this year.

Yup. Send Basabe, Call and Booker to AA, send Eloy to AAA, send Luis Gonzalez and Robert to A+ and shut down Micker in time so he could be ready for opening day next year even with a minor set back.

Charlotte - LF - Jimenez CF - Tilson RF - Cordell

BHAM - LF - Booker CF - Basabe RF - Call. Polo mixes in they and all rotate to DH. Cut Barnum and put Fisher at 1B. 

W-S - LF Luis Gonzalez CF Robert RF - Rutherford. Adolfo handles DH until he needs to shut it down.

I dig that alot

Side note not on the topic of outfielders but they may deserve a call up to AAA in the not too distant future, there is still time and a chance for him.

I've said it a few times now over the last 10 days, but by August this team will be bad, but fun to watch come August. 

Yeah, this should be our worst stretch.  Still too many fringe guys or veterans who basically have no shot of being on our next good team.  Watching young players develop can be painful at times but is ultimately rewarding.

no reason to rush people right now. let them develop.....the tankathon needs to continue at the big league level....just think - its possible that in little over 1 year - to add to our already ridiculous system - we will be adding another #4 overall pick (just for reference - we have only drafted in the top 5 once since 1990 - rodon) and likely will be adding another top 5 (possibly top 3, potentially evne number 1) pick .

They already have the extra year of control. That happened in April.

They have the right to play him a full season in the minors at age 21, and then hold off a few weeks next year. It’s been done many times.

As is the saying...

It gets better.

Wait, I missed this.  What happened?

He was pinch-hit for with the bases loaded. I wasn't watching, so I didn't hear if the announcers said anything, or if he had played defense the inning prior. Nothing on twitter other than those speculating he is being called up to AAA, although doing that mid-game would be weird.
