WE confirmed Zavala at FS. I think Cease is a lock obviously and probably Medeiros too. We'll see Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChiSoxFanMike Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 Spencer Adams is such a disappointment. Yet another high draft pick that amounted to nothing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChiSox59 Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 40 man was certainly at 35 this morning. So adding 4 puts us at 39, not 38. Either a typo from Merk, or someone got DFA'd or outrighted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsider2k5 Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 Surprised at Stephens and not sure why he wasn't up in September if they viewed him as a piece going forward. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could also trade him or include him a bigger trade if the Sox think he has some value to other clubs. I don't find the move surprising at all.

ChiSoxFanMike Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 Apparently the Twins aren't putting Tyler Jay on the 40 man...he might be an interesting acquisition. Left handed and was a very high draft pick a few years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, I’m still pretty high on Stephens and would have been surprised if he wasn’t protected. I do think his future is probably in the bullpen due to a lack of durability. As long as the velocity picks up a couple ticks that should work fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
