My understanding based on search this weekend: A minor league player can be placed on the 7 day Minor League IL. If they are injured on the minor league roster, they can be placed on a minor league 60 day IL list. However, to open up a roster space on the 40 man roster, a player must be added to the major league roster before being placed on the major league 60 day IL. A player placed on the 60 major league IL continues to earn compensation and service time credits. The Sox did not want to pay Gonzalez so he was released. Hope this helps.

They plan on re-signing him much like they did Tyler Johnson a few weeks ago, seems more procedural in order to free up a spot from a guy who will not play the rest of the year. I don't think they decided anything about his future yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think @KnightsOnMintSt trusts Patrick Howard. Pretty sure of it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think they decided anything about his future yet Hope you're right, because he seems like a great kid, but he hasn't had a really good year for a while, and with the emergence of Vaughn, Sheets, and Burger in the outfield, plus Micker and Cespedes and hopefully Colas, I don't see him ever again getting onto the Big Club here.

You just keep developing guys for trade chips and stuff. It doesn't matter if they don't have a big league future with the Sox, they can still have value to the organization Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
