But the rest of the article... We added Owens, Young, Stewart, Haigwood, and Haeger to the 40-man roster. I believe that Borchard, Gload, and Anderson were already on that roster, though i can't find an official list to check.

YASNY Posted November 19, 2005 Share Posted November 19, 2005 For some reason, the name Chris Stewart is not ringing a bell with me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been following him for a while. Was always regarded with defensive ability but this was the first year his bat started to come around as he repeated Birmingham. I'll be a little surprised if he does not start in Charlotte so the Sox can see if his improvement is the real deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interestingly, unless I counted wrong, there are 39 players on there. Hm... So, the 40-man deadline has passed, and the Sox still have 39 people on their 40-man roster. Does this seem a little weird to anyone? Why would you not use all those slots to protect prospects, if nothing else? Is this a typo on MLB, or does it hint at something else? Any ideas, anyone?

Very simply, so they can add another player, whether it be via trade or free agency. Also keep in mind that the Sox own free agents, namely Thomas and Konerko, are not counted on the 40-man at this point. Putting a Minor League player on the 40-man and then taking him off shortly after can be a bad move. It is easier for a team to take a player off of waivers that is being taken off the 40-man than it is to select him in the Rule 5 draft.

I figured it would be better to protect them while you could, but if that means putting him on waivers, I see why that may not be smart. Thanks.
