NorthSideSox72 Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 QUOTE (Ozzie Ball @ Sep 22, 2009 -> 07:54 AM) Fernando Hernandez is the one I'm semi-certain will be a FA. David Cook was already one last year I believe, so he'd be as well, unless he signed a multi-year minor league deal. I'm guessing Wassermann probably as well.

southsider2k5 Posted September 22, 2009 Author Share Posted September 22, 2009 I think it comes after being a six year minor leaguer, correct? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think its more complicated - I think there is an age factor there too, but I don't know what it is. Guys in the Sox system with 6 minor league seasons in, that I can find... Cole Armstrong Josh Kroeger Andy Cannizaro Donny Lucy David Cook Wes Whisler Carlos Torres Lucas Harrell*** (due to missing time to injury, I am not sure he falls in here) Ehren Wassermann Fernando Hernandez So those would be the ones we need to fish or cut bait on.

witesoxfan Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 I also believe it has something to do with being on the 40-man roster as well. Once you are on the 40-man, you will remain in team control for a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ken Harrelson Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 I've been saying this ever since I saw him in the minors. C.J. Retherford is somethin' special. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danman31 Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 Somewhat old news, but MLB is making a junior AFL type league. Sounds like it will happen in 2010 if they can finalize the details in time. This year 8 teams have put together an informal version, the White Sox are one. Here is a video explaining the situation.

danman31 Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 I stumbled upon an old BA article (well a month old) for subscribers talking about a virtual AA championship between the Barons and the Akron Aeros. Those with a subscription can check it out here. Basically, the Barons media relations guy was tracking best records in the minors and realized it was the Barons and Akros for a while as the top 2. Through whatifsports.com they had a virtual best of 7 series. The rosters were any player other than rehabs that played for the team at any part of the season. If you search barons on whatifsports.com you will find the box score and PBP for the whole series. It's a neat idea. For a spoiler, the Barons win in 7 and Dan Hudson takes a no-hitter into the 9th, losing it on a groundball with one out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Springfield Soxfan Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 From Baseball America, does this mean that Harrell, Link, Marquez, Santeliz, Armstrong and Viciedo cannot be exposed to the Rule V draft? Not sure, especially with Viciedo, but he might be in a different circumstance. Chicago White Sox Signed: RHP Jacob Marceaux (re-signed), LHP Wander Perez (re-signed) Granted free agency: 1B Wilson Betemit Recalled: RHP Lucas Harrell, RHP Jon Link, RHP Jeff Marquez, RHP Clevelan Santeliz, C Cole Armstrong, 3B Dayan Viciedo Outrighted to Triple-A and removed from 40-man: OF Dewayne Wise Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorthSideSox72 Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 A note to all your FS posters, who have AAP's - the offseason is a good time to update your AAP threads. A lot of them are pretty stale in there, which is a shame, because we link to those threads from futuresox.com and all over SoxTalk - let's keep this area up to date!

Springfield Soxfan Posted December 27, 2009 Share Posted December 27, 2009 Yes, I agree, Broadway could see some major league time last year. He was traded by the Sox when he was on the roster and went to Mets Triple AAA, glad he's gone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
basebllrcks Posted December 28, 2009 Share Posted December 28, 2009 QUOTE (flavum @ Dec 3, 2009 -> 09:50 AM) http://chicago.whitesox.mlb.com/news/artic...sp&c_id=cws Not sure about the headline saying Thompson is on the fast track to the majors, but whatever. I'm not too sure about Thompson getting fast tracked to the majors. I watched him the last couple weeks in Great Falls this year and he didn't look very settled in the outfield and pretty timid at the plate. Granted, he was fresh out of high school and probably still wide eyed after only a month in the minors. Rumors I heard around Great Falls at the end of the season was that he was probably coming back to Great Falls to be the starting center fielder next year. That would be a good move for him, get him settled into one location for a couple months and see how he does, heck he's only 19, he'll be fun to watch next year.
