Balta1701 Posted July 16, 2011 Share Posted July 16, 2011 Another walk for Viciedo! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ILMOU Posted July 17, 2011 Share Posted July 17, 2011 Kuhn 2-2, now at .373. They really need to give him more of a look in Charlotte than the lousy 7 games he just returned from. The IL and Southern League aren't that far apart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted July 17, 2011 Share Posted July 17, 2011 Petricka got rocked. Now 0-5. Mitchell hitless with a walk and K. Saladino with his 12th homer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JPN366 Posted July 17, 2011 Share Posted July 17, 2011 QUOTE (Stan Bahnsen @ Jul 16, 2011 -> 07:18 PM) Kuhn 2-2, now at .373. They really need to give him more of a look in Charlotte than the lousy 7 games he just returned from. The IL and Southern League aren't that far apart. Apparently he was very pissed and still is about being demoted. He and his wife had given up their leased apartment when he went up to Charlotte. Now they're living with another couple. The White Sox at least had the decency to fly him back, albeit on a red eye, to Birmingham. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder when they took his Charlotte photo - he looks pissed. http://web.minorleaguebaseball.com/milb/st...&pid=518906 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What, giving up an apartment after being called up? He's not exactly made a million dollars. Keeping an apt. in birmingham after moving to charlotte is a decent expense.

I use to live a few miles from there and it wasn't cheap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, I'm sure eveyone assumed he was. They took his picture in Charlotte, Kyle Shelton switched to his jersey. I think everyone was shocked that he was sent back down so soon.

Do they hear something like that first hand from someone in the Sox organization, or do they hear it from their current teams people? Do the players usually get told something is temporary until so and so comes off of the DL, or whatever? Who for the Sox is in charge of moving minor league players around when the situation arises?

I don't know, but I think everyone thought he'd be up longer than 7 games. He's effectively being blocked by Gookie Dawkins and Drew Garcia.
