southsider2k5 Posted October 10, 2012 Share Posted October 10, 2012 QUOTE (floridafan @ Oct 9, 2012 -> 08:57 PM) I get the updates on the instructionals from my son! He hit a double and lined out to deep RF. And he is on his way anyway, lol! Thank you for the AFL link though, I am following it now! Any chance you could get a hold of a roster from down there?

NorthSideSox72 Posted October 10, 2012 Author Share Posted October 10, 2012 Maybe we should have daily threads for the AFL games, like we do the minor league games. Anyway... Salt River 6, Mesa 5 Sanchez: 1-3, R, BB, K Thompson: 1-2, 2 RBI, R, 2 BB, CS(PO) Wilkins: 1-4, HR, K S Rodriguez: 0.2 IP, 2 H, 2 ER, 2 BB, 0 K Pretty good opener for Sox hitters... not so much for their pitcher.

danman31 Posted October 10, 2012 Share Posted October 10, 2012 I'm going to be updating the FutureSox twitter (@FutureSox) with game recaps like we had throughout the minor league season for those that are interested and aren't already following the account.

NorthSideSox72 Posted October 11, 2012 Author Share Posted October 11, 2012 Salt River 11, Mesa 3 Tr Thompson: 0-3, 2 BB, K, CS Sal Sanchez: 1.1 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 2 BB, 0 K Ta Thompson: 1 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 2 K Only 365 people watched the game. Kind of surprised they don't get more people than that. I think that leaves just Rienzo in terms of Sox players not yet played. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorthSideSox72 Posted October 12, 2012 Author Share Posted October 12, 2012 Salt River 6, Scottsdale 5 C Sanchez: 3-4, RBI, R, BB, K, 2 SB Wilkins: 3-5, 2B, 2 RBI, R, K White Sox hitters in Arizona apparently came to play. The three of them, despite playing only 2 games each, have knocked in 6 of the team's 22 runs, and have 9 of their 32 hits, helping Salt River stay undefeated so far. Sanchez has been playing 2B so far, for what its worth. And Trayce Thompson has 4 walks in 2 games, against just 1 K (9 PA). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The difference there isn't all that big, but his fastball is more or less why he's a prospect. He's got good velocity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Salt River plays today (Monday) at 1:35pm Central time. Should see Sanchez in the lineup, possibly see Santos Rodriguez pitching. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsider2k5 Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 http://www.csnchicago.com/baseball-chicago...tm_medium=email DAN HAYES Several White Sox farmhands are off to strong starts in Arizona Fall League play, including top organizational prospects Carlos Sanchez and Andre Rienzo. Sanchez, an infielder who advanced to Triple-A Charlotte this season after starting at Single-A Winston-Salem, is 4-for-11 with a walk, two runs and two stolen bases in his first three games for the Salt River Rafters. Sanchez, 20, plays mostly shortstop and second base but also has mixed in time at third base, too. MLB.com ranked Sanchez the No. 7 prospect in the franchise before 2012, in which he had a .378 OBP and .403 slugging percentage in the minors and finished hitting .323 with 56 RBIs and 26 stolen bases. Brazilian pitcher Andre Rienzo -- who earlier in 2012 served a 50-game suspension for use of performance enhancing drugs -- struck out five in three shutout innings on Friday. Rienzo, who was rated the Sox 18th best prospect, featured a 93-95 mph fastball and a sharp cutter in his outing, according to ESPN.com’s Keith Law. Rienzo was 7-3 with a 2.53 ERA in 18 starts between Winston-Salem, Double-A Birmingham and Charlotte this season with 113 strikeouts in 103 1/3 innings. Andy Wilkins, a fifth-round pick in the 2010 amateur baseball draft, is 6-for-13 (.462) with two doubles, a homer and three RBIs in three games. Wilkins, 24, had a .335/.425/.760 slash line and hit 17 homers at Birmingham this season. Top prospect Trayce Thompson, 21, is only 1-for-8 with two RBIs but has drawn four walks in three games. Thompson had 25 homers and 96 RBIs as he went from Winston-Salem to Charlotte this season to go along with a .253/.328/.482 slash line.

Otherwise, makes it look like he was quite studly his year at Birmingham. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
