Jake Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 There was a point in time when it looked like Retherford was a good ST and/or injury away from being a MLB ballplayer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorthSideSox72 Posted June 7, 2013 Author Share Posted June 7, 2013 Remember the recent talk about the 1B crowd at CHA and BHAM? Sox just traded Seth Loman to the BAL org, no word on return (could just be cash). I'd guess here that Black or Wilkins will go to Charlotte shortly.

Jake Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 Can anyone fill me in on the end of the Chase Blackwood saga? It seems like Bren disappeared from here and Chase disappeared from the MiLB without a trace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChiSox_Sonix Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 QUOTE (Jake @ Jun 16, 2013 -> 04:21 PM) Carlos Sanchez has been really disappointing this year. He's 20 years old in AAA. Offensively he hasn't been horrible and from reading accounts his defense has been very good. Let him play in Charlotte this year and next and see if he can play in the majors at the old age of 22 in 2015. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you're being a bit reactionary. Sanchez is the youngest of the three and it's not like Semien is setting the world on fire in AA. Sub .750 OPS.

I'm just not a fan of a player that projects to have absolutely no power playing 81 games in our park. By no means am I writing him off, I just think Johnson and Semien are better prospects.

He's far more likely to reach that level while Semien probably never plays in the Majors and Johnson is still a ways off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I'm not calling the youngest player in the league hitting .230 horrible. There are guys in the majors with worse averages than that. He's 20 years old still. It is way too early to judge him.

NorthSideSox72 Posted June 17, 2013 Author Share Posted June 17, 2013 No way I'd put Semien or Johnson above Sanchez - yet. And I've been a vocal Semien fan for a while now. Slow it down a bit, we're halfway through his season as the one of the youngest players in ALL OF AAA. QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 16, 2013 -> 09:54 AM) Hey NSS!
