2nd_city_saint787 Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 The White Sox have outrighted outfielder Blake Tekotte and infielder Mike McDade, reducing their 40-man roster to 37, according to Colleen Kane of the Chicago Tribune (Twitter link). The 26-year-old Tekotte hit .226/.306/.355 with one homer (his first in the Majors) in 36 PAs for the Sox in 2013. He hit .236/.319/.389 in 338 Triple-A PAs. McDade, 24, batted .250/.313/.371 in 428 PAs between the Triple-A affiliates for the Indians and ChiSox in 2013. -MLBtraderumors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthSideSox72 Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 Makes sense. I don't even understand why they are keeping McDade at all. I'd much rather have Wilkins and Black get those AB's. Maybe McDade elects to not take the assignment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bjm676 Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 They need room for Belisario and possible Rule 5 pick. Makes sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gives them two open slots. Makes me think they have something in mind coming up soon, Rule V or otherwise. Or maybe I'm just hoping for something, haha.

CWSpalehoseCWS Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Only other WTF player on the 40-man is Heath. I still don't see what the Sox see in him. Nice to see McDade finally moved off for someone more deserving. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
