GGajewski18 Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 27 years old. Finally has earned his way up to the show. Good for him. He was the only one in the Charlotte bullpen having a decent year. 2.81 era on the season with 53 Ks in 48 innings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackSox13 Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 Welcome Thompson . If Paulino is headed to the 60 day DL, I think maybe the Sox end up releasing him in the near future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

winninguglyin83 Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 looks as if his control has improved the last two seasons. if he can throw strikes, that will put him ahead of several others with coop. didn't see this coming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2nd_city_saint787 Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 Kinda called this one yesterday. With Rienzo starting just yesterday, he's the only one that really makes sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OilCan Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 ......and I didn't see this thread, and copied FutureSox's tweets about Thompson's promotions in other threads. Sorry guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsider2k5 Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 Doug Padilla @ESPNChiSox 32m Thompson was a 44th round pick in 2009. At age 27 he brought back his split-finger pitch and here he is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 DJ and Farmer only called him Trayce Thompson once during the broadcast. Maybe they'll come around if he sticks long enough on the roster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
