GGajewski18 Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 Not surprised at all. No big loss in my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chetkincaid Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 Good minor leaguer but I remembered him struggling mightily when he got up here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BamaDoc Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 Logical guy to go but I think he may be successful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Sacamano Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 So basically it was Drabek for Wilkins Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiSoxFanMike Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 Meh, he was terrible anyway. Not that big of a loss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soxfest Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 Good luck to him he was not really long for Chicago anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balta1701 Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 I still think he could be a decent platoon 1b/DH but that's not a role every team needs. I'm ok keeping Drabek around for a bit and losing him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chitownsportsfan Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 Awesome, Wilkins is a dime a dozen career AAAA 1B. They have Dan Black for that role. If Jose and LaRoche are both injured for long stretches the team is f***ed anyways. Andy Wilkins isn't saving that day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Sacamano Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 They have Andy LaRoche for the roll too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreenSox Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 Why cut Wilkins before Brantley? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 I am not surprised Wilkins is gone, but I am surprised he was the first one gone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShandyMan Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 I could see them trying Davidson at 1B in an emergency role. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 QUOTE (staxx @ Mar 29, 2015 -> 05:33 PM) I could see them trying Davidson at 1B in an emergency role. I still think they'd prefer the relative "certainty" (725ish-800ish OPS) of Viciedo compared to risking the season giving Davidson another major league tryout.
