flavum Posted April 7, 2015 Share Posted April 7, 2015 QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Apr 6, 2015 -> 06:35 PM) When the hell will these full rosters be announced? Probably Wednesday. Rodon is starting Saturday. After that, he should be on the same schedule as Danks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthSideSox72 Posted April 7, 2015 Share Posted April 7, 2015 The White Sox are notoriously late with these. Last year the rosters were being finalized as the first games were starting (which would be Thursday). Sucks when I have to write the damn affiliate previews without rosters, haha. Taking my best guesses with a big board spreadsheet I'm putting together. I've got Charlotte pretty much pegged, thanks to some help from a Charlotte Observer beat writer. A couple pitching slots are still questions, in part based on if EJohnson starts on DL. But here is what I have for Charlotte at this point, which is solid except for two slots: Starters... Kevan Smith Dan Black LGarcia**(CS) Tyler Saladino Matt Davidson Trayce Thompson Engel Beltre Jared Mitchell Neftali Soto Bench... Rob Brantly © George Kottaras © Juan Diaz Matt Tuiasosopo SPs... Carlos Rodon* Chris Beck Scott Carroll Brad Penny Shawn Haviland RPs... Daniel Webb Jairo Ascencio Arcenio Leon Maikel Cleto Onelki Garcia???? Zach Phillips* Jarrett Casey* DL: Jesse Crain, Erik Johnson The ones with ???? aren't confirmed yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GreenSox Posted April 7, 2015 Share Posted April 7, 2015 (edited) QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Apr 7, 2015 -> 07:59 AM) Onelki Garcia???? He's on that Birmingham roster - kind of surprised me. Speaking of Bham, I'm looking for some growth from Myles Jaye this year. AA stymied him, but I think he'll improve.

Where did you get it? I don't see anything official on their site yet. EDIT: NVM, opened now. Looks like they re-signed Winiarski after releasing him, that's interesting. Also they are double-promoting Danny Hayes? Wow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthSideSox72 Posted April 7, 2015 Share Posted April 7, 2015 This Barons squad looks like maybe the strongest of the full season teams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GGajewski18 Posted April 7, 2015 Share Posted April 7, 2015 Guys I don't see on the Barons anymore: Tony Bucciferro, Stephen McCray, Michael Ynoa (thought he was optioned there), Braulio Ortiz, Jefferson Olacio, and Terrance Marin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last year was a bit of a down year, but they did have Micah Johnson and Ravelo for most of the year. It depends on position availability, as a lot of clubs have quadruple A veteran players fitting spots on AAA rosters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rotation of AA I am going to love: Montas, Danish, Recchia, Wendelken and Jaye. That should be damn good. Interesting that Blackmer getting the call up in relief. He did well as a starter last year in Baltimore's high A. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McCray was released a while ago. Bucciferro is a marginal guy, so not a huge shock. Ynoa is the biggest surprise, along with Olacio. Marin and Ortiz a mild surprise too. But that roster has an open slot too - so one of them, like Ynoa, should be there. I suppose there is also a chance Winiarski isn't really on the club, that his name just bled over, since he was released at one point I thought.

They'll need one more guy, as you pointed out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorthSideSox72 Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 Trying to figure out the last couple roster spots in BHAM, particularly the starting 3B. They have 13 pitchers, so only a 3-man bench. The scenarios seem to be: --25th man is Nick Basto, starts at 3B, Farrell goes to bench where he usually is --25th man is Josh Richmond so they have an OF on the bench, Farrell starts at 3B --25th man is an org guy like Justin Jirschele to help Marcus Lemon cover the field from the bench, Farrell starts at 3B --25th man is Nick Delmonico, starts at 3B, Farrell goes to bench Those are the only scenarios I can think of. The open slots are 3B and a bench spot, and Michalczewski is going to W-S. Any other possibilities I am missing? Which do you think is likely? I reached out to Basto to see if he can tell me where he's headed, also going to try the other guys I think. See if anyone answers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthSideSox72 Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 Basto is going to Winston (he told me), so he's out. Richmond said he broke his ankle in camp, out until May, so obviously not him. Sent a note to Jirschele, waiting to hear back. Don't have contact info for Delmonico. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like Basto in WS, he'll only be 21 I believe. Are the Sox high on him? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
