White Sox Minor League Update
Salvador Sanchez, who spent six seasons as an outfielder, has converted to pitcher and is with Great Falls. Here's an article about him. Scouting report from his two outings so far is encouraging: fastball in the mid 90s with decent movement and he's also throwing a slider and change. Of course, he's really, really far away from the majors.

i see that stewart has it figured out as far as what is required to be a white sox starting pitcher.
no walks, scatter a bunch of hits without giving up a big one, tough loss.
might as well call him up now, he has nothing left to learn.
needs to learn the pickoff and tarp slide moves to advance to the next level

hey Larry...
by your assessment, is Addison Reed major league ready for a bullpen spot? Doesn’t seem he has much left to prove in the minors.
Sox bullpen is seemingly quite crowded after Frasor deal.
I cannot answer any more questions for you today. I has wickeds gas from drink too manys redbull.
aside from being young and playing a premium position...
do scouts say anything positive about salgado? Appears you are kinda fucked w/r/t/ Bristol.

5) Zach Stewart SP: Chicago White Sox for Edwin Jackson
Toronto swung Stewart to the White Sox in exchange for Jackson, then used Jackson as to distract St. Louis as they stole Colby Rasmus.
Quick tanget on that trade: Man, what a great move for the Blue Jays! Alex Anthopoulos will be the No. 1 pick in all fantasy GM drafts next spring. With Rasmus and Yunel Escobar I believe Anthopoulos has found the new market inefficiency: jerks. Not to say that Rasmus and/or Escobar are actually jerks, but they’re talented/young/cost-controlled players with impressive upside who’s on-field value was undervalued by their former clubs due largely to off-field matters. ‘Jerks’ sounds a lot better than that. What it lacks in nuance it makes up for in catchiness. I like it. I’m sticking with it. It’s not always choir boys who win. Give me talent. Tangent over, I now return you to your regularly scheduled prospect list.
Stewart works in the low-90’s with his sinking-fastball and has an above-average slider. His drew solid reviews for the improvement in his changeup at Double-A but has used it sparingly in his brief big league stay. If the improvement in his change makes its way to mound on the South Side, Stewart ought to be a very solid No. 3 starter and worm-burner.

If Stewart turned into a 3 or 4 that would be pretty nice.
"Rooting for the Twins is just a roundabout way of rooting for a first-round playoff bye for the Yankees." by big_fun
that's pretty different
from what he showed in those 3 starts. obvs you know this, just letting everyone else know that it seems like his scouting reports from the minors all sound better than what he showed in the majors.
So fast he could hit a ball up the middle and it would hit him in the ass sliding into second.
if it looks like a Jeff Marquez...

Worms reside on the ground.
Stewart will induce many groundballs. Annelids are very susceptible to friction.

With Paulie out this would be a good time for him to come up. Obviously he should have been up ages ago but no time like the present

While Walker's OBP is .400 over the 2 levels
He’s REALLY struggled in Kanny. Is he over his head or just struggling against new pitching?

Watching what showing up to US Cellular Field (my girlfriend asked if the Sox were playing tonight, and I responded that they were attending a game at the Cell, I didn’t know if they’d play) it has been and I might be a little punchy at results that look bad to the eye.
Also the Sox seemed to think that a little over a week of sample size was enough to call him up…

no. that's not what they seemed to think.
like they and every other team have done with countless other players, walker was eased into the pros against inferior competition.

I don't think its question on whether Milledge can hit mlb pitching. He's not AAAA
He has a .723 OPS over 1600 PA. He’s not the greatest but clearly he can play in the show.
"Rooting for the Twins is just a roundabout way of rooting for a first-round playoff bye for the Yankees." by big_fun
not with that defense.
rWAR is below replacement level with that line. fWAR he’s barely above. that’s an AAAA player. get over him already.
Perhaps I should give you a listing of the 25 man rosters around baseball
"Rooting for the Twins is just a roundabout way of rooting for a first-round playoff bye for the Yankees." by big_fun
What the hell is an AAAA player?
You are either in the show or your not.

Don't respond. I don't care.
I have more things to be pissy about then Lastings Milledge.
"Rooting for the Twins is just a roundabout way of rooting for a first-round playoff bye for the Yankees." by big_fun
"replacement level, i.e. AAAA players"
who, by definition, bounce back and forth between AAA and MLB. tweeners.
I could care less about Milledge
I am not tooting his horn or advocating a promotion for him. His defense is probably a little better than he’s showed and he probably can be a .750 OPS guy in the right situation. He can play in the show. I see plenty of bad baseball players that are already there. That’s all I’m saying and its not crazy.

for those wilkinsmaniacs wondering where he is
First baseman Andy Wilkins of the Dash, who is tied for second in the CL with 17 homers and fourth with 65 RBIs, missed his third straight game after injuring his knee in Thursday’s game against Kinston….
