| Post subject: | 40-Man Roster |
Tomorrow is the deadline for teams to add players to the 40 man roster and protect them from the Rule 5 draft whch is on Dec 12. The Sox 40-Man currently sits at 36 players. The Sox have 4 players who are likely to be added to the 40-Man roster tomorrow: Carlos Sanchez 2B Trayce Thompson OF Brandon Jacobs OF Michael Blanke C There are a couple other players who could be added: Miguel Gonzalez C Tyler Saladino SS If the Sox were to add one or both of these players INF Mike McDade and RHP Duente Heath could easily be removed from the 40-man and possibly OF Blake Tekotte and RHP Dylan Axelrod. I think the Sox will add the four players listed above to the 40-man and C Miguel Gonzalez. They will remove either McDade or Heath or possibly both to keep a spot open in case they want to select a player in the rule 5 draft or to sign a free agent. |

well, Soxs should have a high pick in the Rule 5 draft. Maybe they take somebody for a change. Course they never amount to anything which implies everyone knows who can and can't play. |

They took a guy last year. Angel Sanchez? He was a utility infielder who didn't work out because he was old and bad. I doubt they pick anyone this year unless they find a left handed pitcher they think they can turn into a loogy. |

Blake Tekotte should not be taking up a spot. He's bad. |

The problem with taking Rule 5 guys is that they have to be on the MLB roster for the entire season or else be sent back to the original team. That means you are wasting a spot on your 25 man for a guy who has no business to otherwise be there in the hopes he can develop at the MLB level. Pure flyer stuff. |

Bobby Bonilla was another that the idiot Hawk Harrelson picked as well. Yes. I know there have been a handful of success stories. |

The White Sox have added IF Carlos Sanchez and OF Trayce Thompson to 40-man roster. Hmmm. They are leaving OF Brandon Jacobs and C Michael Blanke exposed to the rule 5 draft? I guess I can see Blanke as there are plenty of good defensive catchers who can't hit but Jacobs has some intriguing tools and he's only 23 years old. A team can easily stash him on a major league roster for a year hoping he can eventually tap into his massive raw power. |

The White Sox have outrighted outfielder Blake Tekotte and infielder Mike McDade, reducing their 40-man roster to 38. Creating some roster space to add a couple players during the Winter Meetings. |

Creating some roster space to add a couple players during the Winter Meetings. But Tekotte was a "very viable option" per THE RANGER and where is the Addison Reed news? The guy who I was told was a top closer was just traded for THE Matt Davidson. The D Backs version of Josh Vitters |
