will be called up for Friday, the day in which two games will be played, but not immediately following one another.

Its not really dumb....if that part can be used next year....

As an organization should they rebuild....of course they should.....but once again, who is the owner? he isnt going to rebuild now and I dont blame him. He need to go for it while Sale's arm is attached.

Teams are allowed to expand their rosters for a day on days of doubleheaders. That is all. The bullpen is rolling right now anyway

If he throws the hell out of it it's going to be real tough to send him back down.

Biggest fastball we will have seen in a long time. He regularly hits 100 and gets up to 102.

HAsnt he been starting in the minors?

I remember seeing him in the AFL ..... guy can bring it.

This is from Bleacher Report

During the 9th inning of the All-Star game last night, the baseball world was able to witness one of the most exciting pitchers that it has in its arsenal; Aroldis Chapman. Fans, players, and coaches alike were in awe of his ability to consistently throw over 100 mph, as he averaged 101.14 MPH on 14 pitches.

Now it appears as if someone with a similarly electric arm is going to join the ranks of major league pitchers.

Frankie Montas doesn't boast the high strikeout totals that Chapman has, but his fastball can only be described as overpowering. He was selected to help represent the White Sox in the 2015 Future's game, and wowed everyone on the field with triple digit fastballs.

"the White Sox Double-A pitcher created quite a stir among his teammates in the sixth inning when he threw consecutive 101-mph fastballs. As if that weren't enough, Montas backed up those efforts with a 99-mph heater."

While the blazing fastballs draw comparisons to Chapman, perhaps Yordano Ventura is better, as Montas is a starter rather than a shutdown reliever. In 2014, and thus far in 2015, Montas has produced ERA's of 1.60, and 2.47, respectively, and will vault AAA entirely (at least for now).

He's their number two overall prospect, and while this is undoubtedly just a spot start because of the doubleheader, it will be must watch TV for any baseball fan, and certainly any White Sox fan. There's also a chance that Montas could be back with the club later this season depending on the fate of Jeff Samardzija.

Yes, I am well aware of the rule of bringing up a player....ughh..

if you notice GD was stating the Bullpen is fine right now...thus, is he going into the BP as a starter from the minors? Seems really foolish to bring up such a player , who starts, place him in the pen? Unless you want to showcase him for a trade?

This isn't the California Penal League, Vaughn. We wear sleeves and caps at this level.

Proabaly need to replace Sale on Friday as I heard he goes Sunday now. Montas news say he has only been getting a few innings here and there between all star and futures stuff so who knows?
