Some of the top prospects, like Yoan Moncada and Lucas Giolito, moved up to the big leagues and graduated off of prospect lists. The group the White Sox sent to the Arizona Fall League this year does not include any of their upper-echelon prospects, but those who are here are trying to elbow their way onto the now-crowded radar in the organization. A pair of those Minor Leaguers, catcher Seby Zavala and outfielder Tito Polo, certainly opened some eyes with their performances on Friday in Glendale's 7-6 win in Surprise. Zavala went 2-for-4 with a pair of doubles and two RBIs while Polo did his job as the Desert Dogs' leadoff man with two hits, two stolen bases, two runs scored and an RBI of his own to help Glendale improve to 3-1 on the season. The way the game started, it looked like it was going to be a rout, with the Desert Dogs putting up four runs in the top of the first inning against Surprise starter Burch Smith of the Rays. Polo served as the catalyst with an infield single and eventually stole second and third. He scored on Indians No. 3 prospect Bobby Bradley's RBI single. After a walk to Phillies No. 12 prospect Cornelius Randolph, Zavala's first double, a line drive to left, scored both Bradley and Randolph. Zavala scored on a single by the Phillies' Edgar Cabral to finish off the opening frame scoring. "I swung at two curveballs early in the count," Zavala said. "He was kind of wild with his other pitches, his fastball and his changeup. "3-2, I was sitting offspeed. He threw me a curveball, I was able to get it down the line and keep it fair." Zavala faced Twins No. 8 prospect Tyler Jay to lead off the fourth after the Saguaros had gotten on the board with Royals outfielder Eliezer Hernandez's solo home run on the bottom of the second. This time, the catcher didn't waste any time, taking the Twins' former first-rounder's first pitch and doubling down the right-field line. He went to third when Hernandez had trouble fielding the extra-base hit in right field, though he was cut off at the plate when the Phillies' Edgar Cabral hit a ground ball to third baseman Edmundo Sosa (Cardinals' No. 12), who came home with the throw. "He threw me a two-seamer and kind of got it in on my hands, but I was able to let get deep enough so I was able to push it down the line," Zavala said. "I definitely want to work line-to-line. If they throw me on the corners, I want to be able to spread the ball. If they throw it over the middle, I want to work the middle of the field." The Desert Dogs added a pair of runs in the top of the fifth off of Cardinals No. 14 prospect Jordan Hicks. Again, it was Polo who got things going with a leadoff single, moving to third on Pirates infielder Mitchell Tolman's double and scoring on fellow Pirate Logan Hill's sacrifice fly. Bradley's single plated Tolman to give Glendale a 6-2 lead. That extra run off of Bradley's bat came in handy as the Saguaros rallied late. Rangers No. 15 prospect Josh Morgan and Sosa singled in runs in the sixth, while Twins first baseman Chris Paul doubled in a run in the seventh and scored on an error to bring Surprise within a run, 6-5. Polo's sacrifice fly in the top of the ninth made it 7-5, a crucial run because Rangers outfielder Michael O'Neill hit a solo shot in the bottom of the frame to make it a one-run game again. The Saguaros loaded the bases with two outs, but Phillies No. 30 prospect J.D. Hammer came in to get Morgan to ground out to short for his first AFL save. Polo is now 4-for-12 with three runs scored and three steals in three games. Zavala has played in two of Glendale's four contests and has come out swinging a hot stick, going 4-for-7 in the process. In many ways, he is just picking up where he left off from a breakout season that saw him hit .282/.353/.499 with 21 home runs across two levels of A ball. "I was working on some stuff early on, in Spring Training and early on in the season and it finally clicked for me," said Zavala, a San Diego State product who was part of Tony Gwynn's final Draft class at the school in 2015. "I was able to play consistently with my power and my average. I had a couple of weeks off and I've been lucky enough to see the ball real well right now. Hopefully I can continue that." Former White Sox reliever Webb dies By Scott Merkin / MLB.com | Oct. 15, 2017 CHICAGO -- Former White Sox reliever Daniel Webb was killed Saturday night in an ATV crash in Northwest Tennessee. Webb, 28, missed the entire 2017 season after undergoing Tommy John surgery on June 10, 2016. He made 94 appearances for the White Sox between 2013-16 and had a 3.99 ERA and 58 strikeouts over 67 2/3 innings in '14. He was released by the White Sox last November. The White Sox issued the following statement concerning Webb's passing on Sunday afternoon. "Daniel left many friends within the Chicago White Sox organization, and we are all shocked and stunned by the news of last night's terrible accident. He was a terrific young man with a full life ahead of him. All thoughts and prayers go to his family and friends as they deal with today's tragic news." According to a report from WKRN.com, Webb was killed when the ATV hit an object in the woods, rolling over and caused him to break his neck. He had just gotten married a few weeks earlier and his wife was one of the three other people injured in the incident according to the report. It was Feb. 27, 2014 when Webb's mother, Sandra, passed away suddenly at the age of 54. Webb was notified in Glendale as he was competing for a spot on the White Sox roster during Spring Training. "I thought about her every day. Some days were worse than others," Webb said one year after his mom's passing. "Some days it hit me and … it took a while for it to set in, really." One of Webb's custom gloves from Rawlings featured her name. He was a free agent after the release by the White Sox, who acquired him in a trade with the Blue Jays on Jan. 1, 2012, that sent Jason Frasor to Toronto. Inbox: How do White Sox prepare for Draft? Director of amateur scouting Nick Hostetler answers questions from fans By Scott Merkin / MLB.com | Oct. 13, 2017 CHICAGO -- Nick Hostetler, the White Sox director of amateur scouting, took time from his busy 2018 MLB Draft preparation to serve as the White Sox Inbox guest for this week. Here's Part 1 of Hostetler's answers. We have a tough time drafting hitters. How can you judge a young hitter and translate his ability to the Majors? -- Cory, Glen Ellyn, Ill., @WitchBorn Obviously that has changed here in the past few years, and I think it starts with Tim Anderson. One of the reasons why it might look like we had a tough time drafting hitters is because we used to take a lot of pitching. But the one thing you do is you try to limit the swing-and-miss picks and try to take guys who have a good eye and understand the strike zone and have the ability to get on base. What are your thoughts on drafting the 2018 first-round pick from high school vs. college? -- Cary, Buffalo, Grove, Ill., @GoHawksAndSox Doesn't matter. It's really irrelevant whether they are a high school player or college player, pitcher whatever it may be. You never want to limit your pool when you are picking at any point in the Draft, let alone No. 4.

Sure, the kids in the room above you may be jumping up and down in vacation-induced joy all night, but, thanks to that "Do Not Disturb" sign hanging on the door, at least no one is going to barge in. On Tuesday night, White Sox right fielder Avisail Garcia visited the Blue Jays and nearly shattered that assumption of privacy when he sent a 481-foot home run that came just inches away from potentially disturbing some guests at the Rogers Centre hotel: Clearly, that dinger went a long way.

Sunday, he closed out the World Series for the Red Sox, winning his first championship. The Red Sox called on Sale to pitch the 9th inning of Game 5 of the Fall Classic on Sunday, and the lean left-hander did not disappoint. Sale struck out Justin Turner, Kike Hernández and Manny Machado in-order, clinching the Red Sox fourth championship in 15 seasons. While White Sox fans surely wish Sale helped bring another championship to the South Side, congratulations are in order for the former White Sox ace. And, who knows? A few years down the line, maybe Michael Kopech, who the White Sox acquired from Boston in the Sale trade, will be on the mound in a World Series' clincher for the White Sox.

  • Weekly Notes 072817
    MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL WEEKLY NOTES FRIDAY, JULY 28, 2017 BLACKMON WORKING TOWARD HISTORIC SEASON On Sunday afternoon against the Pittsburgh Pirates at Coors Field, Colorado Rockies All-Star outfi elder Charlie Blackmon went 3-for-5 with a pair of runs scored and his 24th home run of the season. With the round-tripper, Blackmon recorded his 57th extra-base hit on the season, which include 20 doubles, 13 triples and his aforementioned 24 home runs. Pacing the Majors in triples, Blackmon trails only his teammate, All-Star Nolan Arenado for the most extra-base hits (60) in the Majors. Blackmon is looking to become the fi rst Major League player to log at least 20 doubles, 20 triples and 20 home runs in a single season since Curtis Granderson (38-23-23) and Jimmy Rollins (38-20-30) both accomplished the feat during the 2007 season. Since 1901, there have only been seven 20-20-20 players, including Granderson, Rollins, Hall of Famers George Brett (1979) and Willie Mays (1957), Jeff Heath (1941), Hall of Famer Jim Bottomley (1928) and Frank Schulte, who did so during his MVP-winning 1911 season. Charlie would become the fi rst Rockies player in franchise history to post such a season. If the season were to end today, Blackmon’s extra-base hit line (20-13-24) has only been replicated by 34 diff erent players in MLB history with Rollins’ 2007 season being the most recent. It is the fi rst stat line of its kind in Rockies franchise history. Hall of Famer Lou Gehrig is the only player in history to post such a line in four seasons (1927-28, 30-31).
