The White Sox’s run of eight wins in the last 12 games has not only built confidence, it has created competition.
“When you have depth in the organization and there's competition for roles in your position, you don't have time to let down,” manager Rick Renteria said. “There's an edge that you have to develop in order to be able to compete.”
Adam Engel’s defense has been stellar, but this week the Sox called up fellow centerfielder Ryan Cordell to give him a look.
The Sox have also thrown call-ups Ryan Burr and Jose Ruiz into mix of other young relievers such as Aaron Bummer, Thyago Vieira and Jace Fry.
