Eloy Jimenez didn’t get his chance to show he was ready for the major leagues this past September after an impressive season in the minors. The 22-year-old slugging outfielder will have to wait until next year.
Jimenez, however, will see some playing time over the Winter as the Gigantes del Cibao of the Dominican Winter League added him to their roster for the upcoming season. There were some Sox fans who weren’t thrilled that Jimenez wasn’t called up in September as he showed he didn’t have much to learn by continuing to play in the minors.
