The White Sox are calling up third baseman Bryan Ramos from Double-A Birmingham, in keeping with James Fox of the FutureSox web site (X hyperlink). The corresponding 26-man roster transfer isn’t but recognized, however Ramos has been on Chicago’s 40-man roster since November 2022.
Ramos might be bypassing the Triple-A stage completely so as to make his Main League debut each time he makes his first look on the sector. It’s a fairly aggressive promotion for the White Sox to make with the 22-year-old, particularly since Ramos wasn’t precisely forcing the problem with a gradual begin in opposition to Double-A pitching — an .182/.265/.307 slash line over 98 plate appearances with Birmingham this season. Ramos a minimum of had higher numbers in an extended pattern dimension at Double-A in 2023, hitting .272/.369/.457 with 14 homers over 339 PA.
Accidents could possibly be forcing Chicago’s hand, as Danny Mendick was scratched from yesterday’s lineup attributable to tightness in his decrease again. Whereas supervisor Pedro Grifol advised MLB.com and different media that he didn’t suppose Mendick’s damage was too severe, that stance might need modified after some additional testing, plus the White Sox are already short-handed at third base as it’s. With Yoan Moncada out till late July attributable to an adductor pressure, the recent nook has been a revolving door for the Sox, with Mendick, Braden Shewmake, and Lenyn Sosa all getting begins in Moncada’s absence. Sosa is at Triple-A and infielder Zach Remillard continues to be within the group after lately being outrighted off the 40-man roster, nevertheless it seems as if the White Sox will as an alternative check out an up-and-coming prospect.
