Engel wins center field job for Sox

Six months of rosterbation is finally coming to a close.

Before tonight’s game at Salt River Fields at Talking Stick, the Chicago White Sox took the stick to four players in major-league camp.

Center field candidate Ryan Cordell, who made an impressive showing this spring, was shipped to Class AAA Charlotte. Outfielder Luis Robert, and righthanders Rob Scahill and Chris Volstad were reassigned to minor-league camp.

Only Robert, expected out until late May with a thumb sprain, comes as no surprise.

Cordell (along with Engel) was among the White Sox’s offensive leaders in Cactus League play across all categories, and was cited as a “major leaguer” by manager Rick Renteria today.
