White Sox Minor League Update: July 31, 2022
Jared Kelley continues to dominate at Low-A, looking like the first-round talent he was drafted as in 2020. The Sox 2022 draft class, basically, adds up to 30 when you count undrafted free agents, so it’s pretty close to the number of signings the old 40 round drafts were. So far, two guys have appeared in games, 20th round draft pick Ethan Hammerberg and UDFA Ben Beutel, both in the ACL on July 30. Odds are, every one of the 2022 draftees will all start out in the ACL and move up from there, with older players possibly reaching Winston-Salem. On the bad side, some players currently in the organization could be on the outs in the weeks to come.
