White Sox Ready to Commence Anderson Era

The Tim Anderson Era is ready to commence. The White Sox 2013 First Round pick (17th overall) from East Central Community College in Mississippi is being called up from Charlotte. Their corresponding roster move was to designate Shortstop Jimmy Rollins for assignment.

Anderson play forced the White Sox to make the move. General Manager Rick Hahn was quoted on CSN Chicago as saying ““So far (Anderson) has done his part to force up that time frame” He hit .304 with four homeruns, 20 RBI’s and 11 stolen bases for the AAA Charlotte Knights this season.

The White Sox prospect blog, Future Sox, says Anderson has exceptional athleticism and speed, a strong arm and quick hands at the plate.
