Player Notes
September 1, 2007
Ryan Sweeney probably won't join the White Sox when rosters expand on Saturday. "I don't think he's coming up because I have a lot of outfielders and that's going to make it tough for me to play this kid and play the rest of the guys," manager Ozzie Guillen said, according to the Chicago Tribune. Sweeney hit .200 in 45 at-bats with the club earlier this season.

Ryan Sweeney has earned the right to start in left field for the White Sox, despite hitting just .231 in 12 games this year. “That kids’ not going anywhere,” manager Ken Williams told the Chicago Sun-Times. “He not only has shown that he can hit at this level but has come up with the big hit. We’ll let it ride with him, see where it takes us.” Sweeney was originally expected to be the odd man out when Jim Thome returns from the disabled list next week, but he's now expected to stay in left field at least until Scott Podsednik is ready to come off the disabled list.

Ryan Sweeney is expected to be the odd man out when Jim Thome returns from the disabled list, but he’s impressed manager Ozzie Guillen with his recent play. “The decision will be made [on] how many days he’s going to play and how many at-bats he’s going to get,” Guillen told the Chicago Sun-Times. “Is he ready to play? He’s behind. He’s a baby… But he gives me big hits, and he’s playing outstanding outfield. He has a lot of pluses. Is he ready yet? No, not really. Maybe later on the year he is.” After delivering a key two-run hit on Wednesday, Sweeney is riding a five-game hitting streak.

The White Sox plan to recall Ryan Sweeney from Triple-A Charlotte today, according to the Daily Southtown. He'll replace the injury Jim Thome on their roster. Sweeney posted a .256 batting average with two homers and six RBI in 21 Triple-A games this season.
