Colson Montgomery – MLB Pipeline White Sox #3
Colson Montgomery’s time in the Arizona Fall League has come to an end, but the 22-year-old smashed two home runs on his way out. Montgomery finishes his second stint in the AFL with a .313/.511/.656 slash line, 1.167 OPS, three home runs, 11 RBI, more walks (10) than strikeouts (six), and went 4-for-4 on stolen bases in 11 games.
Michael Turner
26-year-old Michael Turner saw action in two contests again, notching two hits while also reaching base via a walk.
Tim Elko
Tim Elko appeared in four games last week for the Desert Dogs, reaching base five times (single, double, three walks) in 14 at-bats. Elko was also named to the Premier12 USA roster, along with fellow White Sox farmhand and AFL teammate Eric Adler.
DJ Gladney
23-year-old DJ Gladney absolutely nuked his first AFL home run last week, pairing that with a fantastic quote during a post game interview as well.
Grant Taylor – MLB Pipeline White Sox #6
Grant Taylor made his weekly start that yielded tough results to start before settling in and logging some much needed innings.
Peyton Pallette – MLB Pipeline White Sox #27
It was an outing to forget for righty Peyton Pallette, as his lone appearance of the week did not go particularly well for the 23-year-old.
Eric Adler
Eric Adler had a rough final outing for the Desert Dogs, but is set to continue pitching this fall with the USA Premier12 club.
Andrew Dalquist
Andrew Dalquist had two appearances last week for Glendale, the latter of which was a scoreless frame with one walk allowed but three strikeouts.
Anthony Hoopii-Tuionetoa
24-year-old Anthony Hoopii-Tuionetoa made two scoreless appearances last week for Glendale, and has put together three scoreless appearances over the last two weeks of AFL action.
