From The Trentonian?s Josh Norris, maybe the best minor league best writer around, comes word that the White Sox have scouted Dellin Betances? ?last three starts and are attempting to trade for the Yankees prospect.
Betances? stock has tumbled this year, with the 6-foot-8 right-hander getting demoted to Double-A Trenton after going 3-5 with a 6.39 ERA and a 71/69 K/BB ratio in 74 2/3 innings for Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. He has been quite a bit better since the move, going 1-1 with a 2.41 ERA and a 20/7 K/BB ratio in 18 2/3 innings (though with five unearned runs).
Still, even with Betances? stock down, it?s hard to see how a deal would work here. The White Sox certainly aren?t looking to sell veterans, and while they?ve steadily produced major leaguers these last few years, their minor league system isn?t very well regarded. Plus, the simple fact that the White Sox are high on him should give the Yankees pause about dealing him. They?re the same team that took the lightly regarded Jose Quintana from them over the winter and quickly turned him into a major league starter.
