From Sickels’ latest Q&A thread:
Q: John, do you think Tyler Flowers will have any significant transition problems as the White Sox catcher next year, or is he good to go? Would he be a productive major-leaguer already if not for the succession plan the club seems to have him on?
A: He could use more Triple-A time to finish the defensive polish and just see more breaking balls as a hitter, so I don’t mind him being back in the minors. I don’t think it will hurt him.
