Carson Fulmer and Tim Anderson headline a list of 20 White Sox spring training invitees, a group that includes nine minor-league free agents.
While this will be the first trip to big league camp for Fulmer, the eighth overall pick of the 2015 draft, it’s the second for Anderson, who starred at Double-A Birmingham last season. The team also announced Tuesday that five other players from Baseball America’s top-10 prospect list are among the invitees, including pitchers Tyler Danish and Jordan Guerrero and outfielders Adam Engel, Jacob May and Courtney Hawkins.
