GLENDALE, Ariz. -- The White Sox made their first roster cuts of spring training, reassigning 2016 first round pick Zack Collins and four other players to minor league camp on Friday. 

Right-hander Spencer Adams, left-handers Brian Clark and David Holmberg and outfielder Courtney Hawkins will join Collins on the minor league side of things at Camelback Ranch. 

Collins, the 10th overall pick in the 2016 draft had three hits, drew two walks and stole two bases in 10 plate appearances as a non-roster invitee. He spent his time in White Sox camp working on his catching skills in an effort to begin to establish himself as the White Sox catcher of the future

Hawkins, the White Sox first round pick in 2013, singled three times in 13 Cactus League at-bats with one strikeout. Clark turned in 3 2/3 scoreless innings, while Holmberg allowed two runs in 3 1/3 innings and Adams allowed four runs in 2 2/3 innings. 

The White Sox now have 54 players in major league camp. Manager Rick Renteria said Thursday he's targeting March 15 to begin to focus on the players who could be a part of the White Sox opening day roster.
