1) Benintendi - he's raking now. 2) Acuña - backs up IF and OF, pinch-runner 3) Perez - best defensive OF on bench 4) Grichuk - mashes lefties Even though I feel steam come out my ears every time somebody wants Benintendi DFAed or traded, he's the purest overlap with Mune. Gonzo can DH, and spell every infield position once every week, or so. However, I think I'd vote for putting Gonzo back in AAA for now. There will always be other injuries.

Oh, and then there's this:

There was a Cleveland sports talk station on AM that I could get in the evening on the road. Their guy was once complaining that every member of that 90's team, Belle, Ramirez, Lofton, Vizquel, Alomar, Thome - were all going to wind up on the White Sox in free agency. Lo and behold...

While we all would love to see Reid Detmers pitching for the White Sox TODAY, I seriously doubt any team is ready to cut bait at least until the week of July 20th. Even then, there's a good half a dozen teams who will wait until the final weekend before deciding whether they buy or sell.

Take one. Come home.

Okay, call him up.

So many tears, they have to pull out the tarp.

Connor's brother?

And the last time the Sox had a streak that long in Cleveland, you know who the pitcher was who bookended the streak? Williams' father.

Drivin' around the bases, maybe.

I doubt that. He just changed levels. Unless he lost 7 mph, he's the same pitcher.

Then there's the draft. If they get a CF they really wanted, Fauske becomes available. Get a couple solid college pitching prospects, Gabe Davis could be had.

He's elite. Did you hear that he's elite?!? He's elite, I tell ya!!

Wine O'Clock.

BS overturn. He was off the bag.

Hoskins bawled out Arias last week for that same s%*#.

Droth's going to end up around 3 WAR on the season. That's above average.

Kwan will retire, the game clearly having passed him by. Taking extra long to process his paperwork, the Guards will write him into the lineup against the Sox one last time, and he'll clock in with a 3-4 and 2 doubles.

He threw an inning against the Royals on Sunday.

I can't wait til they DFA him because I hate 2-run HRs!!

Chris Getz likes Ben Hartl because he gets on base.
