Per multiple sources. Has some MLB experience. Likely will signal the end of the Severino or Mercedes era on the 40 man when Lance returns next week. 31 years old, so Sox must really like the arm. White Sox Claim Parker Markel From A’s - MLB Trade Rumors

This. Lance last pitched Friday and is pitching again tonight. That would put him on schedule to pitch in the Detroit series next week. I would imagine they wouldn't get too cute with TA in AAA, so I imagine he'd only get a couple games of rehab, probably be available for the series in Houston, or at the very least, the beginning of the next homestand. Eloy a bit more of wildcard IMO. He's still not playing full games in AAA, but I doubt he'd be much behind TA, if at all. Like you said, I would guess all will be back in under 2 weeks, barring set backs.

Yeah. The way the Sox have handled Kopech is literally awful, starting with the unnecessary call up in 2018 that lead to disaster. But we are where we are and he's really fucking good. That said, he's going to need some rest at some point this summer. I don't see him going much beyond 120 IP in the regular season, and he's on pace for more like 150 IP, so something is going to have to give at some point.

Kopech is going to be one of the best pitchers in the game for a while. Been saying that for some time.

Segura is hurt and out for months. Brandon Drury makes some sense tho.

There isn’t a single chance in hell the Sox trade Tim Anderson.

Don’t believe Grandal has caught Kopech this season. Probably won’t tonight either.

Good for the knights. Their pitching is dreadful.

Sox did more than fine on the Sale trade.

A lineup that makes sense is refreshing!

I would have kept Crick over Sousa and/or Banks.

TBF, that scenario sounds hell of a lot better than not watching any interesting baseball all season. I have the sickness - I won’t be able to look away even though I know I should. So I’d much rather see that play out than more of what we’ve seen.

Probably just bringing up Martin to piggyback VV or visaversa.

Welp, McGuire probably just earned another DH start this road trip.

A staff shakeup after this disaster series would be nice.

Lol you think he really needs to be told that? These guys are not idiots.

I didn’t take that as “ripping” on the fans. Everyone wants results right now.

That's fair, but its the situation we find ourselves in.

Twins continue to suck, so we got that going for us. Find a way to win this game, and somehow, we gained ground this week.

Yeah, its insane if that is actually what is stopping them from making a change. But sadly, it probably is.

Jinx.

I mean even Jerry had to be looking at this 21-25 window as huge opportunity to make $ and increase the value of the franchise before he passes away. The payroll is the highest its ever been in team history; he didn't do that to sport a .500 club. He also didn't get to where he is in life being a fucking idiot. I just cannot for the life of me fathom that the folks in charge of this operation are OK with what is going on. How in the flying fuck do you allow this to continue to happen? Its all so mind boggling.

Even Rees had to be like WTF? I am DHing?

I mean, Rick and Kenny can't possibly be in support of this clown show. McGuire at DH!?!?!?!?! Pollock has his best game in weeks and he is on the bench! Mendick is on a roll; benched. Leury hitting .180 at lead off!?! Its just inexcusable as we sit at 23-25.

Since you watch the Padres, how bad did he look defensively at 2B?
