Per Sox twitter. no other info given.

That's too bad because he actually was starting to hit. It obviously wouldn't last, but usually he's good for a week or two of a hot spurt every now and then.

Come on down.........................Adam Engel

Jason Coats up.

Can't catch a break. He's the type of guy we should be playing every day for the rest of the year looking at how we're doing right now.

This year has been brutal. I hope Coats sees some regular ABs.

If Engel were to debut this year, he should play in bubble wrap.

Until he hurts himself again...

All you can do is laugh. Injuries never ending... not that it really matters at this point.

 

The Chicago White Sox the team the baseball gods laugh at.

Well it provides plenty of excuses for the front office come the offseason.

I'd sure like to see the club actually give Coats a real look this time. Had just 29 plate appearances in over 40 roster days last time. Can't really expect a rookie to succeed like that. He should get some time vs LHP at DH, and some corner OF time when days open up. Can also be a D replacement late in games, PR and PH. Just to know if there's anything there. He doesn't have anything left to prove in AAA.

With everyone they are missing, they don't really have a choice right now.

Still might go with Shuck in center lol

Ugh, he's strictly an emergency backup there, or should be.

 

Eaton can play CF. Shuck and Coats can platoon in RF, Coats also in at DH here and there. Even give Melky an occasional day off in LF.

 

Oh dang Jason Coats is gonna get that MLB pension isn't he

I am sure Shuck will play most of all, but seeing as they tried to get rid of Shuck at least twice already this year, I can't see them not playing Coats at least a fair amount.

Well he already gets health care for life. Not sure at what point he earns a pension.

Yep. 34k per year after 43 days of service.

I was thinking Shuck might be the worst position player in the majors, but I think that award goes to Mike Aviles.

Very good point and something that I'm concerned they are going to do. Injuries made their impact this year to be sure but realistically the team was headed into the toilet before they became an epidemic in my opinion.

lol, that means he was 1 day short when they sent him down. He'll get it now.
