Didn't he kind of awkwardly land in his foot making a play on Wednesday? More like #InjuryWatch rather than #HugWatch

sprained middle finger. back tonight or Sunday according to Renteria

Kershaw skipping AS Game because he's starting today....and he's also not starting next weekend. Next start will be at Guaranteed Rate Field.

I believe Tyler Saladino in on his way back to Chicago. Willy Garcia was sent down and he is playing in Charlotte but Saladino not listed

Happy 50th birthday to former Sox 3B, Robin Ventura. He was a good player.

Of the players on the roster four years and three days ago (7/11/13), the only player left on the roster is Nate Jones, and he's out for the year. Should be interesting to see who is on the roster at the 2021 all-star break.

Saladino and Gonzalez have been activated. Guess they don't care about an extra bullpen arm this weekend. Like it matters.

Think they have a normal 7 guys with one being a long-reliever. Although with this current rotation, they could probably use 2 long-relievers haha

 

 

Edit: we kinda do with Holmberg and Beck both being in the pen.

What was his response?

Also this team is going to be very very bad for the rest of this year and the next and probably most of 2019

He did, it was great. My buddy and I were so happy after

Once Clippard/Swarzak or any reliever gets traded, I think someone like Pelfrey should be moved to the bullpen (or, even traded) so that Lopez, and eventually Fulmer, can start here.

I don't mind that, but you also need people to eat innings, and a lot of these young guys will hit their inning limits come August.

 

I've thought about Pelfrey to the bullpen before though too. His effectiveness, if I recall, actually goes up the second time people see him, but he is absolutely destroyed the third time. As a reliever, he might not be a terrible pitcher.

When Gonzalez went into the 8th on Monday, it was the first time a White Sox starter had pitched 7 innings since Q on June 16th. The White Sox, who were 3rd in baseball each of the past 2 seasons in quality starts, are now 29th with only 31.

Plus, you can put him back in the rotation for a few starts down the line if need be.
