May 4, 20178 yr Chicago White Sox @whitesox now Prior to today’s game, the #WhiteSox placed RHP Nate Jones on the 10-day DL (retroactive to May 1) with right elbow neuritis.
May 4, 20178 yr Author Paul Sullivan @PWSullivan 34s Nate Jones to DL with elbow neuritis. David Holmberg up. Rodon to 60-day DL.
May 4, 20178 yr QUOTE (ChiSoxFanMike @ May 4, 2017 -> 10:03 AM) Dammit. I literally just acquired him in my league. Is he drop worthy? Is your league Holds+saves? If not I wouldn't even bother. Worst case scenario, stash him on your dl. Edited May 4, 20178 yr by soxfan2014
May 4, 20178 yr QUOTE (Sleepy Harold @ May 4, 2017 -> 10:05 AM) Paul Sullivan @PWSullivan 34s Nate Jones to DL with elbow neuritis. David Holmberg up. Rodon to 60-day DL. I suggested this could happen to make room for someone not on the 40-man. Didn't expect it this soon.
May 4, 20178 yr QUOTE (bmags @ May 4, 2017 -> 10:10 AM) I would not have guessed Holmberg up before Luebke. Didn't Luebke just return from the dl?

Yeah, this league awards 2.5 points per hold. I acquired him because he'll probably be the closer if Robertson is traded. I might just hold onto him and hope he's only on the shelf for a couple weeks.
May 4, 20178 yr QUOTE (bmags @ May 4, 2017 -> 10:10 AM) I would not have guessed Holmberg up before Luebke. Luebke isn't ready. He was in extended spring.

May 4, 20178 yr If nothing else, at least there's another lefty option so Jennings' arm won't fall off as quickly as I would've thought.
May 4, 20178 yr QUOTE (bmags @ May 4, 2017 -> 10:12 AM) I thought he'd been back for like 2 weeks but maybe that is too short. Stop rushing guys to the bigs, bmags. Jeez
May 4, 20178 yr QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ May 4, 2017 -> 04:02 PM) Apparently it isn't going to be our year for pitching. His slider has been off all year. Wonder if that was due to elbow issues? Either way, these injuries to the pitchers are getting out of control
May 4, 20178 yr QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ May 4, 2017 -> 10:25 AM) Stop rushing guys to the bigs, bmags. Jeez Listen, he isn't going to strengthen his arm pitching in the minors.
May 4, 20178 yr Will the last healthy White Sox player please turn off the clubhouse lights before leaving to go on the DL? 7th Sox player (6th pitcher) currently on the DL. It's 2000-2001 all over again. So much for these guys staying healthy so they can be traded for something. Hahn today said it's "minor" and he should be pitching again "in a few weeks." Where have we heard THAT before this year? LOL. Rodon was moved to the 60 day DL because the report said the Sox feel it'll be at least June 1 before he can do a rehab assignment.

Mark You sure you cannot rehab while on the DL? I think that just means he can't come back to the ML before June 1, but pretty sure he can pitch in AAA. Also...you'll notice DL stints are way up across the league. The 10 day DL allows teams much more flexibility. Obviously the bullpen has taken a bit of a hit so far this year, but its not like this is some crazy phenomenon only occurring on the SOx. Edited May 4, 20178 yr by ChiSox59

Mark This isn't true. Hahn said he wouldn't be finished with rehab assignment by then. He's throwing off a mound. I think it's likely he goes on one in the next 10 days. He's eligible to return to Sox on 5/29.
May 4, 20178 yr Apparently this injury doesn't seem to be overly serious and they hope he's back within 2 weeks or so. Perhaps it was more cautionary than anything else.
May 4, 20178 yr QUOTE (ChiSoxFanMike @ May 4, 2017 -> 10:03 AM) Dammit. I literally just acquired him in my league. Is he drop worthy? Yes. The neuritis can only be coming from stress at the elbow. Not a good sign from a previous TJ.
