May 27, 20178 yr Chicago White Sox @whitesox Prior to today’s doubleheader, the #WhiteSox placed Tyler Saladino on the 10-day DL with back spasms and recalled outfielder Adam Engel.
May 27, 20178 yr I'm excited about him, but remain skeptical. Hitting only .221, but am OPS of 775. 8 homeruns. Has been unlucky with a babip in the .260s.
May 27, 20178 yr at every stop he has struggled initially before adjusting. hopefully he can keep his hot bat going...
May 27, 20178 yr Saladino remember had disc issues in his lower back at the end of last season and through this off season. Those really never go away even with surgery (and I don't know if he had surgery or not). That's a bad situation to have for a professional athlete.

His salad days are over as a big leaguer. No longer a prospect after this season's flop at the plate.

May 27, 20178 yr Crede, Hermanson and Jenks say hello...Jim Thome as well, on the back issues. Started to bother Konerko late in his career, too. Edited May 27, 20178 yr by caulfield12

Ron Hansen (60s), Bill Melton, Bart Johnson and Eric Soderholm were some folks from a bit longer ago who also had careers basically end due to bad backs.
