In all seriousness though, if Moncada has to miss some games due to his experience with COVID (possibly more than just speculation on our parts), who will play 3B? Leury or Mendick? Some combo? Cuthbert? Might as well let Yermin start there for the first 5-6 innings and then defensive sub rest of game.

July 9, 20205 yr https://www.si.com/mlb/whitesox/news/gio-gonzález-a-white-sox-cultural-retrospective This from a few days ago includes a 16 minute video interview with Gio Gonzalez and Sox media members Ballatini, Fegan , Duber Levine etc, GG talks about how his shoulder feels , how he might be used , the other starters ( remember he knew Giolito and Lopez with the Nats ) and wondering if he will ever throw a pitch as a White Sox, in jest of course.
July 9, 20205 yr 54 minutes ago, Harold's Leg Lift said: He has the feet of a ballerina. I can tell baseball is back because there's a new movement annoying me. During the first part of the offseason, it was all the people who wanted Adam Engel to platoon in RF because of a flukey sample against LHP. Now, it's the "play Mercedes at 3B, how bad can it be" camp. If it's true that Moncada has COVID and is asymptomatic, then chances are he's back within a week from now and (hopefully) Mercedes goes back to DH/C
July 9, 20205 yr Just now, Jose Abreu said: I can tell baseball is back because there's a new movement annoying me.

Now, it's the "play Mercedes at 3B, how bad can it be" camp. If it's true that Moncada has COVID and is asymptomatic, then chances are he's back within a week from now and (hopefully) Mercedes goes back to DH/C I don't think anyone is serious about playing Yermin at 3B.

July 10, 20205 yr Didn't see this anywhere from Sox on 35th which I think covers the Sox as well as any website. This is an interview with Danny Mendick and is on their Youtube page. Edited July 10, 20205 yr by CaliSoxFanViaSWside
July 10, 20205 yr By the way Sox on 35th was the only place I could find a complete as possible recap of the game based off of tweets. It has all the video highlights from those tweets. https://www.soxon35th.com/2020/07/09/results-from-thursdays-white-sox-intrasquad-scrimmage/
July 10, 20205 yr Good to see Basabe's name popping up a decent amount in summer camp, he's still an interesting player.

July 10, 20205 yr I just never thought TA would be the monster at the plate that he has become. Gotta love it. Even in summer camp.
