Is there a reason the Sox continually do this and play games with one less man?  So they save money by not making the transaction and playing down a man?

No it's Jerry being cheap and not wanting to pay an extra MLB salary. The epitome of penny pinching.

I seriously doubt Jerry Reinsdorf is providing any input on this

“The White Sox playing shorthanded started in 2007 when Jermaine Dye got hurt and Kenny Williams refused to call up Brian Anderson or Ryan Sweeney. Maybe they were cheap, maybe they wanted to protect Herm’s record of keeping guys off the DL.” (Author’s Note: Herm Schneider was the Sox longtime head trainer and for years the Sox were among the league leaders in keeping players healthy.) 

“Jake Peavy made the comment one time, ‘They have no reservations about playing shorthanded.”

Ok, maybe I overstepped my bounds then.

April 2: OF/DH Eloy Jiménez hoping to avoid IL
The White Sox designated hitter sustained a left adductor injury during a groundout in the sixth inning on Sunday, grimacing as he moved two or three steps out of the batter's box. The team called Jiménez's injury soreness during the game, but manager Pedro Grifol referred to it as a strain postgame.

Jiménez was swinging the bat and going through drills Tuesday, hoping to avoid the IL.

"We feel like there’s a really good chance that happens. That’s why we haven’t put him on there yet," Grifol said. "But again, he has to continue to make improvements like he did from yesterday to today.”

On the latest podcast that I watched tonight Garfien said that after Iloy got hurt he asked his producer if it would be possible to find and count the number of times he hurt himself just running to first base.

It turns out just in the last few years they found five instances where the guy hurt himself just running to first base. 

That's...amazing.

He actually does something 4 or 5 times a game and even then he can't even keep himself in good enough shape to run to first without getting hurt...

We'll decide to IL Iloy on Saturday after playing down a roster spot for 5 days.

 

Book it.

I was only off by a day.
