April 6, 2025Apr 6 DFAd by the White Sox is baseball slang for its time to find another line of work.

April 6, 2025Apr 6 The weird part is that Slater has neutral, or even reverse platoon splits over the last year. Maybe Venable just wanted to give Jankowski a full run. It's not quite like Roman Anthony was sitting so Jankowski could play.

It's not quite like Roman Anthony was sitting so Jankowski could play. Jankowski has received full runs elsewhere. He’s 33 years old. The back of his baseball card wasn’t suddenly going to change… .235 / .319 / .304 / .623

April 9, 2025Apr 9 And unsurprisingly, not one other team wanted him. Good enough to start for the White Sox one week, without a job the very next week. “White Sox sent OF Travis Jankowski outright to Triple-A Charlotte. Jankowski has elected free agency to search for a new opportunity after passing through waivers unclaimed. The 33-year-old outfielder was jettisoned from Chicago’s 40-man roster last weekend when Mike Tauchman returned from the injured list.” Edited April 9, 2025Apr 9 by WhiteSox2023

Or he’s on his way back with 10D hitting IL. Edited April 9, 2025Apr 9 by Bob Sacamano

April 25, 2025Apr 25 Jankowski traded to the Rays? ROSTER MOVE: Prior to the start of tonight's game at Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, the Charlotte Knights have made the following roster moves: - P Eric Adler reinstated from the IL, added to Charlotte’s active roster - OF Travis Jankowski traded to the TB Rays 📰:… — Charlotte Knights (@KnightsBaseball) April 25, 2025
April 25, 2025Apr 25 Quote ”Rays acquired OF Travis Jankowski from the White Sox for cash considerations.” LOL, Jerry is pleased — more cash considerations!!! Getz will get a lifetime extension at this rate. This should be a meme at this point. EDIT: Looks like Jay Cuda beat me to it by a year… Edited April 25, 2025Apr 25 by WhiteSox2023
April 26, 2025Apr 26 Circa 2045 - "Grandpa, would you talk to my class about being a baseball player on career day?" "I'd love to. I have a lot of stories about the 2025 White Sox!" /Looks up 2025 White Sox "Could you tell them you were a piano player in a whore house?"
April 28, 2025Apr 28 Sox trade Jank to the Rays and he goes 2/4 with a double in his Rays debut. Rays seem like the perfect team for him; surprised he hasn't played there before.
