Elko having some trouble. Hope he figures it out.

hoping it's just nerves and not poor pitch recognition, because he was swinging at some awful pitches

Hey maybe Vaughn actually had to see that they will replace him and it's not gonna be a problem.  Any how, good on him for showing signs of life in the box

Hey, if it lights a fire under him and he’s good enough to be traded for something, I’m fine with that.

Should be 3-4 to 0.

Just can't let a pitcher like Lodolo off two innings in a row and get away with it...eventually he'll find his rhythm.

 

If Baldwin's going to be more confident in his bunting...just go down and play everyday in CHLT.

And at least we're going to know one way or the other about Elko, even though it's an 85-90% likelihood he's more a AAAA/filler player.

Quero's slump did not last long.

White Sox: Edgar Quero, C (No. 5/MLB No. 58)
Good move: The Angels signed Quero for $200,000 in 2021 after he left Cuba. Bad move: They sent him to the White Sox as part of the Lucas Giolito/Reynaldo López trade two years later. Quero is now one of the best catching prospects in baseball, a switch-hitter with a mature approach and growing power. He has been Chicago's best hitter (.303/.403/.348) since getting his first big league callup in mid-April and also has held his own defensively.

Baldwin in the outfield and at the plate right now is yucky 

He seems to have lost confidence at the plate, becoming over-reliant on bunting...or fake bunting.

His playing time has suffered in recent weeks, so he's probably pressing and then they keep moving him all over the field, so he's not comfortable ANYWHERE defensively.

 

In all likelihood, he might be better off playing everyday in Charlotte at this point.  That said, the White Sox seem to be projecting him as "merely" a utility player with positional flexibility, limited power and good speed who MIGHT be the last or next to last player on a good/playoff-caliber MLB team.
