Classic

Sample sizes are your friend.

Leury, Moncada, Abreu, McCann, Jay, Jimenez, Yolmer, Collins DH, Cordell not much to complain about here. Wouldn’t mind seeing Jay in CF and Palka in RF but this works too.

Interested to see this lineup.

Hamilton and Burdi should be healthy for next year. Hamilton will be in the pen. Burdi is a big question mark at this point, but I suppose the knee is better than an arm injury.

Ya in a White Sox thread discussing Yonder Alonso you guys are off talking about Cubs players. This thread was literally about Quintana, and I responded to the OP question. This board spends so much time discussing meaningless Cubs bullshit it’s insane. I apologize if it seemed like I was attacking you - it’s obviously not just you, and that was not my intention. Just gets annoying to weed through.

Can’t put guys in the minors on the MLB 60 day IL. Ryan Burr is the only one could can go on 60 day.

Is Hansen hurt too right now? Thought he’s just been bad in AA, but healthy so far this season.

I do preferred Mendick. But Cordell can definitely play the IF if need be. He played a lot of infield in the minors, though the Sox have yet to use him there at all in minors or majors.

Gonna be tough for Burdi to return from this one and the TJS.

TJS as well. Just brutal.

Multiple facial fractures after getting hit in face with foul ball. JFC what an afternoon.

Assuming Moncada has to sit and the Sox have a boner for Leury at SS right now, why not go with this lineup again RHP: Leury SS, Jay CF, Abreu 1B, McCann C, Palka RF, Eloy LF, Collins DH, Sanchez 2B, Rondon 3B If you're going to have Palka on the roster with Collins, you best be prepared to play him in OF, otherwise he makes absolutely zero sense on the roster.

Leury SS, Jay RF, Abreu 1B, McCann C, Palka DH, Eloy LF, Sanchez 2B, Tilson CF, Rondon 3B lol. Palka already taking Collins at bats.

Meh, don't really buy that. If that is the case, why ever announce SP beforehand?

Very limited options. It was basically Detwiler or Kubat who has just 9 starts above A ball. I guess they could have just got with Cease today and not used his last night in AAA, but clearly they're in no hurry there.

Detwiler threw 2 innings on Monday. Probably won't be expected to go more than 4 innings or so, if he can make it that far. Expect this to be a short stint in the majors for Ross - expect Santiago and Covey back next week.

Detwiler it is.

You should have applied, Lip.

Sox love to wait as long as possible to make roster move announcements. No reason for these not to have been announced this morning.

This probably isn't even worth responding. Rondon can't be sent down, he'd need to DFA'd as he out of options. Journeyman players make very little sense for a team like the White Sox that are in the later stages of a rebuilding process. If the Sox have opportunities to give, it should go to younger guys that are going to have a hard time breaking into the bigs in the next season or two. Mendick fits that description. If the plan was to just let Rondon play SS for a few weeks while Timmy is out and Sanchez stays at 2B and its purely as a back-up IF that plays once per week, sure I'd prefer to use a guy like Goins over a guy like Mendick. But Rondon is not an everyday player, and Yoan seems to be getting dinged up alot this season, so whomever is the back-up infielder the next few weeks is going to get a decent amount of work. Don't waste those at bats on a shit player like Goins, or Escobar for that matte.r

Collins and Mercedes would make one hell of a townball catching platoon!
