Chicago White Sox outfielder/designated Eloy Jimenez is not in the team's starting lineup on Saturday against the hosting Miami Marlins for the second game of the weekend series. Gavin Sheets is serving as the designated hitter and is batting cleanup, while Tommy Pham starts in right field and bats leadoff against Marlins right-hander Yonny Chirinos. Since missing around a month with an injury and returning on June 23, Jimenez has gone 10-for-38 (.263) with no home runs, two doubles, an RBI, four walks and seven strikeouts in 11 games played for the Pale Hose. The 27-year-old Dominican won't rack up many counting stats on the worst team in baseball, but when healthy, he's a lineup regular. Jimenez has failed to live up to the hype after hitting 31 homers in his rookie season in 2019. However, he has gone 7-for-19 with two runs scored in his last six games.
Chicago White Sox outfielder/designated hitter Eloy Jimenez is getting the day off on Saturday versus the visiting Colorado Rockies. With Jimenez starting on the bench, outfielder Gavin Sheets (heel) will return to the lineup as the designated hitter and will bat cleanup against Rockies right-hander Cal Quantrill. Since returning from a long stay on the injured list on June 23, Jimenez has been rusty at the plate, going 3-for-19 (.158) with a double, RBI, walk, four strikeouts and two runs scored in five games played. The 27-year-old Dominican outfielder will continue to be a regular for the worst team in baseball, but fantasy managers obviously won't be able to count on much production from him. Jimenez is currently hitting just .222/.277/.359 on the year with five homers, 13 RBI and 14 runs scored in 41 games.
Chicago White Sox outfielder Eloy Jimenez (hamstring) remains in the starting lineup ahead of Monday's game against the Los Angeles Dodgers. This is somewhat surprising considering Jimenez mentioned experiencing hamstring soreness in his return on Sunday. Despite that, the oft-injured outfielder will remain in the starting lineup for Monday's game. He'll serve as the designated hitter and bat cleanup versus left-hander James Paxton.
The Chicago White Sox reinstated outfielder/designated hitter Eloy Jimenez (hamstring) from the 10-day injured list on Sunday and optioned outfielder Oscar Colas to Triple-A Charlotte in a corresponding move. Jimenez is right back in the starting lineup on Sunday against the Detroit Tigers and right-hander Reese Olson, serving as the designated hitter and batting third in the order. In seven career at-bats against Olson, Jimenez hasn't recorded a single hit. The 27-year-old has been sidelined since straining his left hamstring on May 21, but he went 8-for-18 with a homer, double and five RBI on his minor-league rehab assignment in the Arizona Complex League. Despite his inability to stay on the field consistently due to injuries, Jimenez deserves to be rostered in most fantasy leagues now that he's back in the fold.
Chicago White Sox general manager Chris Getz said during Thursday's game against the visiting Baltimore Orioles that designated hitter Eloy Jimenez (hamstring) is expected to miss "a month or so." It specifies Jimenez's return timetable after manager Pedro Grifol stated earlier on Thursday that an extended absence was in store for the outfielder as he recovers from a strained left hamstring, which he sustained in Monday's contest against the Toronto Blue Jays. The oft-injured 27-year-old slugger may have stolen a career-high three bases across 36 games as Chicago's everyday DH before going down, but he was slashing a career-worst .231/.288/.381 with five home runs, five doubles, and 12 RBI through 134 at-bats. Jimenez isn't the strongest stash in most fantasy leagues.
