Luis Robert Not In Lineup Saturday Afternoon

Chicago White Sox outfielder Luis Robert is not in the starting lineup on Saturday afternoon. This appears to be a day off for Robert, who has started in nine of the team's last 11 games since being activated from the 60-day injured list. Robert has been on a hot streak since his return, slashing .385/.400/.615 […]

Tim Anderson Getting A Rest Day Saturday

Chicago White Sox shortstop Tim Anderson (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Tampa Bay Rays. This appears to be a routine rest day, so Anderson can recover for the stretch run. Fantasy managers should expect Anderson to be back in the lineup for Sunday's contest. In the meantime, Danny […]

Reynaldo Lopez To Be Demoted To Bullpen

Chicago White Sox starting pitcher Reynaldo Lopez has been a stellar option in both the rotation and bullpen this season. Thus far, Lopez has posted a 1.08 ERA, 0.72 WHIP and 26/7 K/BB ratio across 25 innings (11 appearances, three starts) this season. The 27-year-old has been fantastic, but will soon hand over the rotation […]

Lucas Giolito Takes Hard-Luck No-Decision

Chicago White Sox starting pitcher Lucas Giolito was forced to take a no-decision Friday despite tossing a gem against the Tampa Bay Rays. Giolito allowed two runs on three hits and no walks while striking out eight over seven innings, but relief pitcher Aaron Bummer relinquished the lead in the eighth inning. Giolito has now […]

EPL Betting Picks for Matchweek 2: English Premier League

A bit of an inauspicious start to the season, going 2-for-6. Thankfully, the two winners were the big plays so the damage was minimized. Unfortunately for us, Arsenal had to do without their top-two strikers (both of whom were absent due to illness which wasn't known until a few hours before kick-off) and had to […]

Dylan Cease Earns Quality Start In No-Decision

Chicago White Sox starting pitcher Dylan Cease recorded a quality start in Thursday's no-decision versus the Oakland Athletics. The right-hander went six innings and allowed four hits, three runs, four walks and five strikeouts. The four walks weren't ideal for Cease and that has been a major weakness for him this season, but he otherwise […]

Liam Hendriks Not Available For Thursday

Chicago White Sox reliever Liam Hendriks will not pitch Thursday against the Oakland Athletics, according to manager Tony La Russa. Hendriks threw 23 pitches in 1.2 innings the day before and is getting the day off. Expect Craig Kimbrel to pitch if a save situation arises. Hendriks is having another fantastic year out of the […]
