Wed May 21 2014 | 00:47 | Rienzo whiffs eight to earn win over Royals |
Andre Rienzo struck out eight and allowed two runs over six innings in Tuesday's win over the Royals. |
Don't look now, but Rienzo is 4-0 with a 4.00 ERA after Tuesday's win. He gave up five hits and walked two but, more importantly, he didn't allow a home run after serving up six in his first five starts. We're still not entirely sold on Rienzo as a mixed league asset, but he's certainly good enough to be owned in all AL-only leagues. He'll look to run his record higher against the Yankees on Sunday. |

Wed May 14 2014 | 19:22 | Rienzo limits Athletics to two runs in win |
Andre Rienzo allowed two runs -- on two solo home runs -- over 6 1/3 innings in a no-decision against the Athletics on Wednesday. |
The solo homers, to John Jaso and Josh Donaldson, were the only hits Rienzo allowed on the day. The right-hander also walked two while striking out four. An unheralded member of the White Sox rotation, Rienzo has a 3-0 record, 4.20 ERA and 1.27 WHIP in 30 innings, and the White Sox have won all five of his starts. He'll have a chance to run that perfect record higher Tuesday at the Royals. |

Andre Rienzo surrendered three runs over 5 2/3 innings in a victory over the Diamondbacks on Friday. |
Taking advantage of ample run support, Rienzo has gone 3-0 with a 4.56 ERA in his four starts. We still don't see much to like from a fantasy perspective. |

Sun May 4 2014 | 16:38 | Andre Rienzo struggles in no-decision |
Andre Rienzo labored through 4 2/3 frames but escaped with a no-decision Sunday, allowing three runs on seven hits and four walks in a 4-3 win over the Indians. |
Rienzo served up a pair of solo shots to George Kottaras and needed a whopping 99 pitches to get through the 4 2/3 innings. He was bailed out, though, as the bullpen spun 4 1/3 scoreless frames and the offense rallied in the ninth. Rienzo was much better in his previous two outings, but with Scott Carroll pitching well and Chris Sale (elbow) due back before long, he can't afford any more slip-ups. The young righty get the D'Backs at home next weekend. |

Tue Apr 29 2014 | 00:06 | Andre Rienzo beats Rays for second win |
Andre Rienzo allowed three runs -- two earned -- over six innings Monday to beat the Rays and move to 2-0. |
Rienzo has won both of his starts, so he'll stay in the White Sox rotation for now. Still, his stuff is mediocre and his command is below average. We doubt he'll be an asset in AL-only leagues. |

Wed Apr 23 2014 | 22:17 | Rienzo gets into the seventh, takes the win |
Andre Rienzo got the win in Wednesday's start against the Tigers, allowing four runs in 6 1/3 innings. |
Rienzo, filling in for the injured Felipe Paulino, mostly stayed out of trouble, but the Tigers took advantage of him in the fourth inning, hanging a four-spot on the board. Rienzo surrendered five hits and two walks while striking out three. He will face the Rays the next time out. |

Sun Apr 20 2014 | 19:34 | Andre Rienzo expected to start on Wednesday |
Despite throwing 26 pitches out of the bullpen on Sunday, White Sox manager Robin Ventura said Andre Rienzo is the favorite to start on Wednesday. |
Rienzo will take the spot of Felipe Paulino who hit the disabled list on Saturday. He was extremely inconsistent during 10 starts with the White Sox in 2013, and is unlikely to have much value in mixed leagues this time around. |

Andre Rienzo has been scratched from Friday's start against the Tigers due to a finger issue. |
It's not clear exactly what he's dealing with, but obviously it's bad enough that the White Sox don't want to risk it. Dylan Axelrod will get the ball in Rienzo's place. |

Thu Aug 15 2013 | 23:36 | Andre Rienzo takes no-decision versus Twins |
Andre Rienzo surrendered two runs -- one earned -- in six innings Thursday in a no-decision against the Twins. |
It's Rienzo's third quality start in four tries. It's also his fourth no-decision in four tries. This was the second time he's left with a lead and seen it get blown by the bullpen, as Nate Jones let this one slip away in the eighth. Rienzo has a 3.70 ERA so far. It looks like he'll get the Royals and Astros in his next two starts, so he remains a decent play in AL-only leagues. |

Rienzo gave up five hits and walked three, striking out six in his major league debut. The right-hander started in place of Jake Peavy, who may be dealt in the next 18 hours. If Peavy does move, Rienzo has certainly earned another start. The 25-year-old should be grabbed in AL-only leagues if he isn't owned already. |

The 25-year-old right-hander owns a 4.06 ERA and 113 strikeouts over 113 innings this season in Triple-A and has been brilliant over the past two months.
