Wed Jun 14 202318:33Eloy Jimenez Returning To The Lineup
Chicago White Sox outfielder Eloy Jimenez (leg) is back in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Los Angeles Dodgers. The 26-year-old slugger is back in the lineup after a four-game absence due to left leg discomfort. Hopefully, Jimenez is back on track now as injuries have held him back this season. He's slashing .257/.315/.434 with six home runs and 24 RBI in 35 games. He'll serve as the designated hitter and bat cleanup versus lefty Clayton Kershaw on Wednesday. Fantasy managers should make sure to get Jimenez back in their lineups.

Tue Jun 13 202318:37Eloy Jimenez Remains Out On Tuesday
Chicago White Sox outfielder Eloy Jimenez (leg) remains out of the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Los Angeles Dodgers. The 26-year-old was pulled out from Thursday's game due to a left leg injury. He has been sidelined since then, but still hasn't been placed on the injured list. It sounds like the team believes it's a minor injury, so hopefully Jimenez is back soon. He'll likely be placed on the injured list if he isn't back in a few days. In the meantime, Gavin Sheets will cover right field, while Jake Burger serves as the designated hitter versus right-hander Tony Gonsolin on Tuesday.

Sun Jun 11 202312:25Eloy Jimenez Still Sitting Out
Chicago White Sox outfielder Eloy Jimenez (calf) remains out of the starting lineup on Sunday against the Miami Marlins. Fantasy managers shouldn't be surprised in the slightest, as it was reported a few days ago that Jimenez was expected to miss at least a couple games after injuring his left calf on Thursday. The White Sox aren't going to push the oft-injured 26-year-old and make it worse, and there's still a chance he'll need an injured-list stint. Although he's never stolen a base in the big leagues, Jimenez has plenty of skills offensively after clubbing 31 home runs in his rookie season in 2019. He's currently batting .257 (35-for-136) with six doubles, six homers and 24 RBI in 35 games played. Clint Frazier is starting in right field and hitting leadoff on Sunday against Marlins left-hander Braxton Garrett.

Fri Jun 9 202322:08Eloy Jimenez To Miss Multiple Games
Chicago White Sox outfielder/designated hitter Eloy Jimenez (leg) will miss multiple games. The 26-year-old exited the second game of Thursday's doubleheader against the New York Yankees after experiencing discomfort "right below" his left calf. Skipper Pedro Grifol reported Jimenez underwent a "pretty good exam." However, a trip to the injured list could be on the horizon, although the team is obviously hoping to avoid going in that direction. Jimenez has already spent time on the IL this season, so another stint isn't ideal for fantasy managers. That said, he should remain stashed, even if he's looking at a lengthy absence.

Fri Jun 9 202318:39Eloy Jimenez Absent From Friday's Lineup
Chicago White Sox outfielder Eloy Jimenez (leg) is out of the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Miami Marlins. This doesn't come as a surprise after Jimenez left early during Thursday's doubleheader due to a left leg injury. The 26-year-old suffered a left leg injury while trying to run out a grounder in the ninth inning. The good news is, Jimenez hasn't been placed on the injured list yet. Hopefully, this is only a minor issue and Jimenez will be back in a game or two. Jake Burger will function as the designated hitter and bat sixth versus right-hander Eury Perez on Friday.

Fri Jun 9 202316:21Eloy Jimenez Not In Friday's Lineup
Chicago White Sox outfielder Eloy Jimenez (leg) is absent on Friday against the visiting Miami Marlins. Jimenez will get the day off to begin a weekend series against Miami after he left the second game of a doubleheader on Thursday against the New York Yankees with a leg injury. Fantasy managers will want to consider Jimenez day-to-day for now, but hopefully we'll see him back in there at some point on Saturday or Sunday. The oft-injured 26-year-old Dominican is currently hitting .257 (35-for-136) with six doubles, six home runs, 24 RBI and 17 runs scored in 35 games, and he should be rostered in all fantasy leagues. Gavin Sheets is making the start in right field and hitting eighth, while Jake Burger is the designated hitter and batting sixth on Friday against Marlins right-hander Eury Perez.

Thu Jun 8 202323:08Eloy Jimenez Day-To-Day With Leg Injury
Updating a previous report, Chicago White Sox outfielder Eloy Jimenez (leg) is being considered day-to-day with a lower left-leg issue after he was forced to exit the second game of Thursday's doubleheader against the New York Yankees early. Jimenez pulled up lame after running to first base in the ninth inning, but the early indication is that he avoided a serious injury. Still, there's a pretty good chance Jimenez won't be available to fantasy managers for the start of a weekend series against the visiting Miami Marlins on Friday. The 26-year-old went 1-for-4 with a go-ahead home run, two RBI, a run scored, a walk and two strikeouts before leaving the contest in the ninth inning. Jimenez isn't going to contribute stolen bases but there's plenty of upside elsewhere when he's healthy.

Thu Jun 8 202322:42Eloy Jimenez Leaves Contest Early Thursday
Chicago White Sox outfielder Eloy Jimenez (undisclosed) was moving slowly after hitting a ground ball to shortstop on Thursday against the New York Yankees in the second game of a doubleheader that seemed like a surefire double play. Jimenez was grimacing after making it to first base and then was pulled from the game for a pinch-runner with what appeared to be some sort of leg injury. The White Sox should provide an update on Jimenez soon, but this could be something that sends the oft-injured outfielder to the injured list. The good news is he went 1-for-4 with his sixth home run of the year, two RBI, a run scored, a walk and two strikeouts in the game before departing. For now, consider the 26-year-old as day-to-day. Jimenez entered the day hitting .258 (33-for-128) with six doubles, five homers and 22 RBI in 33 games played.

Tue May 30 202312:16Eloy Jimenez Hits Fifth Homer Of The Season
Chicago White Sox outfielder Eloy Jimenez went 2-for-4 with his fifth home run of the season, two RBI, a run scored and a strikeout in the team's 6-4 loss to the Los Angeles Angels on Memorial Day on Monday night. The long ball was Jimenez's first since returning from the injured list on Sunday. The 26-year-old Dominican has had trouble staying healthy in his career, but he's a dynamic outfielder when healthy and should continue to hit in the heart of Chicago's batting order. He's now slashing .269/.339/.462 with an .801 OPS, five doubles, five homers, 19 RBI and 14 runs scored in 115 trips to the plate and 27 games in 2023. Keep Jimenez in your starting fantasy lineups on a daily basis.

Sun May 28 202312:06White Sox Reinstate Eloy Jimenez From Injured List
The Chicago White Sox reinstated outfielder Eloy Jimenez (appendix) from the 10-day injured list on Sunday and optioned outfielder Adam Haseley to Triple-A Charlotte in a corresponding move. Jimenez is right back in the starting lineup, playing right field and batting second on Sunday against the Detroit Tigers and left-hander Eduardo Rodriguez. The 26-year-old will return to the Pale Hose after missing almost a month after having an appendectomy, but fantasy managers will have him back after he played in three minor-league rehab games for Charlotte. Before he hit the injured list, Jimenez was hitting .258 (25-for-97) with four doubles, four home runs, 15 RBI and 12 runs scored in 25 games played. He will return to being an everyday player for Chicago in the outfield/designated hitter.

Sat May 27 202313:22Eloy Jimenez Could Return To The Team As Soon As Sunday
Chicago White Sox outfielder Eloy Jimenez (appendectomy) could return to the team as early as Sunday against the Detroit Tigers, per manager Pedro Grifol. This is encouraging news for the White Sox and fantasy managers alike. Jimenez has appeared in three games on his minor league rehab assignment with Double-A Birmingham and hasn't suffered any setbacks. He's been out since the beginning of May after undergoing an appendectomy. It's worth checking your waiver wire to see if he's still available in any leagues where he was dropped.

Tue May 23 202317:14Eloy Jimenez To Spend 3-4 Days On Rehab Assignment
Chicago White Sox manager Pedro Grifol said that outfielder Eloy Jimenez (abdomen) will spend three to four days on a minor-league rehab assignment with Double-A Birmingham this week before the team evaluates him. Infielder Elvis Andrus (oblique) will also need a rehab assignment, and it probably won't come until next week. If everything goes well for Jimenez at Birmingham, he could come off the injured list to join the White Sox this weekend. The 26-year-old slugger has been sidelined since early May after having an emergency appendectomy, so fantasy managers may want to prepare for some rust when he returns. He's played in 25 games this year and has hit .258 (25-for-97) with four doubles, four home runs and 15 RBI. When healthy, Jimenez is an everyday player for the Pale Hose.

Sat May 20 202313:55Eloy Jimenez Ahead Of Schedule In His Recovery
Chicago White Sox outfielder Eloy Jimenez (abdomen) is "ahead of schedule" in his recovery according to manager Pedro Grifol. Jimenez underwent an appendectomy procedure several weeks ago so it's nice to hear that he's progressing ahead of his timetable. On Wednesday, Jimenez told reporters that he hopes to return to the lineup next weekend around May 26-28. Fantasy managers should keep a close eye on his status over the next few days to make sure he sticks to this new optimistic timeline.

Wed May 17 202323:08Eloy Jimenez Hopes To Return By Next Weekend
Chicago White Sox outfielder Eloy Jimenez (appendix) said he felt like he "was going to die" when he woke up with intense pain caused by appendicitis. Jimenez is feeling good now, though, and is running and playing catch. After a minor-league rehab assignment, he's hoping to be ready to return from the 10-day injured list potentially by next weekend. The 26-year-old had an appendectomy on May 6 and was originally expected to miss over a month of action for the White Sox. Chicago needs a healthy Jimenez back in order to turn things around this year. Before he landed on the injured list, he was hitting .258 (25-for-97) with four doubles, four home runs, 15 RBI and 12 runs scored in 25 games played.

Sat May 6 202321:45Eloy Jimenez Undergoes Appendectomy, Out 4-6 Weeks
Chicago White Sox outfielder Eloy Jimenez (abdomen) underwent an appendectomy on Saturday. The 26-year-old is expected to out next four to six weeks. He complained about abdominal pain Saturday night and was taken to the hospital for further evaluation, which led to removing his appendix. Jimenez is slashing .258/.351/.423 with four home runs, 15 RBI, and 12 runs across 25 games in 2022. Jimenez is expected to go on the injured list and has missed 185 games the last two seasons due to injuries. Gavin Sheets is expected to see an uptick in at-bats while Jimenez is sidelined, and the White Sox could recall outfield prospect Oscar Colas after recently demoting him to the minors earlier in the week.

Sat May 6 202318:22Eloy Jimenez Out Saturday With Abdominal Pain
Chicago White Sox outfielder/designated hitter Eloy Jimenez (abdomen) is not in the White Sox lineup Saturday against the Reds as he deals with abdominal pain. The 26-year-old spent Friday night at a local Cincinnati hospital and this injury will cost him at least one game. Manager Pedro Grifol said there should be an update on the status of Jimenez sometime Saturday. It's concerning, though, for a player who missed nearly half of last year and already has one stay on the injured list in 2023. Fantasy managers hope the former Silver Slugger can get back soon, as Jimenez was tearing the cover off the ball during his current eight-game hitting streak. He's got a .424 batting average, three extra-base hits, and eight RBI over this torrid stretch.

Thu May 4 202318:08Eloy Jimenez Homers, Drives In Three
Chicago White Sox outfielder Eloy Jimenez went 3-for-5 on Thursday with a home run and three RBI. Jimenez also scored a run and took a walk in the afternoon loss versus the Minnesota Twins. The 26-year-old got off to a slow start for the White Sox but has turned it around over the last two weeks, especially over the last seven days. Over his last 29 at-bats, he has a .448/.500/.690 slash line with two homers and eight RBI. He's been dropped in several leagues, but he is someone worth stashing, as he can be a fantasy force when everything is right for him at the plate.

Fri Apr 14 202316:05Eloy Jimenez Activated, Yoan Moncada Put On 10-Day IL
The Chicago White Sox officially reinstated outfielder Eloy Jimenez (hamstring) from the 10-day injured list on Friday and placed third baseman Yoan Moncada (back) on the 10-day IL (retroactive to April 11) with lower back soreness in a corresponding move. The team also recalled left-hander Tanner Banks from Triple-A Charlotte, optioned right-hander Jesse Scholtens to Charlotte, claimed infielder/outfielder Nick Solak off waivers from the Seattle Mariners and optioned him to Charlotte and moved righty Matt Foster (forearm) to the 60-day IL. Jimenez wasn't hitting very well in a small sample size before his injury, but he's hitting cleanup on Friday in his return to the lineup and needs to be rostered in all fantasy leagues. With Moncada out, expect Hanser Alberto and ... [More]

Fri Apr 14 202314:59Eloy Jimenez To Be Activated On Friday
Chicago White Sox outfielder Eloy Jimenez (hamstring) has been activated from the 10-day injured list on Friday. The 26-year-old has been working his way back from a low-grade hamstring strain. It appears he's ready to return after a short stint on the injured list. The expectation is that Jimenez will be back in the White Sox lineup on Friday. He'll look to get back on track after hitting .211 with three RBI before the injury.

Fri Apr 14 202312:20Eloy Jimenez Expected To Return Friday
Chicago White Sox outfielder Eloy Jimenez (hamstring) is expected to come off the injured list and be in the starting lineup on Friday against the Baltimore Orioles and right-hander Tyler Wells. Jimenez has looked good in recent days. The 26-year-old's injury was never considered very serious, but he's likely to return in the designated hitter role to ease him back in. Jimenez was hitting only .211 (4-for-19) with two doubles and three RBI in his first five games before getting injured, but he needs to be rostered in all fantasy formats because of his high-end upside with the lumber. Third baseman Yoan Moncada (back) could take Jimenez's place on the injured list in a corresponding move before Friday's contest against Baltimore.
