Sat Aug 5 202316:55Eloy Jimenez Returns To The Lineup
Chicago White Sox outfielder Eloy Jimenez (heel) is back in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Cleveland Guardians. He'll return after missing each of the last two games due to heel soreness. Luckily, it was only a minor injury and it didn't force Jimenez onto the injured list. He'll serve as the designated hitter and bat cleanup versus right-hander Noah Syndergaard on Saturday. Jimenez is slashing .281/.325/.467 with 13 home runs, 47 RBI this season. Fantasy managers should make sure to get him back in their lineups on Saturday.

Fri Aug 4 202319:08Eloy Jimenez Out With Sore Heel
Updating a previous report, Chicago White Sox outfielder Eloy Jimenez (heel) is out of the starting lineup for the second straight game on Friday against the Cleveland Guardians due to a sore heel, according to manager Pedro Grifol. With Jimenez out, Oscar Colas is serving as the designated hitter and batting eighth against Guardians left-hander Logan Allen. Consider the 26-year-old Jimenez to be day-to-day for now. Hopefully he'll be able to play at some point this weekend in the series in Cleveland. In his 285 at-bats as a regular for the White Sox in 2023 when he's been healthy, Jimenez has hit a strong .281/.325/.467 with 13 home runs, 47 RBI and 33 runs scored in 74 games. He's missed his fair share of games in his big-league career due to injuries and has played in over 100 games in a season just once, back in 2019 in his rookie campaign.

Fri Aug 4 202316:14Eloy Jimenez Out Again For White Sox
Chicago White Sox outfielder Eloy Jimenez is out of the starting lineup again on Friday for the start of a series against the Cleveland Guardians. Jimenez was also absent from the lineup for the series finale on Thursday against the Texas Rangers. The 26-year-old Dominican has been hitting well since July 20, going 15-for-43 (.349) with a home run, three doubles, seven RBI and four runs scored in 12 games. There's been no word of an injury for Jimenez, so it looks like Chicago is just giving him a few days to rest up. He's hitting .281/.325/.467 through 74 games and 305 plate appearances in 2023 with 13 home runs, 14 doubles, 47 RBI and 33 runs scored. Jimenez is still looking for the first stolen base of his career through 390 games played.

Thu Aug 3 202312:16Eloy Jimenez Retreats To The Bench
Chicago White Sox outfielder Eloy Jimenez isn't in the team's starting lineup on Thursday as they take on the Texas Rangers. With Jimenez starting on the bench, Gavin Sheets will serve as the designated hitter and will bat seventh against Rangers right-hander Max Scherzer. It's a normal day of rest for Jimenez in the matinee affair. The 26-year-old Dominican has been solid in 2023 when he's been healthy, but he has still yet to steal a base in the big leagues in his fifth season with the White Sox. In 73 games (304 plate appearances) this year, Jimenez is batting .282/.326/.468 with 13 home runs, 14 doubles, 47 RBI and 33 runs scored. He has yet to repeat his rookie campaign when he clubbed 31 homers and drove in 79 in 122 games in 2019.

Sat Jul 29 202314:33Teams Reportedly Interested In Eloy Jimenez
Chicago White Sox designated hitter Eloy Jimenez is drawing interest from the Brewers and Marlins, according to Rick Levine of AM 670 The Score. The White Sox made some moves of late, so it's possible the team isn't done. The 26-year-old slugger has a .277 average with 84 home runs, 405 hits, and 257 RBI during his career. However, he has been limited by injuries. A change of scenery likely won't impact Jimenez's ability to stay healthy. But his production will be affected one way or another, depending on if he's traded. Jimenez is under contract through 2024, with the club holding options for 2025 and 2026.

Sun Jul 23 202310:07Eloy Jimenez Still Limited By Groin Injury
Chicago White Sox designated hitter Eloy Jimenez (groin) is set to be included in Sunday's starting lineup against the Minnesota Twins despite remaining encumbered by his balky groin. White Sox skipper Pedro Grifol believes Jimenez's bat is worth keeping in the lineup even if he's a liability while running the bases. We're inclined to agree, as Chicago carries one offensive disappointment after another besides Luis Robert Jr.'s MVP-caliber campaign. Jimenez is hitting .300 in 30 at-bats across his last nine games, but he only has one RBI over this span.

Thu Jul 20 202312:11Eloy Jimenez Makes His Return
Chicago White Sox outfielder Eloy Jimenez (groin) is back in the starting lineup on Thursday against the New York Mets and left-hander Jose Quintana. Jimenez is serving as the designated hitter and batting cleanup. He missed the last two games while nursing a minor groin injury, but fantasy managers will have him back headed into the weekend. Hopefully he'll be able to pick up where he's left off in July, as he's gone 11-for-38 with two home runs, six RBI and five runs scored in 11 games this month. Jimenez has still yet to steal a base in his major-league career, and he's slashing .269/.313/.463 with 12 home runs, 11 doubles, 40 RBI and 29 runs scored in 62 games this year. Get him back into your starting lineups.

Wed Jul 19 202316:08Eloy Jimenez Missing Another Game
Chicago White Sox outfielder Eloy Jimenez (groin) is on the bench again on Wednesday with the team facing the New York Mets. Jimenez hasn't played since leaving Sunday's game against the Atlanta Braves early with left-groin tightness. The White Sox said Jimenez was available off the bench on Tuesday, but he ultimately was not used and he'll begin on the bench again on Wednesday. The team said the other day that the 26-year-old could miss four to five games this week, so it shouldn't be much of a surprise. And if Jimenez doesn't improve soon, he could land on the injured list. Rookie Oscar Colas is getting a start in right field on Wednesday and is hitting eighth in the lineup against Mets veteran right-hander Justin Verlander.

Tue Jul 18 202318:57Eloy Jimenez Available Off The Bench
Chicago White Sox outfielder Eloy Jimenez (groin) is expected to be held out of the starting lineup for a few days after suffering an injury on Sunday. However, manager Pedro Grifol mentioned that Jimenez will be available off the bench for Tuesday's game. The 26-year-old woke up on Tuesday feeling much better, according to Grifol. That is great news as Jimenez was originally expected to sit out most of the week. Now, it seems possible that Jimenez could return to the lineup as early as Wednesday. Fantasy managers should check back for another update on his status.

Tue Jul 18 202316:27Eloy Jimenez Still Out Against Mets
As expected, Chicago White Sox outfielder Eloy Jimenez (groin) remains out of the starting lineup on Tuesday against the New York Mets. Jimenez is expected to be out of action for the Pale Hose for four to five days after he injured his left groin on Sunday against the Atlanta Braves in the series finale. The oft-injured 26-year-old could still land on the injured list as well. Yasmani Grandal will serve as the designated hitter and bat sixth on Tuesday against Mets veteran right-hander Carlos Carrasco. Jimenez has yet to steal a base in his major-league career, and he's currently batting .269 (65-for-242) with 12 home runs, 11 doubles, 40 RBI and 29 runs scored in 259 trips to the plate over 62 games played. All things considered, he's been a bit of a disappointment for fantasy managers. The good news is he'll be available off the bench.

Mon Jul 17 202312:06Eloy Jimenez Could Be Out 4-5 Days
Chicago White Sox outfielder Eloy Jimenez (groin) will be further evaluated after injuring his groin on Sunday against the Atlanta Braves, and manager Pedro Grifol said that he could be out four to five days. The White Sox have an off day on Monday before beginning a series against the New York Mets on Tuesday, but fantasy managers shouldn't expect Jimenez to be back in there by then. The oft-injured 26-year-old could still land on the injured list, so fantasy managers need to prepare for that possibility. Jimenez went 0-for-1 on Sunday before leaving early, and he's now hitting .269/.313/.463 on the season with 12 home runs, 11 doubles, 40 RBI and 29 runs scored in 259 plate appearances and 62 games played.

Sun Jul 16 202314:18Eloy Jimenez Leaves Sunday With Groin Issue
Chicago White Sox outfielder Eloy Jimenez left Sunday's contest against the Atlanta Braves prematurely after experiencing left groin tightness, according to the team's Twitter. He will be further evaluated, but fantasy managers should consider him day-to-day. Jimenez has dealt with numerous injuries over his carer and has only played in 61 games this season, in which he's slashed .270/.314/.465 with 12 homers, 29 runs, and 40 RBI. Gavin Sheets came into the game on Sunday as the 26-year-old's replacement and should receive most of the playing time if he's forced to miss more games.

Sun Jul 2 202322:53Eloy Jimenez Removed From Game Early On Sunday
Chicago White Sox outfielder Eloy Jimenez exited Sunday's game early with unspecified soreness. Jimenez was pinch-hit for in the eighth with the White Sox up 8-3. He appeared to be okay in the clubhouse and gave a thumbs-up to media members after the game. Hopefully, this is just a situation where he wasn't feeling 100% heading into the game and with a big lead he was taken out to protect against further injury. It is always scary seeing Jimenez being taken out of a game with his injury history, and fantasy managers will want to wait for more news on Jimenez before they put their lineups together for next week.

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.
