White Sox Minor Keys: May 15, 2019
Eloy Jiménez got a couple of plate appearances and played left field in his second rehab game when he was lifted in the sixth inning. He’d singled and struck out and showed no apparent signs of physical distress, so now we play the waiting game…

Nice
Did anybody from the Knights say why Eloy was removed?
Had to catch a flight…presumably.
What’s the report on Burdi? Still sitting in the low 90s?
Also, who is the hitting coach in Birmingham?
93-96
Charles Poe. He’s been in the org for 9 years.
