Miguel Vargas' swing looks out of sync right now, but it only takes one swing to get hot. Mune is seeing the ball well and is bound to run into one sooner than later. @whitesox @MLB

Great swing from Colson Montgomery !! @whitesox Power-fade. He's a guy who could get hot & carry the team offensively this series. @MLB

I really like Miguel Vargas in the 2-hole with Murakami behind him. Puts em both in their 'natural positions'. Vargas is a table-setter with power and Mune is a patient masher. Great to see Vargas' oppo-power showing up too! @whitesox @MLB #TheLeadoffSpot

Geraldo Perdomo was terrific on @roku live in-game microphone @Dbacks Appreciate him focusing on the game more than the media/tv coverage while also providing insights. #PrimaElBeisbol #PrimaLaCarne @mlb #Ballplayer

Unable to get consistent playing time/ABs @dodgers Miguel Vargas should get an opportunity to play everyday, relax, & build confidence without living and dying with every plate appearance. @whitesox should offer more suitable environment to gain experience and grow @MLB level.

Tommy Edman will be a great addition to @Dodgers if he can stay healthy. Plus-defender at multiple positions (SS, 2B, 3B, OF) and could be everyday shortstop to allow Betts to return to outfield. Dynamic two-way role-player could cure many ills. #Ballplayer

Miguel Vargas has hit safely in nine consecutive games in which he's started @dodgers He deserves to get some ABs against RHP #Ballplayer @MLB

Miguel Rojas hitting .283 BA overall. Last 7 G: .370/.414/.481 (.895 OPS). He's @Dodgers best defender at 2B, 3B, and SS (Mookie is great but not a SS). Rojas getting replaced by Lux/K. Hernandez (poor defenders/poor offensively) regularly is baffling. #EverydayPlayer @MLB
