Like Eloy, Robert has about 4 weeks of increased baseball activity and then he can go on rehab assignment So, again like Eloy, looks like he's heading for a best case scenario at this time.

Absolutely Outstanding!!! -
A friend of mine said he saw an article today that has Eloy possibly returning to the team in two weeks. A bit overly optimistic, but, hey.......Comment

Would be nice but I can't see the Sox risking this. They are going to make damn sure they don't have another situation like Engel who comes back for 10 games then is out again.Originally posted by Dumpjerry View PostComment

Engel was called back at 90% because they needed him. Once it became evident he wasn't going to progress further and was struggling they shut him down again. They won't be rushing Eloy, no, but the instant he's ready, he'll be playing especially since he'll be spending a lot of time at DH initially, so the risk is different than with Engel who requires his legs to be effective in his role and didn't have them.Originally posted by Lipman 1 View PostRiding Shotgun on the Sox Bandwagon since before there was an Internet...

Eloy announced tonight that he is 100%, and is going to start a rehab stint as soon as this weekend!

This is unbelievable if true! Can't get this guy in the lineup soon enough. So back right after the AS break? He should immediately help Jose, Moncada and Anderson relax a bit more and get back to being themselves.Originally posted by ChiTownTrojan View PostComment

There's a difference between a 24 year old saying they are ready to play and said athlete actually being ready to play, but obviously this is better news than Eloy saying he still has some lingering soreness or pain or whatever. The Sox need to be conservative with Eloy (and Robert) and keep in mind not just what's best for the 2021 White Sox, but also the 2022, 2023, etc. teams."Hope...may be indulged in by those who have abundant resources...but those who stake their all upon the venture see it in its true colors only after they are ruined."

So, are you suggesting that the Sox medical/training staff are just taking Eloy's word for it that he's ready to play?Originally posted by HomeFish View Post

No I'm suggesting we wait for an announcement from the Sox that Eloy is 2 weeks away from a rehab assignment, rather than taking what he is saying on instagram."Hope...may be indulged in by those who have abundant resources...but those who stake their all upon the venture see it in its true colors only after they are ruined."

If that's how you want to take this news, go ahead.Originally posted by HomeFish View Post
For me, I'm excited by the fact that Eloy says he has been told by the team that he is starting his rehab stint in less than a week. Sure there's no official announcement yet, but I can't imagine why he would lie about such a thing.Comment

This has got me thinking about our trade position. If Eloy and Luis can return sooner than originally predicted, then for one thing in my mind is that the Sox may not be as desperate as some GMs may have thought. This would be a benefit to Hahn's negotiating position. I'm sure Hahn will pursue moves but hopefully will not have to sacrifice too much to get what he wants.Originally posted by voodoochile View PostComment
