I think it was good. Came up, obviously a young guy, didn't really know what to expect. Obviously struggled at the start. Being in a new clubhouse, being around guys who had show time, kind of everything, playing against better competition. I think just getting up here, getting my feet wet, it made the transition coming into this year super easy, just because I'm pretty comfortable.

Seiya (Suzuki) is gonna stay in rehab, and he'll play in Knoxville on Tuesday and Wednesday, then he'll rejoin us on Friday in Chicago.

In seven games before today, Alcantara had already logged six hits, including two doubles, three homers, and four walks, good for a 1.025 OPS.

Cade Horton will head back to Chicago this weekend to get some imaging done, and this 'will be an IL stint.' Early talk has some optimism....Horton said it started in his wrist, then got tight in forearm, so he wanted to be proactive and not push it.

In the end, though, all the White Sox got were Luisangel Acuña and a 12th-round overslot signee arm from last year's draft that registers as a fringy prospect at best. Not to denigrate Ronald Acuña Jr.'s younger brother too much, but Luisangel looks like an all-glove utility infielder based on his 200ish PAs of MLB exposure thus far, and a big chunk of his defensive value to date.

Gajan posted career highs in games played (33), wins (19), save percentage (.908), goals-against average (2.25) and shutouts (2) during his sophomore season.
