News & NotesBoston Red Sox infielder Alex Bregman goes to the IL, and one of the most exciting prospects of the year is called up to replace him in Marcelo Mayer.Fantasy managers got to experience the much-anticipated return of Ronald Acuna Jr. from the injured list. Detroit Tigers utility man Matt Vierling came back from the IL too.Joining Mayer as call-ups this week were Chicago Cubs infielder Matt Shaw, who was recalled early in the week, and Washington Nationals outfielder Robert Hassell III. A handful of other prospects are hitting in the bigs this week as well.It seems like teams are more willing to option the veterans on their team that aren't meeting expectations this season. The Chicago White Sox demoted first baseman Andrew Vaughn and the Athletics sent down outfielder JJ Bleday. Is this a trend of MLB teams moving to younger bats quicker or is it just a couple of coincidentally under-producing vets? Hosts: Brett Ford | Scott ChuScott's Top 150 Hitters ListWhat are fantasy managers supposed to do with an underproducing star like Jackson Chourio? What about the other slumping stars? How long can your fantasy team hold onto those unproductive bats before cutting ties and starting fresh? Maybe there's a surprising bat still available on your waiver wire that managers are discounting due to lack of name brand. Is that you, Geraldo Perdomo?

News & NotesBoston Red Sox infielder Alex Bregman goes to the IL, and one of the most exciting prospects of the year is called up to replace him in Marcelo Mayer.Fantasy managers got to experience the much-anticipated return of Ronald Acuna Jr. from the injured list. Detroit Tigers utility man Matt Vierling came back from the IL too.Joining Mayer as call-ups this week were Chicago Cubs infielder Matt Shaw, who was recalled early in the week, and Washington Nationals outfielder Robert Hassell III. A handful of other prospects are hitting in the bigs this week as well.It seems like teams are more willing to option the veterans on their team that aren't meeting expectations this season. The Chicago White Sox demoted first baseman Andrew Vaughn and the Athletics sent down outfielder JJ Bleday. Is this a trend of MLB teams moving to younger bats quicker or is it just a couple of coincidentally under-producing vets?

The Chicago White Sox were 3 outs away from completing a sweep versus the Texas Rangers Sunday afternoon before the bullpen blew it. Miguel Vargas nearly keyed a victory with his 7th home run, also scoring the go-ahead run following his double in the 7th inning. The wheels fell off for Jordan Leasure in the 9th however, before the Sox ultimately lost to the Rangers. Later, has Colson Montgomery FINALLY gotten back on track for good in AAA? And what should we make of Andrew Vaughn being demoted to the Minors along with Tim Elko while Oscar Colas was released? Join Sean Anderson as he recaps a memorable weekend on the CHGO White Sox Podcast.
