If DMT didn't exist we would have to invent it. There has to be a weirdest thing. Once we have the concept weird, there has to be a weirdest thing. And DMT is simply it.

White Sox close to a 6-year guaranteed contract with Eloy Jimenez, so I guess if they complete it that means no service time shenanigans for him and he'll be the starting RFer on opening day.

Yeah, I love that teams are doing this. A win-win for both sides. It doesn't always work out for teams--Kingery and Singleton comes to mind, but the risk is worth the reward, especially for a guy like Eloy, who would be the consensus best bat in the minors if it wasn't for Vlad Jr.
Palka demoted after hitting 27 HRs last year as a rookie. Is he worth holding in an AL league where you need to use up a bench spot for a minor leaguer?
Palka, Palka, Palka? Palka, palka, palka... No? Twin Lakes Palka... Domavougi Palka A.K.A. Kiss me palka...palka twist?
Actually I don't know much about him. 27 years old, good power in the minors, poor OBA. Had a .430 slugging in minors in 2017. How many teams in your league ? Seems like he probably isn't worth holding unless it is pretty deep and/or he is super cheap in a keeper league where there is promise of a payoff down the road.

.027 average will tend to get you demoted.
In a 12 team AL Only he's definitely worth holding. 10 team, I wouldn't.
Carlos Rodon WTF? Gave up 8 er Friday and dropped me several spots in era & whip! He looked like he was on the verge of breakout before this.
Unlucky!
"I lingered round them, under that benign sky: watched the moths fluttering among the heath and harebells, listened to the soft wind breathing through the grass, and wondered how any one could ever imagine unquiet slumbers for the sleepers in that quiet earth."
Reynaldo Lopez, along with his 7.46 era before today, strikes out a career-high 14 batters over six innings with no earned runs! Maybe he switched uniforms with Rodon.
edit: After further review, i see that Lopez has had 3 good starts in a row. Most of the damage to his ratios came in his first 3 starts.

I was gonna say.... a few bad starts then a few good ones. Typical for young starters
