Eloy Jiménez, White Sox slugger, expresses frustration over recent injury but remains determined to continue working hard

Chicago White Sox slugger Eloy Jiménez is facing another setback after straining his left hamstring during a game against the Toronto Blue Jays. The injury is expected to sideline him for four to six weeks, adding to a long list of injuries that have plagued his career.

Jiménez, who hit 31 homers and drove in 79 runs in 2019, has struggled to stay healthy and fulfill his potential due to various injuries. This latest setback comes as a blow to the White Sox, who were hoping for a strong performance from the 27-year-old outfielder.

Despite the frustration of yet another injury, Jiménez remains positive and determined to overcome this setback. He expressed his disappointment but also his determination to work hard and find a solution to his recurring injury woes.

In response to Jiménez’s injury, the White Sox activated rookie third baseman Bryan Ramos from the injured list. Ramos, one of the team’s top prospects, had been sidelined with a strained left quad but has shown promise in his limited playing time.

Manager Pedro Grifol emphasized the importance of managing Ramos’s workload to prevent further injuries and ensure his long-term availability. Meanwhile, outfielder Zack DeLoach was optioned to Triple-A Charlotte to make room for Ramos on the roster.

As Jiménez begins his recovery process, the White Sox will look to Ramos and other players to step up and fill the void left by the injured slugger. The team remains optimistic about their prospects for the season despite the challenges they face.
