The statement, per Tom Musick of the Chicago Sun-Times, indicated general manager Rick Hahn will meet with the media before Monday's game to discuss the organization's final callup list.

Jimenez reportedly will not be recalled by the White Sox in September, Bob Nightengale of USA Today reports.

The Chicago White Sox will not be calling up top prospect Eloy Jimenez in September. That's been the expectation all along, even though MLB's No. 3 overall prospect has hit .341/.387/.583 with 22 long balls, 63 runs scored and 75 RBI in 105 games with Double-A Birmingham and Triple-A Charlotte. He'll surely be a starter for most of the 2019 for the rebuilding White Sox and should've already been stashed in most leagues this season.

Chicago White Sox outfield prospect Eloy Jimenez and his agents Nelson Montes De Oca and Paul Kinzer are unhappy that their client will not play in the major leagues in 2018. Jimenez is hitting .370 after 50 games with Triple-A Charlotte and recently said "I'm ready." "I don't see what boxes he needs to check to be called up … except for service time," Montes De Oca said. Starting pitcher Michael Kopech was recently brought up at 22 years old this year and Yoan Moncada was brought up at the same age last season, so the White Sox haven't paid much attention to the service-time clock. Kinzer said that they are considering filing a grievance against the White Sox if Jimenez isn't brought up soon. Chicago's recent silence on the matter suggests Jimenez will have to wait until next year to play for the Pale Hose. There's a strong case to be made that Jimenez should've been called up well before Kopech for the rebuilding White Sox, but it doesn't look likely that we'll see Jimenez in September. Keep him stashed in all dynasty/keeper leagues for 2019, though.

Chicago White Sox outfield prospect Eloy Jimenez is "really close" to being promoted to the major leagues, according to player development director Chris Getz. "He has done nothing but perform," Getz said. "This guy's been able to drive the ball to all fields. He's been able to set up pitchers. ... He's got a pretty good arm. We just want to make sure he's as ready as possible. We're getting really close." Since being promoted from Double-A to Triple-A in late June, Jimenez is hitting .376 with eight home runs, nine doubles and 18 RBI in 29 games. The White Sox offense could use a boost, and Jimenez would surely give that to them. Jimenez is the third-ranked prospect in all of baseball, so if he's not already owned in deep mixed leagues, pick him up and stash him now.

Jimenez remains one of the top offensive prospects in the game and was recently promoted to Triple-A. Between Double-A and Triple-A, Jimenez has hit .313 with 12 home runs and 46 RBI. Jimenez doesn't have much left to prove on the farm, but the rebuilding White Sox are in no rush to promote Jimenez. Jimenez may be able to force his way up to the big leagues before the season ends and would be worth owning in all formats.

Jimenez exited Sunday's minor-league action with an apparent leg injury.

Chicago White Sox outfield prospect Eloy Jimenez (leg) exited his game at Triple-A Charlotte Sunday with what is believed to be a leg injury. There is no news on the severity of the injury, but Jimenez was noticeably hurt running out what ended up as a fly-out and did left the game after that. Jimenez is hitting .293/.383/.463 in his first 19 games at Triple-A Charlotte and only has five strikeouts in that span. Jimenez can still make his MLB debut in 2018 if the injury is not serious. There should be updates on his status within the next few days.

Chicago White Sox outfield prospect Eloy Jimenez will not go from Double-A to the big leagues. General manager Rick Hahn said Monday that Jimenez will definitely play in Triple-A. Jimenez has clearly outplayed Double-A pitching and is hitting .321 with 10 home runs and 41 RBI. Jimenez should be promoted to Triple-A shortly and is likely to get some run in the big leagues before the season ends. He's a strong stash in redraft leagues and should be owned in all dynasty leagues as well.

Chicago White Sox top outfield prospect Eloy Jimenez hit a go-ahead grand slam home run in the 9th inning for the AA Birmingham Barons on Saturday. Jimenez, 21, has now hit nine home runs in 34 AA games this season. He's probably the best power-hitting bat in the minor leagues at this point. Look for the White Sox to push Jimenez up to AAA before the All-star break. He also will likely make his MLB debut this season, especially given the injuries and general lack of outfield depth for the White Sox at the MLB level. Once he makes the MLB, he should be owned right away, as his raw power and game power will definitely translate.

Chicago White Sox outfield prospect Eloy Jimenez could be ready for his big league debut in mid-July, according to the Daily Herald's Scot Gregor. Jimenez, 21, was traded to the White Sox by the Cubs in the Jose Quintana trade last summer. Jimenez is currently playing for the Birmingham Barons in the AA Southern League. He's been phenomenal. He is currently toting a .321/.357/.604 slash line, with seven home runs and nine doubles in 26 games. He is the best hitting prospect in the White Sox system and would make an intriguing stash in redraft leagues if he does get called up.

Jimenez appears to be on track for a promotion to Triple-A before the All-Star break, Adam Hoge of WGN Radio reports. "Traditionally you tend not to do too many promotions before the halfway mark," general manager Rick Hahn said. "Certainly the way Eloy has performed thus far, might require an adjustment here in the coming weeks."

Chicago White Sox outfield prospect Eloy Jimenez continues to tear the cover off the ball. Jimenez finished Tuesday's game 2-for-4 and hit his seventh home run of the season. Jimenez has been on a tear and is now hitting .333 on the season with seven home runs and 21 RBI in just 78 at-bats. Jimenez has clearly outhit Double-A and should be promoted to Triple-A soon. The White Sox are in a rebuild and have no reason to rush Jimenez to the big leagues and start his big league clock, but if he continues to hit the ball the way he has, they may have no choice. Jimenez should already be owned in dynasty leagues and is a strong stash in redraft leagues.
