Nicky Lopez

Most had assumed that Senzel would see regular action at third base with the White Sox, but after starting his first game on Friday night, he finds himself on the pine for this one. Paul DeJong will slide over and cover the hot corner on Saturday while Nicky Lopez draws a start at shortstop and rookie Brooks Baldwin gets another start at second base.

The White Sox planned to revamp their infield Tuesday and followed through today after the rainout, shifting Lopez from second to short, Paul DeJong from short to third and Lenyn Sosa from third to second. Never in baseball history has the comparison phrase "rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic" been more apt, but it does put Sosa at his natural position, which is good. It certainly does nothing for DeJong's trade value and makes one wonder if he'll still have a role after Yoan Moncada comes off the injured list. Lopez is a trade candidate, too, but he seems more likely to stick around, even if he's pushed into more of a mentor role in the second half.
