Important news about José Abreu’s health

The Chicago White Sox is a team that believes they can make a deep playoff run. They have a lot of depth but the confidence comes from the fact that they have a lot of star players. Each of them has to be there to have a chance at this thing. The presence of Jose Abreu could be the most important of everyone.

Abreu did not travel with the team in Texas ahead of their series with the Houston Astros. He, according to the team, has a bit of the flu right now. They are now certain after several tests and protocols that the disease has nothing to do with COVID-19. A decision has yet to be made on his status for Game 1, but it looks better than before as he is now heading to Houston.

The White Sox need Jose Abreu. He has 117 RBIs this season and 30 home runs. He is as important to this team as any player. You know exactly what you’re going to get from this guy when times are tough. Knowing that he should be ready to play is a huge sigh of relief.

If for some reason Abreu can’t go, you can probably expect Gavin Sheets or Andrew Vaughn to take his place at first base. While these two guys have an extremely bright future, they are a big drop from Jose Abreu. Hopefully the whole team is ready and feeling good for the first game tomorrow.

The Chicago White Sox need Jose Abreu to lead the way in October.

The White Sox have also announced that Lance Lynn will start Game 1 of the series. They also announced that Lucas Giolito is the guy from the second game. We can assume that Dylan Cease is the guy from Game 3, but nothing has been confirmed yet. They are a very good team and have a good chance if they can be healthy for the next month.

With Abreu’s leadership on and off the field, you must think he is the key to this moving ship. With the things he does with his bat, it’s hard to argue. He’s also amazing defensively on first base which gives the team a major boost most of the time.

When Jose Abreu is accompanied by Luis Robert, Yoan Moncada, Yasmani Grandal, Eloy Jimenez and Tim Anderson all in the same formation, they have lost only once. Having them all there is so nice and we can only hope it stays that way.
