News: Santiago will likely return to the bullpen with John Danks (shoulder) coming off the disabled list Friday, the Arlington Heights Daily Herald reports. Impact: Originally, it looked like Dylan Axelrod would take the walk to the bullpen when Danks returned. However, Santiago has had a few more clunkers of starts, and the bullpen is short on left-handed arms. Santiago may still produce K's from the bullpen, and he will likely be the first arm back in the rotation should injury befall one of the starting five. On that note, Santiago owners may be wise to hold off on a decision until Chris Sale (shoulder) is officially cleared for his next start.(RotoWire, )

News: Santiago (1-3) was called upon to pitch Wednesday against the Red Sox on short rest in place of injured starter Chris Sale (shoulder). He gave up two runs on four hits while walking four and striking out a season-high nine over six innings. Impact: Santiago pitched fairly well considering he was going on just three days of rest. The deep counts and walks forced him to expend 107 pitches over just six innings. Santiago will likely return to the bullpen after the White Sox announced that Sale will make his next start and that John Danks (shoulder) will be activated from the disabled list.(RotoWire, )

News: Santiago will start Wednesday in place of the injured Chris Sale (shoulder), MLB.com's Scott Merkin reports. Impact: Santiago was not scheduled to start this week, but he will get the nod Wednesday on short rest with Sale being skipped in the rotation. Sale is expected to return to the mound next Tuesday, but if he is forced to miss any action beyond Wednesday, expect Santiago to take his spot in the rotation.(RotoWire, )

News: Santiago allowed three runs over 3.1 innings and did not factor in the decision Saturday against the Angels. Impact: He gave up four hits while walking four and striking out two. The walks were very costly for Santiago and were ultimately responsible for his early exit. It's been a struggle over his last two outings as he has allowed nine runs and five walks over nine innings. His record on the season remains at 1-2 to accompany a 2.78 ERA and 33 strikeouts.(RotoWire, )

News: Santiago will likely remain in the rotation after John Danks returns from the disabled list, the Chicago Sun-Times reports. Impact: The rotation squeeze will come down to Santiago and Dylan Axelrod, and it looks like the team prefers to keep Santiago in the starting five. Santiago has been excellent in his three starts since joining the rotation -- 20:5 K:BB, 2.00 ERA, .215 BAA -- but two of those starts have come against the Mets and Twins.(RotoWire, )
Mon. May 13, 2013
News: Santiago struck out six batters and gave up six runs (three earned) over 5.2 innings in Monday's 10-3 loss to the Twins. Impact: It wasn't a particularly good day for Santiago, who still has a 2.00 ERA in his three starts. Though he's given up three home runs in those three outings, he also owns an impressive 20:5 K:BB ratio during that span, which suggests that he can offer something as a starter. Santiago's next outing is scheduled for Saturday in Anaheim.(RotoWire, )

News: Santiago allowed two hits in five-plus innings filling in for Jake Peavy on Thursday night, and the Chicago White Sox beat Texas 3-1, handing the Rangers their first series loss of the season. Impact: Santiago (1-1, 2.29 ERA), whose first seven appearances this season were in relief, allowed just one hit through five innings, Adrian Beltre's home run in the second. The 25-year-old Santiago was supposed to replace Gavin Floyd on Friday night in Kansas City, where the forecast is for temperatures barely above freezing a day after the Royals were snowed out against Tampa Bay. Instead, Santiago replaced Peavy, sidelined by back spasms, on a 44-degree night in Texas.(STATS, 3:03pm)
