Alonso is not in the lineup for Friday's game against the Red Sox.

EDGE Analysis

Alonso will exit the lineup Friday in the midst of a 7-for-47 (.149 average) slump over his last 12 games. James McCann will serve as designated hitter while Jose Abreu takes his usual spot at first base.

Alonso went 1-for-9 with three RBI and one run between the White Sox's two games Wednesday against the Orioles.

EDGE Analysis

Alonso made his lone hit of the day count, driving in two on a walkoff single in the nightcap. The 32-year-old has collected six of his 16 RBI on the season in the White Sox's last four games but continues to hurt fantasy managers with his batting average, which sits at .183.

Alonso went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run in Monday's 5-3 win over the Orioles.

EDGE Analysis

Batting seventh in the order, Alonso has homered in two consecutive games and has five long balls through 25 games. Alonso's .190 batting average cost him a spot in the everyday lineup and a demotion from batting cleanup, but his .172 BABIP indicates he's experiencing bad luck and better days are ahead for the career .263 hitter.

Alonso went 1-for-3 with two walks and a solo home run in Friday's 12-11 win over the Tigers.

EDGE Analysis

Alonso has primarily batted cleanup but was dropped to seventh in the order Friday. His .185 average the likely root cause of his demotion. Nothing much has changed in his batted-ball numbers, so it looks like Alonso, who has a .175 BABIP, has run into bad luck.

Alonso is not starting Wednesday against the Orioles.

EDGE Analysis

Alonso sits for just the second time this season despite hitting .182. Welington Castillo will be the designated hitter in his absence.

Alonso went 4-for-4 with a solo home run and a double Tuesday against the Royals.

EDGE Analysis

Alonso had a pair of extra-base hits, highlighted by an eighth-inning home run. He now has three homers for the season, though it was good to see him contribute in other ways. Entering Tuesday's action he was hitting just .152 with two multi-hit games. More encouragingly, he has a 12:11 BB:K, a good sign that he will improve his performance at the plate as the season progresses.

Alonso went 2-for-4 with a two-run homer and three RBI in a 9-6 victory against the Yankees on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

The 32-year-old came into the night in an 1-for-18 slump over the last week. The good news is Alonso actually has more walks than strikeouts early this season, so his on-base percentage sits at a healthy .340. But his other stats aren't so flattering -- .162 batting average, two homers, eight RBI and five runs in 12 games.

Alonso is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Rays.

EDGE Analysis

Even with a lefty (Wade LeBlanc) on the hill for the Mariners in Sunday's series finale, Alonso found himself in the lineup and went 1-for-4 in the 12-5 loss. Manager Rick Renteria will go a different route with another southpaw in Blake Snell starting for the opposition Monday, as he'll stock the starting nine with an extra right-handed bat at designated hitter (Welington Castillo) rather than relying on Alonso again.

Alonso went 2-for-3 with a home run, three RBI and two walks Sunday against Kansas City

EDGE Analysis

Alonso clubbed a solo homer in the fourth inning, drove in a run the easy way in the sixth on a walk with the bases loaded and delivered an RBI single in the seventh. After going 0-for-6 through his team's first two games of opening weekend, Alonso looked far more comfortable at the dish in Sunday's series finale. He'll aim to carry this momentum into Chicago's upcoming two-game series against his former team, Cleveland.

Alonso went 1-for-2 with a two-run home run and a walk in Monday's game against the Giants.

EDGE Analysis

Although Alonso is hitting just .190 (8-for-42) in Cactus League play, he leads the White Sox with four homers. That's an indication that his HR totals, which spiked significantly the last two years, is here to stay.
