Sat, 02 Jul 2011 12:36:11 -0700 Chicago White Sox manager Ozzie Guillen will try to avoid using RP Sergio Santos Saturday, July 2. RPs Jesse Crain and Matt Thornton will be available to close.
Sat, 25 Jun 2011 20:55:59 -0700 Chicago White Sox manager Ozzie Guillen said Saturday, June 25, that RPs Jesse Crain and Matt Thornton were each unavailable after heavy workloads Friday, June 24, in a 14-inning game.
Sat, 11 Jun 2011 21:21:19 -0700 Chicago White Sox RP Jesse Crain allowed one walk with one strikeout in 1 1/3 scoreless and hitless innings Saturday, June 11, against the Oakland Athletics for his first save.

Wed, 01 Jun 2011 07:03:58 -0700 Chicago White Sox RP Jesse Crain (side) had a softball-sized mark above his left hip after he was drilled with a line drive Monday, May 30, but he is fine.
Sat, 28 May 2011 17:16:48 -0700 Chicago White Sox manager Ozzie Guillen said Saturday, May 28, that a six-man rotation would remain if he could depend on RP Tony Pena in late-inning setup situations. "Right now, we're a little confused," Guillen said. "We're very confused. The six-man rotation puts a lot of load on (RP Jesse Crain). "If Pena goes out there and does what he should do, I don't mind staying in a six-man rotation. We even talk about leaving it like that, but my worry is how much Crain will work. He's the only righty we have with (RP Sergio Santos). I use Santos as closer, there is a very big gap out there to cover."
Wed, 13 Apr 2011 15:44:55 -0700 Chicago White Sox RP Matt Thornton lost his second game of the season against the Oakland Athletics Wednesday, April 13, and does not have a save in four chances this year, according to The Associated Press. RP Chris Sale came on for the save chance in the ninth, but allowed three hits and three runs without recording an out. Thornton relieved Sale and RP Jesse Crain and gave up three hits and three runs while walking two and striking out one in one inning of work. He is now sporting a 7.71 ERA.
Wed, 13 Apr 2011 09:49:26 -0700 Chicago White Sox RP Matt Thornton will still see save chances in the team's bullpen, but manager Ozzie Guillen isn't saying that he will see the majority of the save opportunities anymore, according to ESPNChicago.com's Doug Padilla. "The closer situation: Whoever is going to be out there is the closer," Guillen said. "I don't want to come here every day and explain to you guys if (Thornton) is a guy I still believe in. Yes, I still believe in him. I still have a lot of faith. I think he can do the job. In the meanwhile it's my job to win games and I will put the guys in there who can do the job on that particular day." RPs Jesse Crain, Chris Sale and Sergio Santos will also see some save chances.
Tue, 12 Apr 2011 09:04:35 -0700 Chicago White Sox manager Ozzie Guillen may be running out of patience when it comes to using RP Matt Thornton in the ninth inning after he blew another save Monday, April 11, against the Oakland Athletics, according to ESPNChicago.com's Doug Padilla. "(Thornton) has to get going," Guillen said. "Right now, the balls don't bounce his way. Today, the two swings they put up were pretty good swings. The double and the line drive to first base and then the fly ball, they hit them pretty good." However, Guillen still didn't sound like he is ready to move away from Thornton as the closer. "He's going to be back out there," Guillen said. "Like I say, it looked like a rewind of the game a couple of days ago. We make a couple of mistakes and today, again, we don't help him." Guillen replaced Thornton with RP Jesse Crain Monday.
