On this date, the White Sox’ history stitches together milestones from 1900 pennant chases to 2020 dominance. Derrington’s 1956 bonus-year debut, Miñoso’s 1976 age‑defying hit, Ventura’s 1989 arrival, 2016’s inning‑by‑inning scoring, Giolito’s 2019 eight‑K outing (despite a loss), and Abreu’s 2020 seven‑RBIs onslaught all mark trends that echo into today’s fantasy landscape.

The Blue Jays host Baltimore for a three-game set with Toronto chasing its first AL East crown since 2015, having split with the Yankees and Red Sox but stumbling against the Orioles and Rays. Baltimore has surged to 50-41 since May 30 and owns a 1.14 ERA bullpen in September as it tries to derail Toronto’s march. Bo Bichette’s knee injury muddies Toronto’s lineup, forcing shuffle and depth as the Jays aim to extend their division lead while juggling a tough weekend slate.

Friday features Rogers against Bassitt, Saturday’s duel pairs Sugano with Scherzer, and Sunday’s TBD faces Bieber as Toronto looks to keep pace with its rivals. After the series, Toronto hits the road to Tampa Bay before visiting Kansas City, keeping the pressure on the rest of the division and leaving fantasy managers weighing lineup moves around injuries and bullpen usage.

Late-season FAAB targets span fresh rotation depth, hot hitters and saves chances. Connelly Early’s Boston debut hints at a longer stay, two-start week upside and high strikeout potential. Tyler Wells has returned strong, while Eduardo Rodríguez has stabilized in the second half, offering a controllable ratio floor. Jake Burger and Josh Bell provide power pops for the stretch, Kyle Teel has emerged at catcher, and Daylen Lile plus Harrison Bader boost multi‑category output. Prices range mainly from $1 to $10, with a few upside plays edging higher.
