Player Profile #189: Alex Rios | OF | CHW
The White Sox were a black hole for two players last season. One of those players was Alex Rios. You know who the other was. Rios finished 13th among all players in 2010, and even though some regression was expected he would certainly still be a good-very good option among fantasy outfielders. After the putrid stink that was the rotting carcass of Rios’ 2011 season we need a new...

Alex Rios, 2012 Fantasy Sleeper
Ugh. I hate Alex Rios. It hurts me soul, Lupe Fiasco, to write this post. Unfortch, I gotta point out Alex Rios because of his terrible 2011 has made him underrated. I’m just going to write the rest of this post and then pretend like it never happened if he disappoints again. You know, like Matthew Berry would. Last year, Rios put up a line of 64/13/44/.227/11. ...

Rios' grand slam in 10th fuels White Sox to win
Alex Rios belted a walk-off grand slam with one out in the 10th inning as the Chicago White Sox recorded a 7-3 win over the visiting Cleveland Indians on Saturday. Rios turned on the first pitch from Chris Perez (3-7) to end a frustrating day for Chicago on a positive note. The White Sox left the bases loaded four times - including in the eighth and ninth innings - and stranded 15...

Alex Rios a HUGE Reason White Sox Aren’t Winning the AL Central
The Chicago White Sox should be closer to the division lead than they currently are. One of the big reasons, Alex Rios. He is hitting .215 with 8 homers and 32 runs batted in. He has 23 walks and 54 strikeouts and 52 runs scored.
Sox manager Ozzie Guillen has moved him up and down the lineup throughout the year, nothing has sseemed to worked. He is hitting .280 with 0 homers and...

The Return of Alex Rios
A week ago, I speculated on whether or not Alex Rios could rebound from his season long slump. It might be too early to say for certain, but the last three games have been encouraging. Rios is currently batting above .500 in the last three games, with numerous extra base hits. A subtle change in Rios’s stance looks to be what has helped. If Rios can continue this streak...

A Tough (Few) Year(s) for Alex Rios
While the Tigers and the Indians sit atop the division, the AL Central is still a relatively open race. The White Sox and the Twins might sit 5 and 6.5 games out, respectively, but the failure of both the leaders to establish dominance has left questions open. All four of these teams have flaws that could certainly haunt them in the second half. That should open up opportunities...

Tale of Two Hitters: Alex Rios and Adam Dunn
For the past few months everyone has been saying that when Alex Rios and Adam Dunn get out of their slump the White Sox will start to win games. One of those players got the message, the other has yet to really do anything.
Alex Rios who is hitting a disappointing .224 this season with only an OBP of .275 has started to heat up recently. In the month of June, Rios is hitting .313...

Chicago White Sox: Alex Rios Back In The Lineup
The Chicago Cubs sit six games behind the AL Central leading Cleveland Indians and part of the reason may be the struggling bat of center fielder Alex Rios. The 30 year-old is batting .200 through the first 60 games of the season but having sat out the past three games, Rios was finally welcomed back into the lineup on Wednesday night. Both manager Ozzie Guillen and Rios believe...

Fantasy Beat: Alex Rios, Enigma by Craig Brown
After a miserable 2009 season that saw Alex Rios set personal worsts in several offensive categories, he seemed to have rebounded in 2010. His final line of .284/.334/.457 with a .275 TAv wasn’t anything outstanding, but it was a huge improvement from the previous season. And it provided reason to hope.
PECOTA led the hope brigade and projected 19 home runs, 26 steals and...

Alex Rios Player Projection No. 58
Key Stats: Alex Rios and Drew Stubbs were the only players in baseball that hit at least 20 home runs and stole 30 bases last season. It was the first time that Rios accomplished both of those feats in the same season and the second time he hit more than 20 home runs or stole more than 30 bases in any season.Skeptics Say: Rios is ranked 58th, but he's a tough guy to like. His...
