Ronald Belisario, RP: It might make more sense to simply qualify the entire bullpen as on the decline, especially after its meltdown Sunday (15 runs in four innings), but Belisario has managed to stand out from the rest. White Sox lefties Jose Quintana, Chris Sale and John Danks have combined to go 25-14 with a 3.21 ERA this season in 61 combined starts (44 quality). Since June 23, when the solid stretch began, the White Sox have lowered their overall starters' ERA from 4.77 to 4.30. Starting pitching: White Sox starters own a 3.42 ERA over their past 36 starts, one of the best marks in the American League over that stretch. Blame a sore lower back that plagued him late in the month. Abreu's six home runs in July are just one more than he hit in May, when he spent two weeks on the disabled list. Abreu's power numbers seemed to have cooled of late, but he had a hit in all but one July game and batted. Jose Abreu: 1B: Going hitless in his past two games doesn't necessarily sound like somebody on the rise, but nobody dares to call Abreu a hitter on a slide after the monster July he produced. The White Sox moved starter Hector Santiago and minor league outfielder Brandon Jacobs to get Eaton and at this point they have zero buyer's remorse. A current 10-game hit streak and 20-game on-base streak is one thing, but Eaton has also helped to stabilize defense in center, a spot previously occupied by Alejandro De Aza and Alex Rios. Adam Eaton, CF: Four months into the season and the team's new leadoff man continues to impress.
