White Sox's Corey Julks: Swipes bag in loss
Julks went 1-for-4 with a stolen base in Saturday's 3-1 loss to the Cubs.
Julks remains in a reserve role, leading to little playing time. He's played in 16 games since the start of July, going 4-for-21 with two steals and one RBI in that span. The outfielder is slashing .231/.301/.364 with three home runs, five steals, eight RBI, 11 runs scored and seven doubles over 133 plate appearances. Julks is likely to see most of his playing time in right field versus left-handed pitchers, with Gavin Sheets or Dominic Fletcher handling the strong side of the platoon.

White Sox's Chris Flexen: Four walks in no-decision
Flexen allowed three hits and four walks while striking out one over four scoreless innings in a no-decision versus the Cubs on Saturday.
Flexen was generous, but the Cubs didn't strike until he was out of the game. The right-hander threw just 40 of 78 pitches for strikes while failing to complete five innings for the fourth time in his last five appearances. He's on a 17-start winless skid, and he's pitched to a 5.34 ERA, 1.50 WHIP and 84:50 K:BB over 118 innings over 25 appearances (23 starts) in 2024. Flexen's next outing is projected to be at Houston.

White Sox's Yoan Moncada: Running, not feeling 100 percent
Moncada (adductor) has been running since being pulled off his minor-league rehab assignment but is still "feeling something there" during his recovery process, Scott Merkin of MLB.com reports.
Moncada was returned from his rehab assignment July 22 due to "anticipated soreness" and it wasn't viewed as a setback in his recovery from a left adductor strain. However, the third baseman hasn't shown any significant signs of improvement and is still dealing with lingering soreness. The White Sox have already indicated they don't intend to rush Moncada back, and a timeline for return has yet to be established for the 29-year-old.

White Sox's Nicky Lopez: Not starting Saturday
Lopez isn't in the White Sox's lineup for Saturday's game versus the Cubs.
Lopez will get a breather Saturday after he went 3-for-5 with an RBI during a loss in Friday's series opener. While he rests, Brooks Baldwin will shift to shortstop while Lenyn Sosa and Miguel Vargas start at second and third base, respectively.

White Sox's Ky Bush: Drawing another start
Bush is scheduled to start Monday's game against the Yankees at Guaranteed Rate Field.
He'll make a second straight turn through the rotation after he was dealt a loss in his big-league debut against Oakland this past Monday, when he lasted four innings and struck out three while allowing three earned runs on two hits and five walks. The 6-foot-6 lefty had been plagued by control problems at his previous stops at Double-A Birmingham (14.5 percent walk rate) and Triple-A Charlotte (7.1 percent walk rate) prior to getting called up, so he'll likely need to display some improvement in that regard before he can be streamed or rostered with any confidence.

White Sox's Andrew Benintendi: Pops two more homers in loss
Benintendi went 2-for-4 with a walk and two solo home runs in Friday's 7-6 loss to the Cubs.
The veteran outfielder took Jameson Taillon deep in the fifth inning and Drew Smyly deep in the seventh, leading a rally from an early 7-0 deficit that fell just short. Benintendi has suddenly found his power stroke -- after managing only eight homers in his first 90 games this season, he's gone yard five times in his last five contests, batting .400 (8-for-20) over that hot streak with nine RBI.

White Sox's Garrett Crochet: Clobbered by Cubs
Crochet (6-9) took the loss Friday as the White Sox fell 7-6 to the Cubs, coughing up seven runs on nine hits -- including four home runs -- over 2.1 innings. He struck out five without walking a batter.
The southpaw did manage to generate 15 swinging strikes among his 67 pitches (45 total strikes), but Crochet got tattooed when he left the ball over the plate as he served up multiple homers for the first time since April 19. The White Sox are trying to limit his workload over the final months of a lost season, but Crochet seems to be fading regardless -- he hasn't worked more than four innings in any of his last six outings and has an 0-3 record, 6.98 ERA, 1.81 WHIP and 26:10 K:BB over 19.1 innings during that span to show for it. His fantasy value is questionable as long as the ChiSox continue with their current plan for him, as he has almost no chance at a win unless the team decides to try using an opener ahead of him, with a strong K/9 being his only real asset. Crochet lines up to make his next start on the road next weekend in Houston.

White Sox's Lenyn Sosa: Getting night off
Sosa is out of the lineup for Friday's game against the Cubs.
After making seven straight starts -- four at second base, two at third base and one at DH -- Sosa will take a seat for Friday's series opener. During that stretch, Sosa went 4-for-27 (.148) with one run and two RBI.

White Sox's Davis Martin: Six shutout innings
Martin came away with a no-decision Wednesday against the Athletics, allowing two hits and one walk while striking out four in six scoreless innings.
Martin cruised through six innings on just 82 pitches, even bringing a no-hitter into the fifth inning before an Abraham Toro single broke up the bid. Martin exited the game leading 2-0 and in line for the win, but Touki Toussaint promptly gave up three runs in the seventh, resulting in a no-decision for Martin. The 27-year-old Martin has taken over Erick Fedde's rotation spot since the trade deadline and will continue to make starts for the White Sox, especially with Drew Thorpe (flexor) out for the foreseeable future. Martin owns a 3.65 ERA, 1.46 WHIP and 12:7 K:BB across 12.1 innings (two starts) this season. His next start is scheduled to come next week against the Yankees.

White Sox's Dominic Fletcher: Sitting against righty again
Fletcher is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Athletics.
Fletcher appeared to be headed for a strong-side platoon role in the White Sox outfield after he was recalled from Triple-A Charlotte on July 29, but he now finds himself on the bench for the fourth game in a row and the second straight matchup with a right-handed pitcher. Rather than committing to Fletcher in a regular role alongside Luis Robert and Andrew Benintendi, the White Sox have given Gavin Sheets playing time in right field, while the White Sox have rotated a number of different players at designated hitter.

White Sox's Nick Senzel: Stuck in bench role
Senzel is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Athletics.
Senzel looked as though he might move into a more prominent role for the White Sox in the aftermath of last Tuesday's trade deadline, but he's started in only four of the ensuing eight games since the deadline. Though Paul DeJong is now out of the White Sox's infield mix, the club has prioritized Lenyn Sosa over Senzel for the open spot in the infield. Senzel hasn't helped his case for earning playing time by going 3-for-27 with seven strikeouts since signing with the White Sox over the All-Star break.

White Sox's Korey Lee: Resting for day game
Lee is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Athletics.
Lee logged all nine innings behind the plate in the White Sox's 5-1 win Tuesday night, so he'll be given a rest as the two teams wrap up their series Wednesday with a day game. Chuckie Robinson will handle catching duties for Chicago.

White Sox's Jonathan Cannon: Picks up second win
Cannon (2-5) earned the win over the Athletics on Tuesday, allowing one run on six hits and two walks while striking out five over six innings.
Cannon was finally able to pick up his first win since June 18, though he's allowed three runs or fewer in five of his eight starts since then. Tuesday was his sixth straight start going at least six innings and his five strikeouts were his most in a start since he had seven back on June 12. While the strikeout numbers aren't great, Cannon's ability to throw strikes and work deep into games has been huge for a White Sox rotation that hasn't been able to get much length outside of his starts. The 23-year-old rookie owns a 3.91 ERA, 1.28 WHIP and 51:20 K:BB in 76 innings and lines up to face the Yankees next week.
