MLB 2026 Buzz: Dodgers Place Star Catcher Will Smith On Injured List

Hagen Smith - Could start Saturday for Sox Manager Will Venable said Thursday that the team is considering promoting Smith to start Saturday's game against the Dodgers, Bruce Levine of 670TheScore.com reports.

Impact The White Sox don't currently have a probable pitcher listed for Saturday's contest, but Smith could get the nod after posting a 3.76 ERA and 1.32 WHIP while striking out 79 batters in 52.2 innings at Triple-A Charlotte. The 22-year-old southpaw has found consistent success on the mound throughout his minor-league career, though that consistency would certainly be put to the test while making his MLB debut against one of the league's most dynamic offenses. Venable noted there is also a chance the team keeps Smith in the minors for a while longer and relies on its bullpen to get through Saturday.

Colson Montgomery - Back in starting nine Thursday Montgomery (back) will start at third base and bat cleanup in Thursday's game against Atlanta.

Impact The 24-year-old infielder will step back into the starting nine after a tight back kept him from playing the past two days. Over his first six games of June, Montgomery has gone 3-for-23 (.130 average) with a home run, three runs and two RBI while striking out at a 44.4 percent clip.

Noah Schultz - Completes bullpen session Schultz (knee) threw a bullpen session Wednesday, James Fegan of SoxMachine.com reports.

Impact Manager Will Venable said that Schultz will throw at least one more bullpen session before the White Sox potentially plot out a rehab assignment for the rookie left-hander, who has been on the shelf since May 26 due to right knee patellar tendinitis. Prior to landing on the injured list, Schultz went 2-4 with a 5.82 ERA, 1.34 WHIP and 33:22 K:BB across 38.2 innings.

Everson Pereira - Activated from injured list The White Sox activated Pereira (pectoral) from the 10-day injured list Thursday.

Impact Pereira has been shelved since late April with a right pectoral strain but has been cleared to return after going 5-for-14 with a pair of home runs in four rehab games with Triple-A Charlotte. The right-handed-swinging Pereira should play a decent amount in the Chicago outfield, especially versus left-handed pitching.

Dylan Campbell - Shipped to White Sox The Phillies traded Campbell and Jose Colmenares to the White Sox on Thursday in exchange for Derek Hill and international bonus money, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Campbell has spent the entire season at Double-A Reading, slashing .216/.281/.412 with seven homers, 31 RBI, 27 runs and nine steals through 55 games. He'll presumably remain at Double-A to begin his tenure with the White Sox and would likely need to turn things around at the plate in order to push for a promotion to Triple-A Charlotte.
