CHICAGO WHITE SOX NEWS

Leury García - Finding steady playing time Garcia will start in left field and bat seventh in Sunday's game against the Giants.

Impact Though he'll be filling in for a resting AJ Pollock in the outfield for the series finale, Garcia projects to see most of his playing time at the keystone moving forward. Garcia started in each of the White Sox's last four games, with the previous two of his assignments coming at second base. He went 4-for-15 with a double, two walks, two RBI and a run over that four-game stretch.

AJ Pollock - Resting Sunday Pollock is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Giants.

Impact Pollock will hit the bench for the day game after he started in left field in each of the White Sox's last three contests while going 3-for-11 with a walk. Leury Garcia will replace Pollock in the outfield.

Reese McGuire - Sitting again Sunday McGuire is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Giants.

Impact McGuire will take a seat for the second game in a row while Seby Zavala gets another turn behind the dish. The two backstops may end up splitting starting opportunities in relatively even fashion until Yasmani Grandal (back) comes off the injured list.

Jake Burger - Sitting again for Sunday's game Burger is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Giants.

Impact He hasn't logged an official at-bat since June 26 -- this marks his sixth straight absence from the starting lineup. Yoan Moncada's return from the injured list has made Burger an afterthought, even after the 26-year-old Burger posted an .887 OPS in the month of June.

Gavin Sheets - Drives in pair Sheets went 2-for-3 with two doubles and two RBI on Saturday against the Giants.

Impact Sheets has drawn nine consecutive starts since being recalled June 22 due to the absence of both Eloy Jimenez (hamstring) and Adam Engel (hamstring). He tallied his fourth multi-hit effort in that span, helping him maintain a .310 average while chipping in one home run, four RBI and three runs scored. Sheets will be at risk of losing playing time when Jimenez is able to return, though he has made the case to retain his spot on the roster.

Kendall Graveman - Notches another save Graveman saved Saturday's 5-3 win against the Giants, allowing one run on three hits in the ninth inning. He failed to record a strikeout.

Impact After tossing 12 pitches while closing out Friday's win, Graveman struggled Saturday but still delivered the save as he was spotted a three-run lead. The 31-year-old had thrown seven outings of one inning apiece without surrendering an earned run since Liam Hendriks (forearm) went down, though he's failed to register a strikeout in each of his last two appearances. With Hendriks scheduled to return Monday, this was probably Graveman's last game in the closer role.

Dylan Cease - Earns seventh win Cease (7-3) registered the win during Saturday's 5-3 victory over San Francisco, allowing one run on four hits and three walks with four strikeouts in five innings.

Impact Cease's lone run surrendered came on his second pitch as LaMonte Wade took him 424-feet deep to right center, but he proceeded to navigate five scoreless frames thereafter despite traffic on the bases in every inning. The 26-year-old induced a whopping 19 swinging strikes on 104 pitches, but tied his second lowest total of the season with only four strikeouts and still ranks second in the league with 125. On the other hand, the three free passes added to his league-leading total of 40 through 86 innings. Cease has allowed just two earned runs (and 10 more unearned runs) over 39.1 innings across his last seven starts and will look to keep things rolling against Detroit midweek.

Eloy Jiménez - Could return next week Manager Tony La Russa indicated Saturday that Jimenez (hamstring) could return next week, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

Impact General manager Chris Getz said Friday that Jimenez has been getting more comfortable with his legs during his rehab assignment at Triple-A Charlotte, and the 25-year-old appears to be closing in on a return in the coming days. La Russa said Saturday that the White Sox could ease Jimenez into action by giving him chances to serve as the designated hitter once he's ultimately activated. Over his eight games since resuming his rehab assignment, he's hit .167 with a homer, four runs and three RBI.

Josh Harrison - Remains out of lineup Harrison isn't starting Friday against the Giants.

Impact Harrison went 5-for-14 with a homer, four RBI, a walk and five strikeouts over his last four matchups, but he'll be on the bench for a second consecutive game. Leury Garcia is taking over at the keystone and batting eighth.

Leury García - Delivers game-winning hit Garcia went 2-for-4 with an RBI on Friday against the Giants.

Impact Garcia delivered his RBI single in the top of the ninth inning to account for the only run of the game. Despite the return of Yoan Moncada, Garcia has started each of the team's last three games. In that span, he's gone 4-for-11 with a double, an RBI and a run scored. However, Garcia has maintained just a .200/.226/.265 line across 196 plate appearances for the season.

Kendall Graveman - Closes out Friday's win Graveman pitched a perfect inning to earn the save in Friday's 1-0 win over the Giants.

Impact Graveman had no trouble in the ninth inning of this low-scoring contest, picking up his second save since Liam Hendriks (forearm) has been out. Graveman hasn't allowed an earned run in his last seven innings, though he's yielded three unearned runs. The 31-year-old has a 2.14 ERA, 1.28 WHIP and 34:12 K:BB across 33.2 innings. He's added four saves, 13 holds and four blown saves, and he should continue to be in the mix for closing duties as part of a committee situation in Hendriks' absence.

Lance Lynn - Bounces back Friday Lynn allowed three hits and two walks while striking out five over six scoreless innings in a no-decision versus the Giants.

Impact Lynn has had mixed results since making his season debut June 13, but Friday's start was an impressive one. The right-hander threw 63 of 104 pitches for strikes and matched Giants starter Alex Cobb the whole way. The White Sox ultimately won 1-0 after scoring in the ninth inning. Lynn has a 4.50 ERA, 1.27 WHIP and 22:5 K:BB through 22 innings in his four starts this year. He still has a 1-1 record, which he'll look to improve upon in a projected home start versus the Twins next week.
