CHICAGO WHITE SOX 41-121 · 5TH IN AL CENTRAL
41-121 · 5TH IN AL CENTRAL
Right forearm strain sidelines White Sox closer Liam Hendriks The Sox reinstated Joe Kelly from the IL, optioned lefty Bennett Sousa to Charlotte and recalled righty Davis Martin.
Bennett Sousa - Sent to Triple-A The White Sox optioned Sousa to Triple-A Charlotte on Tuesday.
Impact With holds in both of his last two appearances, Sousa appeared to be gaining traction in the late innings for Chicago, but he'll end up being swapped out of the bullpen for Joe Kelly (hamstring), who returns from a stint on the 15-day injured list. Through his 25 appearances with the White Sox this season, Sousa has largely been unreliable, as he's turned in an 8.41 ERA and 1.72 WHIP across 20.1 innings.

Kendall Graveman - Potential Hendriks replacement Graveman could be in line for work in the ninth inning with Liam Hendriks (forearm strain) out indefinitely.
Impact The injury to Hendriks is one that could sideline him for weeks or months, so it's unclear how long the closer role will be up for grabs, but Graveman seems like the best bet to get save opportunities in the interim. He saved 10 games in 2021 and has two saves this year to go along with a 2.51 ERA, 1.33 WHIP and 27:10 K:BB in 28.2 innings.

Davis Martin - Brought back from Triple-A The White Sox recalled Martin from Triple-A Charlotte on Tuesday.
Impact Since Chicago placed Liam Hendriks (forearm) on the 15-day injured list in a corresponding move, Martin is eligible to rejoin the big club just two days after being optioned to Triple-A. The White Sox will need to break in a new starter for Wednesday's game in Detroit, and Martin could end up getting the nod if Vince Velasquez (groin) isn't activated from the 15-day injured list or is used out of the bullpen that day. Martin has started in two of his three appearances with the White Sox this season, logging a 4.11 ERA, 1.17 WHIP and 14:5 K:BB across 15.1 innings.

Joe Kelly - Activated Tuesday Kelly (hamstring) was activated from the 15-day injured list ahead of Tuesday's game against the Tigers.
Impact He probably wouldn't be the first option, but with Liam Hendriks (forearm strain) out indefinitely, there could be saves available in the Chicago bullpen. Kendall Graveman seems like the most likely option to get the first chance to fill in for Hendriks. Kelly had a rough start to the season but logged four scoreless appearances prior to landing on the shelf.

Liam Hendriks - Deactivated with forearm strain The White Sox placed Hendriks on the 15-day injured list Tuesday with a right forearm strain.
Impact Hendriks hadn't made an appearance since Friday before manager Tony La Russa revealed Monday that the closer was battling arm stiffness. The right-hander was scheduled to play catch Monday, but after he apparently didn't respond well to the workout, the White Sox sent him in for an MRI that confirmed the forearm strain. Given the nature of his injury, Hendriks seems likely to miss more than the minimum 15 days, but the White Sox have yet to provide a precise timeline for his recovery. Kendall Graveman is likely first in line to pick up saves while Hendriks is on the shelf.

Yoán Moncada - Reaches base multiple times Moncada went 1-for-4 with a run scored and a walk Monday against the Tigers.
Impact It wasn't a particularly notable line, but Moncada's performance marked only the fourth time he's reached base multiple times in a game this season. Though he's appeared in only 26 contests to this point, Moncada is still hitting just .137/.188/.211 on the campaign. Moncada has slowly started to lose playing time to Jake Burger, and he will come under even more pressure once Eloy Jimenez (hamstring) is able to return.

Reese McGuire - Scores twice McGuire went 1-for-4 with a double and two runs scored Monday against the Tigers.
Impact McGuire has the opportunity to serve as the top catcher for the White Sox after Yasmani Grandal (back) was placed on the injured list Monday. McGuire made a good first impression in the role, as he collected a leadoff double in the fifth inning and came around to score. He may be able to provide a decent batting average with the increased playing time, but McGuire has only six extra-base hits across 115 plate appearances on the season.

Leury García - Logs three hits in win Garcia went 3-for-5 with a double and a run scored in Monday's 9-5 win over the Tigers.
Impact This was Garcia's second three-hit effort in his last three games, marking the only two times he's achieved the feat this season. His ninth-inning double was also his first extra-base hit since May 21. The versatile 31-year-old has managed a meager .207/.219/.280 slash line with two home runs, 11 RBI, 18 runs scored, one stolen base and five doubles in 156 plate appearances, though his strong hitting of late has earned him a more regular role at second base over a struggling Josh Harrison.

José Abreu - Powers offense with two homers Abreu went 3-for-4 with a pair of home runs, four RBI and a walk in Monday's 9-5 win over the Tigers.
Impact Abreu bookended the scoring Monday with a two-run homer in each of the first and ninth innings. It was the first baseman's first multi-homer game this season, and with nine in 57 contests overall, he's lagging a bit behind his usual 30-homer pace. He's still posted a steady .260/.360/.442 slash line with 28 RBI, 31 runs scored and 12 doubles across 250 plate appearances. Abreu also owns career-best walk (12.4 percent) and strikeout (16 percent) rates.

Lance Lynn - Escapes with no-decision Monday Lynn (knee) allowed three runs on 10 hits and struck out four in 4.1 innings, taking a no-decision in Monday's 9-5 win over the Tigers.
Impact The Tigers got all three of their runs off Lynn in the first two innings, though he was only a little sharper in allowing three hits after that point. This was the veteran right-hander's season debut, so a little rust could be expected. He logged a 2.69 ERA, 1.07 WHIP and 176:45 K:BB across 157 innings last year, and he's only once posted a season ERA above 4.00 in his career, so there's reason to be optimistic about the 35-year-old going forward. He's projected to make his second start of 2022 at home versus the Blue Jays next week, as the White Sox are expected to roll with a six-man rotation for now.
