Lawrence Butler - Day off MondayButler is absent from the lineup for Monday's game against the Cubs.
ImpactTough left-hander Shota Imanaga is on the hill for the Cubs, so the Athletics will use Monday's game as an opportunity to give the left-handed-batting Butler a breather. Daz Cameron will play right field and Jacob Wilson will be elevated to the leadoff spot for the series opener.

Yoán Moncada - Returns from 60-day ILThe White Sox activated Moncada (adductor) from the 60-day injured list Monday.
ImpactMoncada is finally ready to return to action after being sidelined since early April with an adductor strain. He hit .342/.413/.537 with one home run over 12 games after resuming a rehab assignment with Triple-A Charlotte late last month. Moncada should be the primary third baseman for the White Sox down the stretch.

Corey Julks - Sent to minorsThe White Sox optioned Julks to Triple-A Charlotte on Monday.
ImpactHe'll give up his spot on the 28-man active roster to third baseman Yoan Moncada (adductor), who was reinstated from the 60-day injured list. Since being acquired from the Astros in mid-May and reporting to Chicago, Julks produced a .581 OPS with three home runs and five stolen bases over 189 plate appearances with the White Sox. He mostly served as a short-side platoon player in the White Sox outfield, but Julks should get the chance to play on an everyday basis at Charlotte.

Ky Bush - Recalled, shelved with tricep injuryThe White Sox recalled Bush from Triple-A Charlotte on Saturday and placed him on the 15-day injured list with a left tricep strain, Scott Merkin of MLB.com reports.
ImpactChicago optioned Bush to Triple-A on Aug. 26, and despite making a one-inning start for Charlotte on Sept. 7, he'll revert to the big club's 15-day IL after suffering the injury in that outing. Given the timing of the injury, Bush is unlikely to be activated before the season ends Sept. 29. Bush made four starts for the White Sox prior to his demotion in late August, logging a 5.60 ERA and 2.04 WHIP while walking more batters (16) than he struck out (11) over 17.2 innings.
