YOÁN MONCADA NEWS

Benefits from scoring change Moncada was awarded a hit, which was originally scored as an error, in Sunday's loss to the Royals, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

Impact The play was originally ruled an error on Kansas City second baseman Whit Merrifield and contributed to an 0-for-4 night, which snapped a 17-game hitting streak. The ruling change, plus Moncada's three-hit night Tuesday, updated the streak to 19 consecutive games, which was then snapped by an 0-for-3 on Wednesday.

Resting Sunday Moncada is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Cubs.

Impact Moncada will take a seat for the series finale after he went 2-for-4 in Saturday's 7-0 loss, extending his hitting streak to a season-high 14 games in the process. Jake Lamb will step in at third base for Moncada, who is slashing .258/.359/.360 with two home runs and a stolen base in August.

AUGUST 29, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Runs hit streak to 14 Moncada went 2-for-4 in Saturday's 7-0 loss to the Cubs.

Impact Moncada was the lone highlight for the White Sox, collecting two of the four hits the team mustered. He extended his hitting streak to 14 games and is 19-for-53 (.358) with an .895 OPS during that stretch.

AUGUST 29, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Resting Thursday Moncada will not start Thursday's game against Toronto.

Impact Per James Fegan of The Athletic, Moncada tweaked his wrist Wednesday but checked out fine, so his absence is simply a routine off day. Leury Garcia takes over at third base.

Finding groove at plate Moncada went 3-for-5 with a run scored Tuesday in the White Sox's 5-2 win over the Blue Jays.

Impact Moncada extended his hitting streak to 11 games with a base hit in his first at-bat of the night, then added two more singles to his ledger later in the contest. Though he's posted an impressive .935 OPS during the hitting streak and moved into the No. 2 spot in the lineup Tuesday, he likely won't typically slot that high in the order when Cesar Hernandez -- who sat out for rest -- is included in the lineup.

Belts 11th homer Moncada went 1-for-3 with a walk and a two-run home run in Friday's 7-5 extra-innings win over the Rays.

Impact He took Michael Wacha deep in the fifth inning to extend his hitting streak to seven games. Moncada's huge 2019 campaign is increasingly looking like an outlier, and the 26-year-old is batting only .255 with 11 homers, 51 RBI and 56 runs through 111 games this season. On the bright side, his .371 OBP would be a career high.

Resting Wednesday Moncada is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Twins.

Impact Moncada, Tim Anderson and Luis Robert will all receive breathers on getaway day so that the White Sox can all of their key regulars fresh for Thursday's highly anticipated "Field of Dreams" matchup with the Yankees in Dyersville, Iowa. Jake Lamb will pick up a rare start at third base in place of Moncada, who is slashing an underwhelming .200/.269/.411 with five home runs and one stolen base in 25 games since the All-Star break.

Slugs solo shot in rout Moncada went 2-for-5 with a solo home run and an additional run Monday in the White Sox's 11-1 win over the Twins.

Impact Moncada put the finishing touches on the White Sox's blowout victory, taking Charlie Barnes deep 433 feet to center field with one out in the top of the ninth inning. The home run was only the second in 18 games for Moncada, who hasn't made up for the lack of power production by running. He's attempted five steals all season while getting caught twice, as the top-to-bottom strength of the White Sox lineup has presumably had a hand in Moncada running the bases less aggressively.

Plates two runs Saturday Moncada went 1-for-4 with a double and two RBI in Saturday's win over the Cubs.
