Returns to lineup Moncada went 2-for-5 with an RBI and a run scored in Tuesday's 5-4 loss to the Pirates.

Impact Moncada was given a two-day break, having sat out Sunday before Monday's off-day. He recently acknowledged a lack of energy as the result of a bout with COVID-19 earlier this summer, which could be a contributing factor to his slash of .243/.335/.397, down nearly 200 points in OPS from his breakout 2019 campaign.

Impact Moncada recently revealed that he "hasn't felt the same" since his battle with COVID-19 in July, saying he's still experiencing a "lack of energy, strength." The numbers certainly bear that out, and it would not be a surprise to see the White Sox sit him here or there down the stretch in an attempt to rejuvenate Moncada. Yolmer Sanchez starts at third base in his absence.

Hasn't felt same since having virus Moncada said that his body "hasn't felt the same" since having COVID-19 in mid-July, Scott Merkin of MLB.com reports.

Impact Moncada was able to produce a negative test ahead of opening day, but continues to feel the effects of contracting the virus, saying he feels a "lack of energy, strength." The third-baseman, who is also continuing to deal with leg soreness, is hitting .248/.338/.421 on the campaign. While those numbers are nothing to scoff at, it's worth noting that the post-virus effects could be part of the reason that he's seen a drop-off in production from last season.
