Yoan Moncada Sitting From Sunday's Lineup

Chicago White Sox infielder Yoan Moncada (knee) is missing from Sunday's lineup against the Detroit Tigers. The 28-year-old was forced Saturday's game after re-aggravating his right knee injury during a swing. Moncada should be considered day-to-day with his next day to return coming on Monday for the series opener versus the Kansas City Royals. The switch-hitter has hit well over the last month, batting .348 (32-for-92) with five home runs, eight doubles, and 18 RBI since Aug. 9. Lenyn Sosa will hit ninth and defend the hot corner on Sunday.

Yoan Moncada Dealing With Sore Right Knee

Chicago White Sox third baseman Yoan Moncada (knee) aggravated his right knee injury on a swing during Saturday's loss to the Detroit Tigers. He went 0-for-4 with two strikeouts during Saturday's 3-1 loss to Detroit. The 28-year-old was seen icing his knee in postgame. It's unclear when Moncada initially hurt his knee and is considered day-to-day. Moncada is slashing .260/.304/.412 with eight home runs, 34 RBI, 28 runs, and one stolen base over 77 games in 2023. Fantasy managers will have to check back on Sunday to see if Moncada is active for the series finale versus the Tigers before inserting him into their lineups.

Yoan Moncada Cranks A Three-Run Homer Saturday

Chicago White Sox infielder Yoan Moncada went 2-for-4 with a three-run homer and a walk as his team beat the Oakland A's 6-2 Saturday. Moncada's home run was a 409-foot blast and he now has five home runs this season. Battling injuries, he's only played in 66 games posting a slash line of .233/.277/.363 while driving in 26 runs in 240 trips to the plate. Since coming off the injured list a month ago, the 28-year-old has launched two dingers.

White Sox Activate Yoan Moncada From Injured List

The Chicago White Sox activated third baseman Yoan Moncada (back) from the 10-day injured list on Tuesday and optioned catcher Carlos Perez to Triple-A Charlotte in a corresponding move. The team also outrighted right-hander Bryan Shaw to Charlotte. Moncada immediately returned to third base and was hitting fifth in the batting order on Tuesday against Chicago Cubs right-hander Kyle Hendricks. The 28-year-old is back after missing six weeks with a back injury. It's hard for fantasy managers to get very excited about Moncada, as he's in the midst of another disappointing season thanks to two separate lengthy trips to the IL. In just 38 games, he's slashing .232/.279/.370 with three homers, eight doubles, a triple, 13 RBI and 17 runs scored in 147 plate appearances. Moncada's return is likely bad news for Jake Burger, although Burger shifted over to second base on Tuesday.

Yoan Moncada Starts Rehab Assignment

Chicago White Sox third baseman Yoan Moncada (back) started his minor-league rehab assignment on Friday with Triple-A Charlotte. Moncada hasn't played much this year due to injuries and was last seen on a major-league field on June 13, so expect him to have a rather lengthy rehab assignment before returning to the White Sox. The 28-year-old Cuban switch-hitter also wasn't thriving at the plate before his injury, slashing .232/.279/.370 with three home runs, eight doubles, a triple, 13 RBI and 17 runs scored in 147 plate appearances over 38 games. Jake Burger, who has mostly benefitted from playing time at third with Moncada sidelined, has 19 long balls, but he's also hitting .220 (53-for-241) with 88 K's in 263 plate appearances.

Yoan Moncada To Begin Rehab Assignment After All-Star Break

Chicago White Sox third baseman Yoan Moncada (back) is expected to begin a minor league rehab assignment after the All-Star break. The switch-hitter has been sidelined since mid-June due to inflammation in his lower back. It sounds like Moncada has been slowly working his way back, but appears ready to get back into game action. He was slashing .232/.279/.370 with three homers, 13 RBI before landing on the injured list. The hope is that he'll be able to return in late-July.

Yoan Moncada Improving, Not Ready To Swing

Chicago White Sox third baseman Yoan Moncada (back) is doing running and fielding work, but isn't quite ready to take swings, per manager Pedro Grifol. The 28-year-old was put on the injured list with lower-back pain on June 15 for the second time this season, so it's been a lingering concern. Moncada is hitting just .232 with a .649 OPS, three home runs, 13 RBI, and one stolen base over 138 at-bats this season. With the switch-hitter expected out through July, Moncada does not portray a very strong redraft-league fantasy stash in shallow formats.
