• White Sox's Yoan Moncada: Activation imminent

  4H ago • By RotoWire

  Moncada (adductor) joined the White Sox on Sunday and is expected to be activated from the 60-day injured list Monday, Scott Merkin of MLB.com reports. The 29-year-old has been sidelined since April due to an adductor strain, but he's apparently ready to rejoin the active roster after a 12-game rehab assignment with Triple-A Charlotte. Moncada played in just 11 games prior to the injury, but he'll look to finish the season strong as he likely heads into free agency this offseason, since the White Sox are a strong bet to decline his $25 million club option for 2025.

• White Sox's Yoan Moncada: Needs more time on rehab assignment

  14D ago • By RotoWire

  Moncada (adductor) is expected to play in at least five more rehab games for Triple-A Charlotte before being activated from the 60-day injured list, Francys Romero of BeisbolFR.com reports. Moncada has been on the injured list since April while recovering from an adductor strain and a related setback that caused him to be pulled off a rehab assignment shortly after the All-Star break. Though he's reported no setbacks since kicking off a second rehab assignment this past Tuesday, Moncada has looked rusty in his first game action in a month and a half, going 2-for-10 with a double and two strikeouts. Based on Romero's report, the White Sox are leaning toward keeping Moncada at Charlotte throughout the week, so he shouldn't be expected to return from the 60-day injured list until the second week of September. Miguel Vargas and Lenyn Sosa will likely continue to share reps at third base until Moncada is back with the big club.

  Moncada (adductor) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Charlotte on Tuesday, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times reports. Moncada started his initial rehab assignment in early July but was pulled off after just five games due to general soreness. He's now ready to give it a go again, setting up a potential return from the 60-day injured list in early September if all goes well this time around. Moncada's last game with the White Sox before he suffered an adductor strain came back in early April.

  23D ago • By RotoWire

  Moncada (thigh) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Charlotte next week, James Fegan of SoxMachine.com reports. Moncada has been on the IL since early April due to an adductor strain. He started a rehab assignment in early July, and in his five outings before being shut back down July 22 due to general soreness, he went 8-for-15 with four runs scored and two RBI. How Moncada responds to his second rehab stint will indicate whether the White Sox will bring the 29-year-old third baseman back into the fold or hold him out until the 2025 season.

• White Sox's Yoan Moncada: Running, not feeling 100 percent

  08/10/2024 • By RotoWire

  Moncada (adductor) has been running since being pulled off his minor-league rehab assignment but is still "feeling something there" during his recovery process, Scott Merkin of MLB.com reports. Moncada was returned from his rehab assignment July 22 due to "anticipated soreness" and it wasn't viewed as a setback in his recovery from a left adductor strain. However, the third baseman hasn't shown any significant signs of improvement and is still dealing with lingering soreness. The White Sox have already indicated they don't intend to rush Moncada back, and a timeline for return has yet to be established for the 29-year-old.
