Yoan Moncada: Free agent after option declined
The White Sox declined Yoan Moncada's $25 million club option for 2025, Francys Romero of BeisbolFR.com reports.The veteran infielder will be given a $5 million buyout. It was an obvious move, given where the White Sox' roster stands and the fact that Moncada was limited to just 12 games in 2024 and 92 games in 2023 due to injury. Moncada won't turn 30 until May, but durability concerns and inconsistent production could point to a bearish market this winter.

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