White Sox's Brooks Baldwin: Could resume hitting this week
Brooks Baldwin (wrist) could resume on-field hitting this week but is unsure he'll make it back before the end of the season, Scott Merkin of MLB.com reports.The right wrist sprain that sent Baldwin to the 10-day injured list earlier this month has improved, but he might run out of time before he's ready to return to the Chicago White Sox's active roster. The rookie infielder has slashed .211/.250/.316 in 33 games for Chicago this season.

White Sox's Brooks Baldwin: Lands on IL
The Chicago White Sox placed Brooks Baldwin on the 10-day injured list Wednesday with a right wrist sprain, LaMond Pope of the Chicago Tribune reports.A hand injury kept Baldwin sidelined for seven consecutive games before he entered Tuesday's game off the bench, though he'll now need to miss at least another 10 days after injuring his wrist. Lenyn Sosa will presumably continue to see regular starts while Baldwin is out, and Bryan Ramos will come up from Triple-A Charlotte to replenish Chicago's infield depth.

White Sox's Brooks Baldwin: Still sitting Wednesday
Brooks Baldwin (hand) is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Orioles, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.Baldwin hasn't been in the lineup since Aug. 27 due to a hand injury, though he did come off the bench to play second base in Tuesday's blowout loss, going 0-for-3 with a strikeout. That appearance indicates the 24-year-old is now healthy and that he's no longer the preferred option at second base. Nicky Lopez is starting at the keystone Wednesday, but Lenyn Sosa started there in three of the previous four games.

White Sox's Brooks Baldwin: Nursing hand injury
Brooks Baldwin is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Mets while tending to a right hand injury, Scott Merkin of MLB.com reports. "Probably take it slow," interim manager Grady Sizemore said in regard to Baldwin's recovery from the injury. "We are going to see how batting practice goes, and I think he's going to have probably just down at least [Sunday and Monday] and see how he's doing Tuesday."The injury helps explain why Baldwin will be on the bench Sunday for a fifth consecutive game after he had previously handled a near-everyday role in the Chicago White Sox middle infield following his call-up from Triple-A Charlotte on July 19. The White Sox should have steady playing time available in the infield for Nicky Lopez, Miguel Vargas and Lenyn Sosa while Baldwin is tending to the injury.
