Paredes went 3-for-4 with two RBI in Monday's 9-2 win over the Athletics.

For the second time in his last four games, Paredes recorded three hits. The infielder is batting a robust .483 over his last eight contests, and it looks like he's settling in with the Cubs after struggling initially following the trade that brought him to Chicago in July. Paredes has become a key cog in his new team's offensive attack lately.

Jung is not in the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Royals.

Jung will be out of the starting lineup for the third time in four games, and Zach McKinstry will get the start at third base Monday. Jung has gone 5-for-23 with a .640 OPS since the beginning of September.

The White Sox activated Moncada (adductor) from the 60-day injured list Monday.

Moncada is finally ready to return to action after being sidelined since early April with an adductor strain. He hit .342/.413/.537 with one home run over 12 games after resuming a rehab assignment with Triple-A Charlotte late last month. However, Moncada is not in Monday's lineup against the Angels, and manager Grady Sizemore stated before Monday's game that he doesn't have a concrete plan to get Moncada back into the starting nine, per Kyle Glaser of the Associated Press. Sizemore added that the club would actually like to see more of Bryan Ramos and Miguel Vargas at third base over the final two weeks of the season, likely to help make decisions about the future.

Hernandez will start at second base and bat ninth in Monday's game against Atlanta, David O'Brien of The Athletic reports.

Hernandez will occupy second base for the second time in three games, with both of his starts coming against left-handed pitchers. He appears to have emerged as the preferred platoon partner at the keystone for the left-handed-hitting Gavin Lux.

DeJong is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Tigers.

DeJong looks to have lost hold of a regular spot in the Kansas City infield, as he'll hit the bench against a right-handed starting pitcher (Reese Olson) for the fourth time in the last five games. Adam Frazier will enter the lineup at third base in place of DeJong, who is getting on base at a .154 clip with a 30.8 percent strikeout rate since the start of September.

Hayes (back) is set to resume light baseball activity, MLB.com reports.

Hayes has been sidelined since Aug. 19 and has been working to strengthen his core for a potential return. He is expected to start playing catch soon, though his return this season appears to be in jeopardy. The team has not officially decided whether Hayes will play again in 2024.

Urias drew his first start since Sept. 4 in Sunday's win over the Rangers and went 0-for-3 with a hit-by-pitch and a run.

Urias was making his first appearance of any kind since that game, one in which he'd rapped out three extra-base hits and knocked in four runs. Despite that stellar performance, Urias had not been able to crack the starting nine again with Josh Rojas healthy and getting regular run at the hot corner. Urias limped to a .152 average and .580 OPS across his first 35 games at the big-league level this season before being demoted to Triple-A Tacoma, but he'd earned a call back up by posting a strong .260 average and .789 OPS across 78 games with the Rainiers.

Ramos went 2-for-3 with a solo homer, a double and a walk in Sunday's win over Oakland.

Ramos' solo shot in the sixth inning proved to be the game-deciding run. It was his second career home run and both have come in his last six appearances. The rookie third baseman is slashing .209/.250/.343 with five extra-base hits through 22 games.

Muncy went 2-for-5 with a solo home run in Sunday's win over Atlanta.

Muncy blasted a solo home run off John Brebbia in the top of the ninth for the Dodgers' third home run and seventh run of the inning. Muncy now has six homers in 80 plate appearances since returning from a strained oblique in August with four of those home runs coming over the last seven games. He's now up to 15 on the year and has knocked in 40 runs while scoring 39 times in 62 games.

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.
