Jimenez is considered day-to-day after undergoing an MRI on his left adductor, James Fegan of SoxMachine.com reports.

Jimenez was hurt while running out a groundball Sunday and did not play in Monday's contest. He has managed to avoid a long-term injury, though, and the White Sox will just play a man short for the time being rather than put Jimenez on the injured list. Gavin Sheets started at designated hitter in Jimenez's place Monday and should draw regular time there against righties.

Garver (back) is starting at designated hitter and batting fifth in Monday's game against the Guardians.

After starting in the season opener Thursday, Garver missed the next three games against the Red Sox due to back spasms. The 33-year old appears over the injury and will start at DH for Monday's game. With Garver returning, Mitch Haniger will move back to right field while Luke Raley returns to the bench.

Winker was removed from Monday's game against the Pirates with an apparent injury, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.

Winker didn't suffer an obvious injury but was replaced in left field by Eddie Rosario to begin the top of the second inning. He didn't take an at-bat or have a ball hit to him before being lifted. The Nationals should provide more clarity on Winker's situation soon.

Mets manager Carlos Mendoza said Monday that Martinez remains at extended spring training and will be reevaluated in 2-to-3 days to determine if he'll be assigned to a minor-league affiliate at that time, Laura Albanese of Newsday reports.

He was officially optioned to Triple-A Syracuse a week ago but has not reported there. Martinez is still trying to fine-tune his swing after not signing with the Mets until late in spring training. He will likely join the Mets around mid-April, although a definitive date has not been set yet. Martinez will be the Mets' everyday designated hitter when he does join the big club.

Ramirez is out of the lineup for Monday's game versus the Rangers.

Ramirez started all four games against the Blue Jays in the designated hitter spot, but he'll begin Monday's tilt on the bench. Yandy Diaz is receiving a day at DH while Austin Shenton handles first base.

White Sox manager Pedro Grifol said Monday that the team is "in a holding pattern" while awaiting the results of Jimenez's (adductor) MRI, James Fegan of SoxMachine.com reports.

Jimenez had to be removed from Sunday's game against the Tigers are injuring his left adductor while running out a grounder. Lenyn Sosa has joined the club in Chicago in case he needs to replace Jimenez on the active roster, but the latter is still be evaluated for a possible stint on the injured list. Fantasy managers should have a contingency plan in place for Jimenez.

Winker went 2-for-3 with a walk and a double in Sunday's loss to the Reds.

Facing the club he made his big-league debut with in 2017, Winker continues his hot start to the season but wasn't able to generate any production outside of his OBP. The 30-year-old has started all three games in left field for the Nationals so far while Eddie Rosario gets a look in center field, and Winker's 5-for-11 showing with a 2:3 BB:K should keep him in the lineup, even if he has only one run and one RBI to show for it so far.

Jimenez (adductor) is absent from the lineup for Monday's game against Atlanta.

Jimenez suffered a left adductor injury while running out a groundball in Sunday's 3-2 loss to Tigers and had to be removed. He had been set to undergo testing, but the results aren't yet known. For now, consider Jimenez day-to-day. Gavin Sheets will be the White Sox's designated hitter Monday.

Turner went 3-for-4 with a solo home run, a double and a walk, driving in four runs and scoring twice in Sunday's 9-2 win over Tampa Bay.

Turner had collected just one hit in the first three games of the season but tripled that figure Sunday. He drove in the first run of the game with an RBI single in the first, then added a two-RBI double in the third and a solo homer in the fifth. The 39-year-old offseason signing from Boston is the primary third baseman for the Blue Jays and can still bring it at the plate after hitting .276 with 23 homers and 96 RBI last season

Morel went 1-for-5 with a three-run home run in Sunday's 9-5 win over the Rangers.

Morel got the show started for the Cubs, clubbing a three-run homer off Texas starter Jon Gray in the top of the first inning, giving Chicago an early 3-0 lead. The 24-year-old has opened the season red-hot, going 5-for-14 with a homer, a triple, three RBI and three runs scored.
