White Sox's Corey Julks: Sent to minors
The White Sox optioned Julks to Triple-A Charlotte on Monday.
He'll give up his spot on the 28-man active roster to third baseman Yoan Moncada (adductor), who was reinstated from the 60-day injured list. Since being acquired from the Astros in mid-May and reporting to Chicago, Julks produced a .581 OPS with three home runs and five stolen bases over 189 plate appearances with the White Sox. He mostly served as a short-side platoon player in the White Sox outfield, but Julks should get the chance to play on an everyday basis at Charlotte.

White Sox's Corey Julks: Swipes bag in loss
Julks went 1-for-4 with a stolen base in Saturday's 3-1 loss to the Cubs.
Julks remains in a reserve role, leading to little playing time. He's played in 16 games since the start of July, going 4-for-21 with two steals and one RBI in that span. The outfielder is slashing .231/.301/.364 with three home runs, five steals, eight RBI, 11 runs scored and seven doubles over 133 plate appearances. Julks is likely to see most of his playing time in right field versus left-handed pitchers, with Gavin Sheets or Dominic Fletcher handling the strong side of the platoon.

White Sox's Corey Julks: Settling back into reserve role
Julks is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Astros.
Julks is on the bench after he started in each of the White Sox's last three games, with the latter two coming against left-handed pitchers. Though he's served as a near-everyday player for much of his time with the White Sox since getting called up from Triple-A Charlotte on May 17, Julks appears set to lose out on regularly playing time moving forward following the recent returns of Andrew Benintendi and Tommy Pham from the injured list.

White Sox's Corey Julks: Idle Thursday
Julks isn't in the White Sox's lineup for Thursday's game against Seattle.
Julks will take a seat Thursday after recording just one hit in 13 at-bats through the first three games of the series. His absence will allow Oscar Colas to start in right field and bat seventh.

White Sox's Corey Julks: Swipes third bag
Julks went 2-for-4 with a double and a stolen base Sunday against the Red Sox.
Julks has taken over as the White Sox's leadoff hitter across the last six games (five starts) and has gone 5-for-21 with a home run, a stolen base and two runs scored. He's been productive since joining the White Sox overall, maintaining a .366 wOBA and 139 wRC+ in 19 contests.

White Sox's Corey Julks: Idle Thursday
Julks isn't in the White Sox's lineup for Thursday's game against Boston.
Despite putting together an eight-game hitting streak, during which he's gone 11-for-33 with a homer and three RBI, Julks will sit down against Tanner Houck and the Red Sox on Thursday. Zach DeLoach will take over in left field while batting leadoff.

White Sox's Corey Julks: Clubs leadoff homer
Julks went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a walk in Wednesday's 7-6 loss to the Cubs.
Julks gave the White Sox a hot start, homering on Jameson Taillon's first pitch of the game. During his eight-game hitting streak, Julks has gone 11-for-33 (.333) with four extra-base hits and three RBI. It looks like the 28-year-old outfielder could get a look at leadoff while Tommy Pham (ankle) is out, as that's where Julks has batted in the last two games -- against lefty Shota Imanaga on Tuesday and the right-handed Taillon on Wednesday. Julks has a .315/.393/.519 slash line with two homers, six RBI, six runs scored and two stolen bases over 61 plate appearances.

White Sox's Corey Julks: Gets look as leadoff hitter
Julks went 1-for-5 with a double Tuesday against the Cubs.
Even with the return of Luis Robert, the White Sox's outfield remains shorthanded without Andrew Benintendi (Achilles) and Tommy Pham (ankle). As a result, Julks has started 10 consecutive games, during which he's gone 11-for-39 with three doubles, two RBI and three runs scored. Most notable Tuesday was that Julks took over as the team's leadoff hitter in the absence of Pham.

White Sox's Corey Julks: Capturing steady playing time
Julks will start in left field and bat cleanup in Sunday's game against the Orioles.
Julks will pick up his third consecutive start and looks like he'll have a path to a regular spot in the lineup while Eloy Jimenez (hamstring) is on the injured list. Since being acquired from the Astros on May 15 and getting recalled from Triple-A two days later, Julks has gone 6-for-18 with a home run, two doubles, five walks, five RBI and two runs in seven games with Chicago.

White Sox's Corey Julks: Productive start to time with Sox
Julks went 1-for-3 with two RBI, a walk and a stolen base Tuesday against the Blue Jays.
Julks was dealt to the White Sox on May 15 after being designated for assignment by the Astros and was recalled to the big-league club two days later. He's made three starts in five games since and gone 4-for-11 with a run scored, three RBI and two stolen bases. Julks could see a more consistent role moving forward if Eloy Jimenez (hamstring) is forced to miss time.

White Sox's Corey Julks: Homers in second game with new club
Julks went 2-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk Sunday against the Yankees.
Making his second start since being acquired from the Astros on May 15, Julks' solo homer in the second put the White Sox on the board and provided what turned out to be a short-lived lead for the Pale Hose. Julks later added a single, giving him three hits through two games in Chicago. Julks batted .245 with six homers and 15 steals over 323 plate appearances last season with the Astros and figures to see some action against lefties on the short side of a platoon, at least until Luis Robert (hip) returns to the lineup.

White Sox's Corey Julks: Recalled to majors
Julks was recalled from Triple-A Charlotte by the White Sox on Friday.
After being traded to the White Sox from the Astros on Wednesday, Julks will now be called up just two days later. The 28-year-old recorded two hits and one run in seven plate appearances across two games with Chicago's Triple-A affiliate in Charlotte after being traded, and he slashed .266/.358/.444 with five home runs with Triple-A Sugar Land prior to the deal.

White Sox's Corey Julks: Traded to White Sox
The White Sox acquired Julks from the Astros on Wednesday in exchange for right-hander Luis Rodriguez.
Julks had been designated for assignment by Houston but has now landed in a more favorable organization from a playing-time perspective. The 28-year-old will report to Triple-A Charlotte for now, but he should have a clearer bath to resurfacing in the majors in Chicago compared to Houston. Julks slashed .245/.297/.352 with six home runs and 15 stolen bases over 93 games with the Astros last season but has spent all of 2024 at Triple-A Sugar Land, batting .266/.358/.444 with five home runs.

Astros' Corey Julks: DFA'd by Houston
Julks was designated for assignment by the Astros on Friday, Julia Morales of AT&T SportsNet Southwest reports.
Julks missed out on the Astros' Opening Day roster and has now lost his place on the 40-man roster. The 28-year-old slashed .266/.358/.444 with five home runs and 15 RBI in 31 games with Sugar Land, and he could remain with the affiliate if he passes through waivers unclaimed.

Astros' Corey Julks: Sent down to minors
The Astros optioned Julks to Triple-A Sugar Land on Wednesday.
Julks spent the bulk of the 2023 season in the majors but came up short for an Opening Day roster spot this year. The 28-year-old will play corner outfield with Sugar Land and hope to get another shot with the big club sooner rather than later.

Astros' Corey Julks: May not begin season in majors
Julks may not make the Opening Day roster due to his lack of defensive value, Chandler Rome of The Athletic reports.
Julks has hit well this spring, maintaining a .308/.333/.577 line across 27 plate appearances while striking out twice. That gives him a strong case to crack the Opening Day roster, but the team has Mauricio Dubon as a bench player capable of playing the outfield. Grae Kessinger could ultimately get the nod instead, as he can play every infield position except catcher.

Astros' Corey Julks: Sent back to Triple-A
Houston optioned Julks to Triple-A Sugar Land on Tuesday.
This is the corresponding 26-man roster move for Michael Brantley (shoulder) as he returns from the 60-day injured list. Julks has batted just .245/.297/.352 through his first 323 major-league plate appearances in 2023.

Astros' Corey Julks: Back in big leagues
Julks was called up by the Astros on Saturday, Chandler Rome of The Athletic reports.
Julks will take the spot that had belonged to Grae Kessinger, who landed on the injured list due to health and safety protocols. Julks provided a bit of fantasy value as a 27-year-old rookie prior to his demotion in early August with his 15 steals, but his .245/.299/.353 slash line (81 wRC+) wasn't good enough to keep him in a regular role.
