Sosa is out of the lineup for the first game of Thursday's doubleheader versus the Cardinals.
Sosa had been scheduled to sit out Wednesday's game against right-hander Sonny Gray before the contest was postponed due to inclement weather. The two teams are making up the postponed game with a doubleheader Thursday, and Sosa will still find himself on the bench for the first contest of the day while St. Louis sends righty Erick Fedde to the bump. Sosa had been a near-everyday player for the White Sox prior to landing on the injured list June 4 with a hip flexor strain, and despite being activated earlier this week, he might have to settle for more of a part-time role in the Chicago infield.

Rotowire
Sosa (hip) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Charlotte on Friday, Scott Merkin of MLB.com reports.

White Sox's Lenyn Sosa: Lands on IL with hip injury
Rotowire
The White Sox placed Sosa on the 10-day injured list Wednesday due to a right hip flexor strain.
Sosa injured his hip during Monday's loss to the Tigers, per Kyle Williams of the Chicago Sun-Times. He expects to be activated when first eligible June 13, but the ultimate decision lies with the White Sox. For whatever length of time Sosa is sidelined, Tim Elko -- who was recalled from Triple-A Charlotte in a corresponding move -- could benefit from a near-everyday role with the White Sox.

White Sox's Lenyn Sosa: Not in Tuesday's lineup
Rotowire
Sosa is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Tigers.
Sosa started the previous 12 games and will take a seat Tuesday after batting .304 (14-for-46) with three doubles, a homer, six RBI and three runs during that stretch. Chase Meidroth will shift to the keystone while Vinny Capra receives a start at shortstop.
Sosa went 3-for-5 with an RBI, a run scored and a double Wednesday against the Mets.
Sosa appeared to be in jeopardy of losing playing time for a brief stretch in mid-May, but he's now started eight straight games -- seven of which have come at second base. Wednesday's performance was his fourth multi-hit performance in that span, and he's gone 11-for-31 with six RBI and three runs scored.

White Sox's Lenyn Sosa: Drives in three
Rotowire
Sosa went 2-for-4 with a double, a walk and three RBI in Saturday's 10-5 win over the Rangers.
Sosa hit a bases-clearing double in the sixth inning off Jacob Webb that boosted the lead to 8-4. The infielder has been hot at the plate as of late, batting .354 (17-for-48) with five doubles, two home runs and six RBI in his past 15 games. The 25-year-old's poor plate discipline (2.9 percent walk rate) has been a major factor holding him back from becoming a more productive everyday player, but it hasn't slowed him down during this stretch of great hitting.

White Sox's Lenyn Sosa: Losing out on playing time
Rotowire
Sosa is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Mariners.
Sosa finds himself on the bench for the White Sox's third straight matchup versus a right-handed starting pitcher (Luis Castillo) and looks to have moved into more a part-time role while Josh Rojas has settled in as the team's primary second baseman. The White Sox will have a regular spot in the lineup available for Sosa when the team faces left-handed pitching, but the lack of a consistent role against righties significantly limits his fantasy appeal.

Rotowire
Sosa went 1-for-2 with a walk and two RBI on Sunday against the Astros.
Sosa only has 10 RBI across 33 games this season, but five have come in his last 10 appearances. He's hitting a decent .256 for the campaign, but he has just a .086 ISO and also suffers from hitting in the bottom-third of the White Sox's order.

White Sox's Lenyn Sosa: Smacks solo homer
Rotowire
Sosa went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Thursday's 3-0 win over the Twins.

White Sox's Lenyn Sosa: Getting day off
Rotowire
Sosa is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Twins.
Thanks to Josh Rojas (toe) being on the shelf all season, Sosa has taken hold of a near-everyday role in the White Sox infield, starting in 20 of the team's first 23 games. Sosa will take a seat Wednesday for just the fourth time in 2025, and unless he's used off the bench, he'll put his season-long eight-game hit streak on hold.

White Sox's Lenyn Sosa: Bright spot for White Sox
Rotowire
Sosa went 2-for-4 with a double Wednesday against the Athletics.
Sosa's overall numbers aren't particularly impressive, but he quietly hit well during the White Sox's home stand. Across five starts, he's gone 6-for-19 with a pair of doubles, two RBI and two runs scored. Sosa can't be counted on for much power, but he should remain a regular so long as Josh Rojas (toe) is sidelined.

White Sox's Lenyn Sosa: Hitting bench Sunday
Rotowire
Sosa is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Tigers.
Sosa will head to the bench after he started at second base in the first two games of the series. The 25-year-old has cobbled together a .200/.200/.360 slash line through 25 plate appearances on the season, and he could be at risk of losing playing time with Brooks Baldwin likely to see more reps in the infield with outfielder Mike Tauchman (hamstring) returning from the injured list Sunday.
