White Sox's Brooks Baldwin: Sitting out Thursday
Baldwin is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Twins.
The White Sox haven't committed to using Baldwin at any one position, but his status as a switch hitter and his ability to play all three outfield spots and three infield spots should allow him to hold down a near-everyday role. He'll hit the bench for the series finale, however, opening up a start for Michael Taylor in center field.

White Sox's Jacob Amaya: Getting afternoon off
Amaya is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Twins.
Amaya will give way to Bobby Dalbec at shortstop after previously starting in each of the previous five contests. Though he's a dependable defender, Amaya has been one of the majors' least-productive hitters this season, slashing .087/.120/.109 over 50 plate appearances.

White Sox's Joshua Palacios: Getting another look as leadoff man
Palacios will start in right field and bat leadoff in Thursday's game against the Twins.
Palacios will occupy the leadoff spot for the second game in a row and appears to have at least temporarily supplanted Nick Maton as the White Sox's preferred table setter versus right-handed pitching. The 29-year-old likely doesn't have much of a leash atop the batting over, however, as he enters Thursday's game with a meager .200/.310/.200 slash line across 29 plate appearances with the big club this season.

White Sox's Nick Maton: Sitting against righty again
Maton is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Twins.
The left-handed-hitting Maton finds himself on the bench for the second day in a row against a right-handed starting pitcher. After slashing just .167/.298/.313 with a 28.1 percent strikeout rate over 57 plate appearances to begin the season, Maton's time as a strong-side platoon player for the White Sox may well be over. Expect the White Sox to rotate a number of players at the designated-hitter spot rather than deploying Maton as their primary option.

White Sox's Bryse Wilson: Goes 2.2 innings in spot start
Wilson came away with the no-decision in the White Sox's 6-3 loss to the Twins on Wednesday. He allowed one run on five hits and three walks while striking out two in 2.2 innings.
Wilson made his first start of the season Wednesday with Martin Perez (elbow) going on the 60-day injured list Monday. Wilson wasn't able to make it out of the third inning, tossing 55 pitches (30 strikes) before being lifted for Brandon Eisert. Wilson started the season in the bullpen, but he could be used in the rotation unless the White Sox make a move to add a starter via the minor leagues or trade. Wilson is tentatively slated to start next week at home against the Brewers.

White Sox's Fraser Ellard: Starting rehab assignment Thursday
Ellard (hamstring) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Charlotte on Thursday, Scott Merkin of MLB.com reports.
Ellard landed on the 15-day injured list April 11 due to a right hamstring injury, and he's progressed enough in his recovery to embark on a rehab assignment with Charlotte. He logged a 5.40 ERA, 1.00 WHIP and 6:4 K:BB across five innings out of the White Sox's bullpen before landing on the IL.

White Sox's Michael Taylor: Losing out on playing time
Taylor is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Twins.
Since Andrew Benintendi returned from the 10-day injured list last Thursday, Taylor has faded into more of a part-time role in the Chicago outfield. He'll be on the bench Wednesday for the third time in the last four games.

White Sox's Jacob Amaya: Getting regular work at shortstop
Amaya will start at shortstop and bat ninth in Wednesday's game against the Twins.
Following Chase Meidroth's promotion to the big leagues on April 11, Amaya appeared to be at risk of falling into a part-time role, but Meidroth's move to the injured list just over a week later has since reopened a regular spot in the middle infield. The White Sox aren't yet comfortable deploying Brooks Baldwin at shortstop on an everyday basis, so the more defensively savvy Amaya could end up seeing the bulk of the starts at the position while Baldwin handles more of a utility role. Most of the value Amaya brings in the field has been negated by his ineptitude at the plate, however; among the 300 MLB hitters who have logged 40 plate appearances this season heading into Wednesday's action, the 26-year-old ranks 299th with a .234 OPS.

White Sox's Lenyn Sosa: Getting day off
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 Nick Maton: Sitting against righty
Maton is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Twins.
Maton has been a mainstay in the lineup against right-handed pitching for most of the season, but he'll hit the bench Wednesday even while the Twins send rightyDavid Festa to the hill. Since popping a pair of home runs in his first five games of the season, Maton has struggled to a .154/.267/.179 slash line over his ensuing 17 contests and has contributed just one extra-base hit. The White Sox could begin to phase him out of the lineup more frequently and instead rotate a number of players at the designated-hitter spot.

White Sox's Aldrin Batista: Shelved at High-A
High-A Winston-Salem placed Batista on its 7-day injured list April 9 due to an unspecified injury.
Batista likely sustained the injury or was pitching through it in his 2025 debut April 6, when he allowed two runs (one earned) on two hits and three walks over 3.2 innings. The 21-year-old struggled mightily with his control in the outing, spotting just 42 of his 77 pitches for strikes and throwing three wild pitches.

White Sox's Bryse Wilson: Handling starting role Wednesday
White Sox manager Will Venable confirmed that Wilson will start Wednesday's game against the Twins in Minnesota, Jack Ankony of SI.com reports.
After Venable previously suggested that Wilson was on track to serve as a bulk reliever Wednesday, the right-hander will instead begin the game on the mound as he steps into the rotation spot vacated by Martin Perez (elbow), who isn't expected back until late in the 2025 season. Though he's previously made 52 career starts in the majors, Wilson has operated exclusively as a reliever in 2025 and will likely have his workload monitored carefully Wednesday. Wilson, however, should be capable of providing more length than a typical opening pitcher, as he made a three-inning, 64-pitch appearance back on April 4. With a strong showing Wednesday, Wilson should have a chance at sticking around in the rotation on a more permanent basis while Perez faces a long-term absence.

White Sox's Davis Martin: Takes loss versus Twins
Martin (1-3) took the loss Tuesday against the Twins, allowing two runs (zero earned) on three hits and three walks while striking out three in five innings.
Martin allowed a season-low three hits, all singles. Fielding errors in the second and third innings helped the Twins push across two runs, but Martin was able to post his third start of the season of at least five innings and one earned run or fewer allowed. He has a 3.95 ERA, 1.43 WHIP and 16:9 K:BB in 27.1 innings thus far and will aim to get back in the win column this weekend against the Athletics.

White Sox's Korey Lee: Swelling going down
Manager Will Venable said Tuesday that the swelling in Lee's ankle is nearly entirely gone, MLB.com reports.
Lee has been on the injured list since April 10 due to a left ankle sprain. It's unclear what the next steps in his recovery will be, or how quickly he can return. Lee was already stuck in a backup role prior to Edgar Quero's promotion, so his spot on the big-league roster could be in jeopardy once healthy.

White Sox's Edgar Quero: Tallies three hits
Quero went 3-for-4 with a run scored Tuesday against the Twins.
Quero started for the fourth time in six games since his promotion to the majors and has most recently hit fourth and fifth in the lineup. He has earned that key role quickly, collecting seven hits across his first 19 at-bats. Quero also scored the first run of his career Tuesday.
