    • Sitting Sunday
      Robert is not in the starting lineup for Sunday's series finale against Detroit.

      Advice: White Sox manager Pedro Grifol said Sunday that it's a scheduled day off for Robert as the 26-year-old outfielder eases his way back from his IL stint due to a hip flexor strain, per Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times. Since returning from the injured list June 4, Robert is slashing .180/.275/.459 with five home runs and seven RBI over 61 at-bats. Tommy Pham will start in center field while Andrew Benintendi and Gavin Sheets man the corners against Tigers right-hander Reese Olson. Rotowire.com Today, 9:37 am
       
    • Luis Robert Jr. not in Sunday’s lineup vs. Tigers
      Luis Robert Jr. is not in the lineup for Sunday’s series finale against the division-rival Tigers.

      Advice: It appears to be a routine off day for Robert, who has made nine consecutive starts for Chicago dating back to June 13. The 26-year-old is batting .180 (11-for-61) with five homers and two steals in 17 games since returning earlier this month from a lengthy stint on the injured list. Rotoworld Today, 9:05 am
       
    • Laces pair of doubles Saturday
      Moore went 2-for-5 with an RBI double, another two-bagger and two runs in a win over the Marlins on Saturday.

      Advice: The Mariners gave Julio Rodriguez the night off, but Moore had no trouble helping make up for the slugger's absence by authoring one of four multi-hit efforts for Seattle. The pair of extra-base hits were right on brand for Moore, who's hit a double or better on 24 of his 42 knocks this season to put him just one XBH away from tying a career-best figure in that category.

    • Sitting vs. southpaw
      Abreu is not in the starting lineup for Sunday's series finale against Cincinnati.

      Advice: After being activated from the injured list Saturday, Abreu went back to his regular role in right field, going 1-for-3 with a double and a run scored in a 4-3 win. Against Reds left-hander Nick Lodolo, Abreu will begin Sunday's contest in the dugout while the righty-hitting Tyler O'Neill starts in right field and bats third. Rotowire.com Today, 8:07 am
       
    • Reinstated off IL, starting Sunday
      The White Sox reinstated Jimenez (hamstring) from the 10-day injured list Sunday.

      Advice: Jimenez will serve as the designated hitter and bat third for Sunday's series finale against the Tigers. Jimenez strained his left hamstring while scoring from second base against the Blue Jays on May 21, prompting his placement on the injured list one day later. In his rehab assignment, he went 8-for-18 with one double, one home run and five RBI in the rookie-level Arizona Complex League. Jimenez is slashing .231/.288/.381 with five home runs and 12 RBI over 146 plate appearances this season, though the 27-year-old was in the midst of a five-game hitting streak prior to his injury.

    • White Sox activate Eloy Jiménez for Sunday return
      White Sox activated OF Eloy Jiménez from the 10-day injured list.

      Advice: Jiménez returns to Chicago’s lineup for Sunday’s series finale against the Tigers following a nearly five-week absence recovering from a left hamstring strain.

    • Makes splash in Saturday's win
      Cruz went 1-for-3 with a walk, a solo home run and a second run scored in Saturday's 4-3 win over the Rays.

      Advice: He destroyed the first pitch he saw from Zach Eflin in the first inning, sending the 78.2 mph curveball out of the stadium to right field and straight into the Allegheny River. Per Adam Berry and Justice delos Santos of MLB.com, it's just the sixth time since PNC Park opened that a ball has been hit into the river on the fly. Despite his prodigious physical tools, Cruz is still having trouble producing consistently for the Pirates, but he has stepped things up this month. Through 16 games in June, the 25-year-old is slashing .250/.283/.464 with three homers, one steal, 11 runs and 11 RBI. Rotowire.com Today, 6:18 am

    • Collects second save
      Chapman gave up a run on a hit and a walk in the ninth inning Saturday to record his second save of the season in a 4-3 win over the Rays. He struck out one.

      Advice: David Bednar is dealing with some tightness in his side and was unavailable, leaving ninth-inning duties to his 36-year-old set-up man. Chapman walked the first batter he faced before surrendering an RBI double to Yandy Diaz, but the southpaw got Isaac Paredes to ground out to end the threat. Chapman has been scored upon only twice in his last 10 appearances, posting a 1.86 ERA, 1.24 WHIP and 13:7 K:BB through 9.2 innings over that stretch. Bednar's injury isn't considered serious, but Chapman should handle closing duties until he's ready to return. Rotowire.com Today, 6:10 am
