Andrew Benintendi Lands On 10-Day Injured List
1 week agoThe Chicago White Sox placed outfielder Andrew Benintendi (groin) on the 10-day injured list (retroactive to April 7) on Wednesday and recalled outfielder Greg Jones from Triple-A Charlotte in a corresponding move. The White Sox also agreed to a minor-league deal with Travis Jankowski for additional outfield depth. The White Sox initially didn't believe Benintendi's left-groin strain was very serious, but the 30-year-old wasn't feeling as good as they thought he would, leading them to send him for more tests on Tuesday. It's a tough break for Benintendi, who had gotten off to a good start with a .290 average (9-for-31) with two home runs, six RBI and five runs scored in nine games played. Michael Taylor is starting in left field for the White Sox in Wednesday's game against the Cleveland Guardians, but Brooks Baldwin should also see playing time there with Benintendi on the shelf.
