Wed Jun 1 202216:13Yoan Moncada Remains Out For Wednesday's Game
Chicago White Sox third baseman Yoan Moncada (quadriceps) is not in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against left-hander Hyun Jin Ryu and the Toronto Blue Jays. Jake Burger will be making his fifth consecutive start at the hot corner for the game. Moncada is dealing with a left quadriceps injury. He has been held out of the starting lineup since last Wednesday, though he did make an appearance as a pinch-hitter this past Sunday. Injuries have held the 27-year-old to just 15 games so far this year. He's slashing .133/.175/.250 with two home runs, four RBI and four runs.

Tue May 31 202215:28Yoan Moncada Still Absent Tuesday
Chicago White Sox third baseman Yoan Moncada (quadriceps) remains out of the starting lineup on Tuesday against the Toronto Blue Jays. Moncada served as a pinch-hitter in Sunday's game against the Chicago Cubs, but he hasn't started a game since last Wednesday with a left quadriceps injury. An injured list stint remains a possibility for the 27-year-old, who is hitting just .133/.175/.250 with two home runs, four RBI and four runs scored on the season in 15 games. Jake Burger is starting at third again and is hitting cleanup on Tuesday against Blue Jays right-hander Kevin Gausman. Burger is 5-for-17 (.294) with two home runs and six RBI in the last seven days and is worthy of DFS consideration in the cleanup spot.

Sun May 29 202211:43Yoan Moncada Out Again Sunday
Chicago White Sox third baseman Yoan Moncada (quadriceps) is not in the starting lineup on Sunday against the Chicago Cubs. Moncada will miss his third straight game while dealing with quadriceps soreness. Fantasy managers need to leave him on their benches. The 27-year-old's injury isn't believed to be very serious, so hopefully he'll get back into Chicago's lineup early next week. It's been a tough season so far for Moncada, as he's played in just 14 games and is slashing .136/.177/.254 with two home runs and four RBI. Jake Burger is back at third base and is batting third on Sunday against Cubs right-hander Marcus Stroman. Burger is hitting .253/.292/.422 with four home runs and 12 RBI on the season in 25 games played.

Chicago White Sox third baseman Yoan Moncada will be leading off in Game 1 of the team's doubleheader against the New York Yankees on Sunday. However, he will be held out in the second game of the two-game set. Moncada suffered a leg injury this past Thursday and the injury caused him to be scratched from Saturday's lineup. However, he did wind up making an appearance as a pinch-hitter in Saturday's game, going 0-for-1 with a strikeout. The 26-year-old has appeared in 10 games so far this year and he's slashing .195/.250/.341 with two home runs, four RBI and four runs.

Sat May 21 202212:06Yoan Moncada Scratched With Leg Injury Saturday
Chicago White Sox third baseman Yoan Moncada (leg) is a late scratch from the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the New York Yankees. Josh Harrison will now be covering third base in the game. Moncada felt discomfort in his leg during this past Thursday's game and the injury is still nagging him. However, manager Tony La Russa stated that Moncada will be available off the bench for Saturday's game. The 26-year-old has only appeared in nine games so far this year, but he's already launched a pair of home runs while slashing .200/.256/.350. It sounds as if there's a good chance he'll be back in the starting lineup for at least one of the games in the team's doubleheader on Sunday.

Thu May 19 202221:24Yoan Moncada Dealing With Minor Leg Issue
Chicago White Sox third baseman Yoan Moncada (leg) felt discomfort in his leg during Thursday's game against the Kansas City Royals. He didn't leave the game early and went 1-for-5 with two strikeouts. According to manager Tony La Russa, Moncada seemed to be moving around without issue postgame. The 26-year-old should be fine heading into the weekend series against the New York Yankees. He is slashing .200/.256/.350 with two home runs, four RBI, and four runs across nine games in 2022. Fantasy managers should check back on Friday to ensure Moncada is in the lineup before starting him.

Sun May 15 202214:03Yoan Moncada To Rest On Sunday
Chicago White Sox third baseman Yoan Moncada (rest) is not in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the New York Yankees. This appears to be a routine day off for Moncada. The 26-year-old is 6-for-21 with a pair of homers since returning from the injured list. Josh Harrison will cover the hot corner and bat ninth versus lefty Nestor Cortes Jr. on Sunday. Fantasy managers should be able to find a better streaming option than Harrison.

Wed May 11 202212:19Yoan Moncada Not Playing Against Guardians
Chicago White Sox third baseman Yoan Moncada is not in the starting lineup on Wednesday against the Cleveland Guardians. Moncada recently returned from an oblique injury that landed him on the injured list, and he's gone 2-for-8 with a walk and a run scored in his two games since returning. Josh Harrison will get the start at the hot corner for the series finale and is hitting ninth against Guardians right-hander Aaron Civale. Harrison doesn't have much fantasy upside as a low-cost DFS streamer anymore, especially while hitting at the bottom of Chicago's batting order. He has just nine hits in his first 57 at-bats this year, with no home runs and two RBI in 19 games.

Mon May 9 202213:47Yoan Moncada, Joe Kelly Activated From Injured List
Chicago White Sox third baseman Yoan Moncada (oblique) and relief pitcher Joe Kelly (biceps) were activated from the injured list on Monday. Infielder Jake Burger was optioned to Triple-A Charlotte to make room for Moncada, while relief pitcher Aaron Bummer (knee) was placed on the injured list to make room for Kelly on the major league roster. Manager Tony La Russa said that Moncada would return to the two-hole in the lineup on Monday against Cleveland Guardians right-hander Zach Plesac. Moncada hit .318 with two home runs and a double on his six-game rehab assignment with Charlotte, and fantasy managers should be looking to get him back into their lineups. Kelly will be making his debut with the White Sox and is expected to be an important late-inning setup man in front of closer Liam Hendriks.

Sun May 8 202217:08Yoan Moncada To Return To Team Monday
Chicago White Sox manager Tony LaRussa reiterated Sunday that third baseman Yoan Moncada (oblique) should return to the team from the 10-day injured list on Monday and bat second in the lineup, per MLB.com's Scott Merkin. The 26-year-old has been sidelined for the first month of the 2022 season due to a strained right oblique. Moncada slashed .263/.375/.412 with 14 home runs, 61 RBI, 74 runs, and three stolen bases over 144 games in 2021, so he should be a useful fantasy option at a relatively shallow position once he returns.

Wed May 4 202221:50Yoan Moncada Expected To Return Monday
Chicago White Sox third baseman Yoan Moncada (oblique) is expected to be activated from the 10-day injured list on Monday. He's been sidelined for the first month of the season due to a strained right oblique. This week, the 26-year-old will complete a rehab assignment with Triple-A Charlotte and return to the majors on Monday. Once activated, he is expected to reclaim his role as the team's everyday third baseman. Moncada slashed .263/.375/.412 with 14 home runs, 61 RBI, 74 runs, and three stolen bases over 144 games in 2021.

Sat Apr 30 202212:31Yoan Moncada Beginning Rehab Assignment
Chicago White Sox third baseman Yoan Moncada (oblique) will begin a minor league rehab assignment on Saturday. This is good news since Moncada has been sidelined since early April due to a strained right oblique. The 26-year-old should be able to return to the big league roster in early May. He'll likely need a few minor league at-bats to get his groove back. In the meantime, Jake Burger is expected to continue seeing playing time at the hot corner.

Wed Apr 27 202212:21Yoan Moncada To Begin Rehab Assignment Friday
Chicago White Sox third baseman Yoan Moncada (oblique) will begin his minor league rehab assignment on Friday with Triple-A Charlotte. Moncada is experiencing some pain while swinging left-handed, but he's been cleared to resume playing in games in the minors. The 26-year-old has been battling a right oblique strain for almost a month, and the White Sox will make sure not to rush him back for his regular season debut. If everything goes well on his rehab assignment, Moncada could make his first start for the White Sox this year at some point next week. Jake Burger has primarily been starting at the hot corner in Chicago with Moncada sidelined. Moncada hit .263/.375/.412 with 14 home runs, 61 RBI and 74 runs scored in 616 plate appearances over 144 games in 2021. He should be stashed in all fantasy formats with his return around the corner.

Tue Apr 26 202216:02Yoan Moncada Could Begin Rehab Assignment This Weekend
Chicago White Sox third baseman Yoan Moncada (oblique) could begin a rehab assignment at Triple-A this coming weekend, according to White Sox reporter James Fegan. The 26-year-old has yet to make his 2022 debut as he's been sidelined with a Grade 1 oblique strain. We still don't have a clear timeline for his return, but if he winds up starting a rehab assignment at Triple-A this weekend, then we could potentially see him in the majors not long after that. Last year, Moncada slashed .263/.375/.412 with 14 home runs, 61 RBI and 74 runs over 144 games.

Sat Apr 16 202212:41No Timetable Yet For Yoan Moncada’s Return
Chicago White Sox third baseman Yoan Moncada (oblique) was given no timetable for a return from manager Tony La Russa ahead of Saturday's game versus Tampa Bay. The 26-year-old was diagnosed with a Grade 1 oblique strain ahead of Opening Day last week and the original timeline was three weeks, but La Russa stated that he's still feeling "discomfort on moves needed for defense." The team can afford to take it slow with Moncada this early in the season, but it's not a great sign that the next step in his recovery has been delayed. Managers should continue to hang on to Moncada as he'll look to rebound after a disappointing 2021 campaign.

Thu Apr 7 202214:02Yoan Moncada Out Three Weeks With Oblique Strain
Chicago White Sox general manager Rick Hahn said that third baseman Yoan Moncada (oblique) will be out for three weeks with a Grade 1 oblique strain. Moncada wanted to play through the injury, but he feels it whenever he laughs or sneezes and also when he swings. The White Sox placed him on the 10-day injured list, as well as right-handers Ryan Burr (shoulder), Joe Kelly (biceps) and Lance Lynn (knee), lefty Garrett Crochet (elbow) and outfielder Yermin Mercedes (hand). With Moncada out to begin the regular season, Jake Burger will get the first start at the hot corner on Opening Day on Friday against the Detroit Tigers and left-hander Eduardo Rodriguez.

Sun Apr 3 202223:15Yoan Moncada Battling Through Slow Spring
Chicago White Sox third baseman Yoan Moncada went 0-for-3 in Cactus League action on Sunday, as he continues to struggle this spring. Moncada has just four hits through 30 at-bats this spring and is yet to homer while sporting a measly .289 OPS. Fantasy managers shouldn't put too much stock into the slow spring due to the small sample size. The 26-year-old posted a career-best strikeout rate in 2021 and should do plenty of damage as part of a loaded White Sox lineup. Moncada is a solid value in fantasy drafts at his average draft position of 147th overall.

Thu Sep 16 202113:46Yoan Moncada On The Bench Thursday
Chicago White Sox third baseman Yoan Moncada isn't starting on Thursday. The White Sox will take on the Los Angeles Angels and right-hander Alex Cobb but will do so with one of their best hitters in Moncada on the bench. The 26-year-old is batting .269 with a .380 on-base percentage, 12 home runs, and three stolen bases in 552 plate appearances this season. Romy Gonzalez will move into the lineup at third base and hit seventh on Thursday. Gonzalez has three hits so far in 16 plate appearances for the White Sox this season. Fantasy managers are probably best off looking elsewhere for streaming help.

Thu Sep 16 202107:10Yoan Moncada Hits 12th Homer
Chicago White Sox third baseman Yoan Moncada went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Wednesday's loss versus the Los Angeles Angels. Moncada crushed a homer to right field in the bottom of the fourth inning against Janson Junk to tie the game at the time. Moncada has been having a very nice second half of the season and is now hitting .310 with three homers and 10 RBI over the last month. For the season, Moncada is hitting .269 with 12 home runs and 56 RBI. As part of a dangerous lineup, Moncada should continue to drive in runs and be valuable in all formats moving forward.

Sat Sep 4 202117:00Yoan Moncada Not Starting On Saturday
Chicago White Sox third baseman Yoan Moncada isn't in Saturday's lineup for a matchup with the Kansas City Royals and left-hander Daniel Lynch. Moncada has been plenty productive for both the White Sox and fantasy managers this season, hitting .264 with a .374 on-base percentage, 11 home runs, and three stolen bases in 516 plate appearances. He'll get the day off on Saturday with Romy Gonzalez starting at third base and hitting leadoff. Gonzalez just made his Major League debut on Friday, going hitless in a pair of plate appearances. He was productive in his time at Double-A and Triple-A this season, hitting 23 home runs in 378 combined plate appearances between the two minor league levels. Still, you're probably better off looking elsewhere for streaming help on Saturday.
