Chicago White Sox infielder Lenyn Sosa has been impressing this season, leading the team with 55 hits before being placed on the 10-day injured list due to a right hip flexor strain. Manager Will Venable praised Sosa as a "sneaky performer," highlighting his consistent presence and contribution to the team's performance. Sosa reported feeling discomfort during a game against the Tigers, but reassured fans it's not serious and expects to return in about a week and a half. In his absence, Tim Elko has been recalled from Triple-A Charlotte, where he has been performing well.

Elko expressed excitement about rejoining the Sox and aims to replicate his recent success in the minors, where he posted strong numbers, including a .596 slugging percentage. Adjusting his approach at the plate, Elko aims to avoid overswinging, focusing instead on a more patient batting strategy. Meanwhile, with Sosa sidelined, the White Sox have shuffled their lineup, moving Miguel Vargas to third base and Josh Rojas to second. Venable is optimistic about the team’s flexibility and resilience, as they navigate Sosa's injury.
