  Rojas is not in the lineup for Thursday's game in Kansas City.

Miguel Vargas is at the hot corner and Lenyn Sosa is at the keystone for Thursday's series finale.

• White Sox's Josh Rojas: Reinstated, starting at third

  Rotowire May 4, 2025

  Rojas (toe) was activated from the 10-day injured list and will start at third base and bat seventh Sunday versus the Astros. Rojas has been sidelined since he fractured his right big toe in mid-March, but he's ready to make his debut for the White Sox after a three-game rehab assignment. The 30-year-old had an underwhelming .225/.304/.336 slash line with eight homers and 10 steals in 143 games in Seattle last year, but he inked a one-year, $3.5 million deal with Chicago in January and is expected to see regular action between second base and the hot corner now that he's healthy.
