Sosa went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run Wednesday against the Mariners.
Sosa has been in a timeshare arrangement at second base with Josh Rojas for the last week, starting only three of the last seven games. However, Sosa has been in the lineup for the last two contests and went 3-for-7 with a double and a homer. He now has four home runs on the season while hitting .272 across 167 plate appearances.

White Sox's Lenyn Sosa: Losing out on playing time
Rotowire
Sosa is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Mariners.
Sosa finds himself on the bench for the White Sox's third straight matchup versus a right-handed starting pitcher (Luis Castillo) and looks to have moved into more a part-time role while Josh Rojas has settled in as the team's primary second baseman. The White Sox will have a regular spot in the lineup available for Sosa when the team faces left-handed pitching, but the lack of a consistent role against righties significantly limits his fantasy appeal.

White Sox's Lenyn Sosa: Knocks in pair
Rotowire
Sosa went 1-for-2 with a walk and two RBI on Sunday against the Astros.
Sosa only has 10 RBI across 33 games this season, but five have come in his last 10 appearances. He's hitting a decent .256 for the campaign, but he has just a .086 ISO and also suffers from hitting in the bottom-third of the White Sox's order.

White Sox's Lenyn Sosa: Smacks solo homer
Rotowire
Sosa went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Thursday's 3-0 win over the Twins.
Sosa got the White Sox on the board in the second inning, when he took the first pitch of the at-bat from Chris Paddack deep to left-center field for a solo homer. It was Sosa's second home run of the season (the first of which took place on Opening Day), and he's recorded at least one hit in nine of his last 10 games, going 12-for-36 (.333) over that span.

White Sox's Lenyn Sosa: Getting day off
Rotowire
Sosa is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Twins.
Thanks to Josh Rojas (toe) being on the shelf all season, Sosa has taken hold of a near-everyday role in the White Sox infield, starting in 20 of the team's first 23 games. Sosa will take a seat Wednesday for just the fourth time in 2025, and unless he's used off the bench, he'll put his season-long eight-game hit streak on hold.

White Sox's Lenyn Sosa: Bright spot for White Sox
Rotowire
Sosa went 2-for-4 with a double Wednesday against the Athletics.
Sosa's overall numbers aren't particularly impressive, but he quietly hit well during the White Sox's home stand. Across five starts, he's gone 6-for-19 with a pair of doubles, two RBI and two runs scored. Sosa can't be counted on for much power, but he should remain a regular so long as Josh Rojas (toe) is sidelined.

White Sox's Lenyn Sosa: Hitting bench Sunday
Rotowire
Sosa is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Tigers.
Sosa will head to the bench after he started at second base in the first two games of the series. The 25-year-old has cobbled together a .200/.200/.360 slash line through 25 plate appearances on the season, and he could be at risk of losing playing time with Brooks Baldwin likely to see more reps in the infield with outfielder Mike Tauchman (hamstring) returning from the injured list Sunday.

White Sox's Lenyn Sosa: Making case for role
Rotowire
Sosa has gone 8-for-22 with four walks and six strikeouts in Cactus League action.
Sosa entered spring training with a strong chance to make the Opening Day roster because he was out of minor-league options. His performance on the field has further helped his case, though it is worth noting that he has only two extra-base hits with no home runs. Sosa doesn't have a clear role in the lineup, but he closed the 2024 campaign with a 1.018 OPS across his final 21 games, giving him more potential than many of the White Sox's projected regulars.

White Sox's Lenyn Sosa: Ending season well
Rotowire
Sosa went 2-for-5 with a double, two RBI and a run scored Thursday against the Angels.
Sosa delivered a two-RBI double and came around to score in a seven-run fifth inning for the White Sox. He's started 19 of the team's 22 games in September and delivered a .375 batting average with three home runs, 10 RBI and 11 runs scored. That could be enough to position Sosa for a starting role to begin 2025, though Brooks Baldwin (wrist) could factor in at second base as well.

White Sox's Lenyn Sosa: Exiting starting nine Wednesday
Rotowire
Sosa is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Yankees.
Sosa had batted first or second in each of the past three games, but he failed to provide a spark near the top of the lineup, going 1-for-12 at the plate. Though the White Sox probably aren't ready to pull the plug on Sosa as a near-everyday player just yet, the 24-year-old will head to the bench in the series finale nonetheless.

White Sox's Lenyn Sosa: Sent down to minors
Rotowire
The White Sox optioned Sosa to Triple-A Charlotte on Wednesday, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.
Sosa had a stretch recently with five straight multi-hit games, but he finished the first half going just 2-for-22 across his last six contests and has managed just a .624 OPS on the season. Nick Senzel will take Sosa's spot on the roster and could also replace him as the White Sox's everyday third baseman.
