White Sox's Brooks Baldwin: Headed to Triple-A
The White Sox optioned Baldwin to Triple-A Charlotte on Monday.
Baldwin has been a regular for the White Sox this season in a super-utility role, but he's managed to slash only .215/.257/.331 over 44 contests. He's clearing out to make room on the active roster for the return of outfielder Austin Slater (knee) from the injured list.

White Sox's Brooks Baldwin: Taking seat Tuesday

White Sox's Brooks Baldwin: On bench for second straight game
Baldwin is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Royals.
The switch-hitting Baldwin will hit the bench for the second day in a row, sitting this time against Royals southpaw Cole Ragans after being held out of the lineup against a right-hander (Lance McCullers) on Sunday. Baldwin doesn't have a regular spot at any one position, but his ability to play all over the infield and outfield should allow him to make at least a handful of starts per week while he's up with the big club.

White Sox's Brooks Baldwin: Taking seat Sunday
Baldwin is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Astros.
The White Sox infield has become more crowded in recent days with the returns of Chase Meidroth (thumb) and Josh Rojas (toe) from the injured list, but the versatile Baldwin may still have a fairly clear path to playing time due to his ability to play all three outfield spots. The 24-year-old will take a seat Sunday however, as the White Sox roll out a starting outfield of Andrew Benintendi, Luis Robert and Joshua Palacios from left to right.

White Sox's Brooks Baldwin: Pops two-run homer
Baldwin went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run Friday against the Athletics.
Baldwin has primarily started in the corner outfield spots for the White Sox, but he slotted in at shortstop Friday with Chase Meidroth (thumb) sidelined. He popped his second homer of the season in the ninth inning against impressive closer Mason Miller, giving Baldwin his first multi-hit effort since April 11. Despite the slow stretch, he has six extra-base hits with a 108 wRC+ across 74 plate appearances.

White Sox's Brooks Baldwin: Sitting out Thursday
Baldwin is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Twins.
The White Sox haven't committed to using Baldwin at any one position, but his status as a switch hitter and his ability to play all three outfield spots and three infield spots should allow him to hold down a near-everyday role. He'll hit the bench for the series finale, however, opening up a start for Michael Taylor in center field.

White Sox's Brooks Baldwin: Taking seat Saturday
Baldwin isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against Boston.
Baldwin has gone 6-for-20 with a homer, four RBI and two runs scored over his last six games. The White Sox will give him a break Saturday while Michael Taylor starts in right field, batting eighth.

White Sox's Brooks Baldwin: Accounts for team's only run
Baldwin went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Wednesday's loss to the Athletics.
Baldwin gave the White Sox an early lead with his solo shot in the third inning, but that was the only run the team ended up scoring. It was the second long ball and eighth RBI of the season through 15 games for Baldwin, tying his total in each category across 33 contests last year. Baldwin has also shown improvement with a .267 batting average so far after hitting just .211 last season, though he continues to be averse to walks with just one free pass in 48 plate appearances.

White Sox's Brooks Baldwin: Out of Tuesday's lineup
Baldwin is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Athletics.
Baldwin has been serving in a super-utility role for the White Sox but will begin Tuesday's festivities on the bench. He's seen most of his action in the corner-outfield spots lately, but Chicago will go with Michael Taylor in left field and Joshua Palacios in right field Tuesday.

White Sox's Brooks Baldwin: Not starting Saturday
Baldwin isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against Boston.
Baldwin will get a chance to rest Saturday after going 2-for-5 with an RBI, a run scored and a stolen base in Friday's series opener. Joshua Palacios will fill the resulting vacancy in right field and bat fifth.

White Sox's Brooks Baldwin: Records first steal
Baldwin went 2-for-5 with one RBI, a stolen base and one run scored in Friday's 11-1 win over the Red Sox.
Baldwin had gone 0-for-11 over his previous four games before logging his first multi-hit effort of the season. The steal was also his first of the season, while the RBI he earned on an eighth-inning single was the first run he's knocked in since April 4. The utility player is batting .237 (9-for-38) with a home run, six RBI and two runs scored over 12 contests. He's carving out a decent share of playing time despite not focusing on a single position, but playing for the White Sox will likely prevent him from racking up significant counting stats.

White Sox's Brooks Baldwin: Heading to bench Wednesday
Baldwin is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Guardians.
Baldwin will begin Wednesday's game on the bench after he started in each of the last six games while playing four different positions (second base, shortstop, left field and right field). The White Sox haven't settled on a permanent spot for Baldwin, but the switch-hitting utility player should continue to hold down a near-everyday role.

White Sox's Brooks Baldwin: Goes yard Wednesday
Baldwin went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 6-1 loss to the Twins.
The 24-year-old switch hitter spoiled a shutout bid by Pablo Lopez with his seventh-inning blast. It was Baldwin's first long ball of the season, and he's making a case to take over the starting shortstop job for the White Sox with a five-game hitting streak to begin the season, during which he's batting .357 (5-for-14).

White Sox's Brooks Baldwin: On bench for series opener
Baldwin is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Twins.
Baldwin had picked up starts in both of the White Sox's previous two matchups with right-handed pitchers, going 2-for-7 at the dish. Though he'll find himself out of the lineup in Monday's series opener versus Twins righty Chris Paddack, Baldwin's standing as a switch hitter who's capable of playing multiple spots in the infield and outfield should allow him to continue seeing at least semi-regular playing time.

White Sox's Brooks Baldwin: Option for starts at shortstop
Baldwin is among the candidates to see starts at shortstop for the White Sox, Scott Merkin of MLB.com reports.
Colson Montgomery and Chase Meidroth are back in the minors, leaving Baldwin, Jacob Amaya and non-roster invitees Nick Maton and Tristan Gray as candidates at shortstop in what will be a "mix and matching" situation, per manager Will Venable. Amaya is probably the favorite to see the bulk of the time at shortstop based on his defensive prowess. Baldwin, meanwhile, operated in a utility role during spring training and could continue to bounce around all over the field for the Southsiders.

White Sox's Brooks Baldwin: Chance to begin season at SS
Baldwin could begin the 2025 season as the White Sox starting shortstop, Chris Getz of MLB.com reports.
The White Sox have a particularly uncertain outlook at shortstop, with Baldwin, Colson Montgomery and Chase Meidroth all potential candidates. Baldwin has the advantage of big-league experience as well as defensive versatility. His big-league debut didn't go well in 2024 -- he maintained a .249 wOBA and 58 wRC+ in 121 plate appearances -- but his ability to play second base and shortstop as well as some outfield should keep him in consideration for a significant role to begin the 2025 campaign.

White Sox's Brooks Baldwin: Could resume hitting this week
Baldwin (wrist) could resume on-field hitting this week but is unsure he'll make it back before the end of the season, Scott Merkin of MLB.com reports.
The right wrist sprain that sent Baldwin to the 10-day injured list earlier this month has improved, but he might run out of time before he's ready to return to the White Sox's active roster. The rookie infielder has slashed .211/.250/.316 in 33 games for Chicago this season.

White Sox's Brooks Baldwin: Lands on IL
The White Sox placed Baldwin on the 10-day injured list Wednesday with a right wrist sprain, LaMond Pope of the Chicago Tribune reports.
A hand injury kept Baldwin sidelined for seven consecutive games before he entered Tuesday's game off the bench, though he'll now need to miss at least another 10 days after injuring his wrist. Lenyn Sosa will presumably continue to see regular starts while Baldwin is out, and Bryan Ramos will come up from Triple-A Charlotte to replenish Chicago's infield depth.

White Sox's Brooks Baldwin: Still sitting Wednesday
Baldwin (hand) is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Orioles, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.
Baldwin hasn't been in the lineup since Aug. 27 due to a hand injury, though he did come off the bench to play second base in Tuesday's blowout loss, going 0-for-3 with a strikeout. That appearance indicates the 24-year-old is now healthy and that he's no longer the preferred option at second base. Nicky Lopez is starting at the keystone Wednesday, but Lenyn Sosa started there in three of the previous four games.
