White Sox's Luis Robert: Rehab games could come this week
White Sox manager Pedro Grifol said Monday that Robert (hip) could begin playing in games with the team's Arizona Complex League affiliate later this week, James Fegan of SoxMachine.com reports.
The White Sox are aiming for Robert to be able to run at 90 percent effort in the coming days and if that happens he's expected to be cleared for complex league games. The 26-year-old presumably would eventually move up to a higher affiliate to continue his rehab. Robert has been out since early April with a Grade 2 right hip flexor strain but should return before the end of the month if all goes well.

White Sox's Michael Soroka: Falls to 0-5
Soroka (0-5) yielded five runs (four earned) on four hits and a walk over 5.1 innings Sunday, striking out four and taking a loss against Cleveland.
Soroka gave up one run through three innings before stumbling in the fourth. He coughed up two homers in the frame, including a two-run shot by David Fry. Soroka has surrendered at least one home run in eight of his nine starts this season. On a more positive note, Sunday was the first time he's issued fewer than two walks since April 4. Soroka now owns a 6.39 ERA with a 24:24 K:BB through 43.2 frames. His next start is projected to be a road matchup with the Yankees.

Mendick will begin a rehab assignment in the next day or two according to manager Pedro Grifol. The 30-year-old has been out since May 2 with lower-back tightness, but he appears to be on track to return to the major-league roster in the near future.

White Sox's Nicky Lopez: Resting against lefty
Lopez is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Guardians.
With southpaw Logan Allen on the hill for Cleveland, the lefty-hitting Lopez will take a seat. Zach Remillard will replace Lopez at second base in the series finale.

Benintendi is out of the starting lineup for Sunday's series finale against the Guardians.

White Sox's John Brebbia: Secures first save
Brebbia earned a save against the Guardians on Saturday by retiring all three batters he faced, including one by strikeout, in the ninth inning.
Michael Kopech has emerged as Chicago's primary closer early in the campaign, but manager Pedro Grifol opted to go to Brebbia in the ninth Saturday with the team holding a two-run lead. The right-hander got the job done, setting down the side in order on 14 pitches for his first major-league save since 2018. It's unclear why Kopech wasn't used despite getting Friday off -- it's worth noting that he notched back-to-back saves Wednesday and Thursday -- but if he has to miss time for any reason, Brebbia would be among a group of White Sox relievers who could snap up any save opportunities that arise.

White Sox's Mike Clevinger: Shows improvement in second start
Clevinger allowed one run on four hits and no walks while striking out five batters over 4.2 innings in a no-decision against Cleveland on Saturday.
Clevinger struggled mightily in his season debut Monday, giving up four runs (three earned) on six hits and four walks over two innings. The veteran looked much better Saturday, yielding just a fourth-inning run while cutting the free passes entirely out of his stat line. Clevinger needed just one more out to qualify for the win, but he was pulled for a lefty reliever after giving up a single to the final batter he faced in the fifth frame. Despite that minor disappointment, this was a promising outing considering his disastrous previous start, and it should help him as he works to push up his pitch count after missing spring training and signing with Chicago in early April.

White Sox's Korey Lee: Resting Saturday
Lee is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's contest against the Guardians.
Lee will begin Saturday's game in the dugout while Martin Maldonado gets the start at catcher and bats ninth against Cleveland right-hander Triston McKenzie. Lee went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a second run scored Friday, and the 25-year-old is 7-for-18 with two home runs and four RBI over five games in May.

White Sox's Paul DeJong: Continues hitting well
DeJong went 2-for-3 with a solo home run and a second run scored Friday against the Guardians.
DeJong smacked his sixth home run of the season, three of which have come in his last four games. He's performed well in addition to the long balls of late, as he has at least one hit in eight of his last 10 starts, and he's also chipped in six RBI and nine runs scored in that span. DeJong has reclaimed his spot as the White Sox's primary shortstop, and he should continue to get playing time so long as he's hitting well.

White Sox's Korey Lee: Keeps flashing power
Lee went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a second run scored Friday against the Guardians.
Lee took Carlos Carrasco deep in the seventh inning to tally his fourth home run of the season, three of which have come in his last 11 games. He's gone 11-for-33 in that span, also chipping in five RBI and four runs scored. Lee remains in a near even split for playing time with Martin Maldonado behind the plate.

White Sox's Andrew Vaughn: Pops first homer
Vaughn went 1-for-4 with a solo home run Friday against the Guardians.
Vaughn finally popped his first home run of the season when he took Pedro Avila deep in the eighth inning. He entered the game with only eight extra-base hits across 146 plate appearances, all of which were doubles. Overall, Vaughn is slashing just .196/.253/.275 across 150 plate appearances.

White Sox's Jordan Leasure: Notches second save
Leasure threw 1.1 shutout innings and earned a save against Cleveland on Friday.
Leasure fired 12 of 16 pitches for strikes to quickly finish off the 6-3 victory. He's converted two of his three save chances this season, with both conversions coming in his last six appearances. Leasure lowered his ERA to 2.20 with an 11:6 K:BB through 16.1 innings. Michael Kopech was seemingly unavailable after pitching Wednesday and Thursday.

White Sox's Garrett Crochet: Punches out 11
Crochet (3-4) yielded five hits over six shutout frames Friday while striking out 11 as he earned a win over the Guardians.
Crochet carved up Cleveland's lineup with ease, setting new career bests with 11 strikeouts and 21 whiffs. He seems to be fully back on track after struggling during the middle of April. He gave up 17 runs over an ugly three-start stretch but has allowed just three runs while registering a 24:1 K:BB over his last three outings. Crochet lowered his season ERA to 4.63 with an outstanding 64:9 K:BB through 46.2 frames. He's currently in line for a home matchup with the Nationals next week.
