URGENT UPDATE: The Chicago White Sox have made a significant roster change just hours before their game against the Minnesota Twins. The team has recalled catcher Korey Lee from Triple-A Charlotte and designated infielder Josh Rojas for assignment.
This decision, announced earlier today, adds depth to the White Sox’s catching lineup, now featuring three active catchers. Kyle Teel will start behind the plate against Minnesota, while Edgar Quero is set to serve as the designated hitter.
Korey Lee, 27, was part of Chicago’s opening-day roster but was sent down in June. This season, he has played 14 games for the White Sox, posting a batting average of .250 with 7 hits in 28 at-bats. In his time with Charlotte, he excelled with a .255 average, hitting eight home runs and driving in 28 RBIs over 55 games.
In contrast, Josh Rojas, 31, has struggled this season after signing a $3.5 million contract with the team in January. He has managed only a .180 batting average with two home runs and 11 RBIs across 69 games.
This roster shake-up reflects the White Sox’s urgent need to improve their performance as they face the Twins tonight. Fans will be watching closely to see if Lee can make an immediate impact and help turn the tide for the struggling team.
Stay tuned for more updates as this story develops.
