CHICAGO (AP) — The White Sox placed second
baseman Lenyn Sosa on the 10-day injured list because of a
strained right hip flexor and recalled first baseman Tim Elko
from Triple-A Charlotte on Wednesday.
Chicago transferred right-hander Miguel Castro to the 60-day IL
with a torn patellar tendon in his right knee prior to its game
against Detroit. The White Sox also claimed righty Ryan Cusick
off waivers from the Tigers and optioned him to Charlotte.
The 25-year-old Sosa is batting .274 with four homers and 17
RBIs in his fourth season. He said through an interpreter that
he was hurt running early in Monday’s blowout loss to Detroit
and the pain intensified during the game. He did not play in
Tuesday's win.
Sosa said he expects to return in a week-and-a-half, though
manager Will Venable said the team did not have a timetable.
Elko, 26, played in 10 games with the White Sox from May 10 to
May 22, going 5 for 31 with three homers and five RBIs in his
first major league stint. His first hit was a three-run homer in
a 4-2 win over Miami on May 11.
