GLENDALE, Ariz. (AP) — Chicago White Sox
infielder Josh Rojas has a hairline fracture in his right big
toe, putting his availability for opening day in question.
Rojas is batting .313 (10 for 32) in his first spring training
with the White Sox. He left Saturday's split-squad game against
Colorado with toe soreness.
“We're just kind of going to give him treatment and see where it
goes," first-year manager Will Venable told reporters on Monday.
"I think we just kind of get him doing his treatment and his
rehab and kind of take it day by day and see where he’s at.
Hopefully he’s back here with us soon.”
The 30-year-old Rojas batted .225 with eight homers and 31 RBIs
in 143 games with Seattle last year. He became a free agent in
November when Seattle declined to offer him a 2025 contract.
Rojas finalized a $3.5 million, one-year contract with Chicago
in January. The White Sox host the Los Angeles Angels for their
season opener on March 27.
Also on Monday, Chicago optioned outfielder Dominic Fletcher to
Triple-A Charlotte. Catching prospects Kyle Teel and Edgar Quero
were among 10 players reassigned to minor league camp.
