Andrew Benintendi Nearing Return After Side Soreness

Andrew Benintendi (side) took swings Sunday and is anticipated to return to Cactus League action following the White Sox' off day on Wednesday. He was scratched from Friday's lineup due to right side soreness but indicated that the team is exercising caution and he would play if it were the regular season. Benintendi is expected to be the primary left fielder for Chicago in 2026, also seeing time at designated hitter.
