Austin Hays Returns to Injured List as White Sox Reshuffle Outfield

AutoDraft Pro AI

The Chicago White Sox have placed outfielder Austin Hays back on the injured list. This move comes as the team continues to deal with health issues across their roster. In a corresponding move to bolster their outfield depth, the White Sox signed veteran Randal Grichuk to a $1.25 million deal. Hays’ return to the IL is a setback for the Chicago offense, which has struggled to maintain consistency. The team will look to Grichuk to provide a right-handed power bat in Hays’ absence for the time being.
