CHICAGO \u2013\u2013 Rookie infielder Chase Meidroth hit the injured list on Thursday with a right thumb contusion, stemming from being hit by pitch on July 30. The injury is retroactive to Aug. 4, and the White Sox plan to give him some time off during the ongoing home stand before he resumes baseball activities.<\/p>\n

“Probably not over the weekend and then maybe get a bat in his hand on Monday and see what it looks like,” manager Will Venable said before Friday’s game. “But part of the plan here of putting him on the IL is to give him a couple of days upfront to not swing the bat.”<\/p>\n

The team called up infielder Jacob Amaya from Triple-A Charlotte to replace Meidroth, who has played shortstop and second base this season. Colson Montgomery has started each game at shortstop without Meidroth, and Lenyn Sosa got the start at second base on Friday against the Guardians.<\/p>\n

White Sox general manager Chris Getz said Meidroth is progressing well, but the nature of his game enhances the impact of his injury.<\/p>\n

“Chase, being the hitter that he is, he\u2019s very handsy, that top hand is such a big part of his offensive game. It really sets his direction and when you have inflammation in there, you want to avoid any bad habits,” Getz said. “We wanted to zap that, eliminate any sort of irritation. He\u2019s going to start swinging the bat here this weekend at some point.”<\/p>\n

Meidroth, 24, slashed .252\/.330\/.319 with three home runs, 15 RBIs, 11 stolen bases, 33 walks and 47 strikeouts through the first 349 plate appearances of his major league career. The White Sox acquired him in December as part of the Garrett Crochet trade with the Red Sox, who also sent Braden Montgomery, Kyle Teel and Wikelman Gonzalez to Chicago.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
