Losing playing time to Ramos Mendick is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Orioles.

Impact After being activated from the injured list Friday, Mendick had started at third base in each of the White Sox's ensuing five games, going 3-for-18 with two doubles and two RBI. Mendick should have a fairly clear path to regular playing time at the hot corner while Bryan Ramos (quadricep) is on the shelf, but he'll give way to Zach Remillard in Wednesday's series finale.

Drives in two Mendick went 2-for-4 with a single and a two-run double during Tuesday's 5-0 win over the Blue Jays.

The 30-year-old delivered a two-run double in the eighth inning off Tim Mayza to provide the White Sox with some insurance runs. Mendick has been serving as the White Sox's everyday third baseman with Bryan Ramos (quad) sidelined.

Impact With the arrival of Brett Baty and Ronny Mauricio to the major-league squad Friday, Mendick will be pushed back into the minors. The 29-year-old infielder slashed just .190/.227/.286 across 66 plate appearances with the Mets and will likely finish the season in Syracuse.

Enjoys big offensive effort Monday Mendick went 2-for-4 with a three-run home run and scored an additional run in an 11-2 rout of the Cubs on Monday.

Impact Pete Alonso powered the Mets with two homers early, and Mendick provided the icing on the cake with a three-run shot in the seventh inning that made the score 10-2. The long ball was the first of the campaign for Mendick and just his 11th in 440 career at-bats. The 29-year-old started at third base Monday in the wake of Brett Baty being sent down to the minors, and Mendick could operate in the short side of a platoon with Mark Vientos at the hot corner moving forward.

Promoted to majors Mendick was recalled by the Mets on Saturday, Mike Puma of the New York Post reports.

Impact The Mets are in need of infield depth after trading Eduardo Escobar to the Angels on Friday. Mendick fills that role well, as he's capable of playing across most of the infield. In 317 plate appearances with Triple-A Syracuse this season, he's maintained a .264/.356/.401 line. Mendick's stay in the majors may be short-lived, as Mark Vientos is a candidate to be recalled as soon as he is eligible to return to the majors.

JUNE 24, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
