May return this weekend White Sox manager Pedro Grifol said Jimenez (hamstring) could return to action this weekend, James Fegan of The Athletic reports

Impact Jimenez was initially expected to miss up to three weeks after landing on the 10-day IL on April 5, but has apparently made a fast recovery. The 26-year-old outfielder is eligible to return Saturday against Baltimore.

Takes batting practice Jimenez (hamstring) was spotted taking batting practice on the field prior to Monday's game against the Twins, James Fegan of The Athletic reports.

Impact Since hitting the injured list this past Wednesday with a left hamstring strain, Jimenez has already resumed light running and hitting, activities that suggest he's progressing well in his recovery. Jimenez remains hopeful that his absence will be limited to around two weeks, but while he's sidelined, Gavin Sheets should hold down a strong-side platoon role in the Chicago lineup.

Plays catch, runs Jimenez (hamstring) was able to play catch and do some running Thursday, James Fegan of The Athletic reports.

Impact Jimenez said afterward that he would be able to pinch-hit Thursday if he was on the active roster. He's not, of course, after being placed on the injured list Wednesday, but it's a good sign that he could be ready to go when his 10 days are up or shortly after.

Hopefully out just two weeks White Sox manager Pedro Grifol told reporters before Wednesday's game the Giants that he's hopeful Jimenez (hamstring) will miss only two weeks, Scot Gregor of the Chicago Daily He...

Impact Jimenez strained his left hamstring going from first to third Monday, and was placed on the injured list Wednesday. There's a chance that the injury could keep him out longer than those two weeks, but it does appear the 26-year-old should be able to return before the end of April.

Hits IL with hamstring strain The White Sox placed Jimenez on the 10-day injured list Wednesday with a low-grade left hamstring strain. He's expected to miss 2-to-3 weeks, according to James Fegan of The Athlet...

Impact Jimenez presumably picked up the injury at some point during Tuesday's 12-3 loss to the Giants. The hamstring strain is the latest in a growing list of injuries that have derailed the 26-year-old thus far in his young career, but based on Fegan's report, Jimenez doesn't look as though he'll be headed for an extended absence. Chicago recalled infielder Jake Burger from Triple-A Charlotte in a corresponding move, but Gavin Sheets is the most likely player to benefit from a playing-time perspective while Jimenez is out of the lineup.

Drives in two runs Jimenez went 2-for-4 with two doubles, two RBI and a run scored in Friday's loss to Houston.

Impact The 26-year-old slugger knocked two RBI doubles off Cristian Javier, one in the first inning and another in the sixth. Jimenez bounced back quickly after an 0-for-5, two-strikeout performance on Opening Day. Both of his hits Friday went over 105mph off the bat.

Back in action in Cactus League Jimenez (calf) will serve as the White Sox's designated hitter and cleanup batter in Wednesday's split-squad Cactus League game against the Royals, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicag...

Impact Jimenez exited early in Monday's game against the Diamondbacks due to what the White Sox labeled as right calf camping, and fortunately for the 26-year-old, the issue wasn't anything more severe than that. After getting Tuesday off to rest and rehydrate, Jimenez is good to go one day later. In an effort to keep Jimenez healthy following consecutive injury-riddled campaigns, the White Sox could have him see an even larger share of his work out of the DH spot rather than the corner outfield in 2023. Jimenez made 50 starts as a DH and 30 as a left fielder last season.

Expected back Wednesday Jimenez (calf) is expected to return to the White Sox's Cactus League lineup Wednesday, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

Impact Jimenez set off alarm bells when he exited Monday's game with a right calf injury, but it's merely cramps and he's fine now. The slugger is sitting out Tuesday in what was already a scheduled off day, but he'll be back in there in one of the team's split-squad lineups Wednesday.

Making start in right Sunday White Sox manager Pedro Grifol told reporters that Jimenez will start Sunday in right field, Scott Merkin of MLB.com reports.

Impact Jimenez is expected to primarily play as the designated hitter for the White Sox, but Grifol will give the slugger a chance to play in the outfield on occasion. The 26-year-old has gotten some reps in the field this spring even while away from the team, as he was able to play right field for Team Dominican Republic in the World Baseball Classic before they were eliminated.

Dropped 25-30 pounds Jimenez said Wednesday that he dropped 25-30 pounds over the offseason, Vinnie Duber of AllCHGO.com reports.

Impact Jimenez slimmed down in an effort to become more of an everyday outfielder for the White Sox, as he has stated many times that he dislikes DHing. He also noted to reporters Wednesday that his swing has less effort to it now as a result of the leaner physical build. The 26-year-old slugger sure seems primed for a healthier and more productive overall showing in 2023.

Won't start Wednesday Interim manager Miguel Cairo said Jimenez won't be in the lineup for Wednesday's season finale against Minnesota, James Fegan of The Athletic reports.

Impact The 25-year-old went 1-for-3 with a double, a walk, an RBI and a run during Wednesday's 8-3 victory, which will end up being his final start of the season. Barring an appearance off the bench, Jimenez will finish 2022 with a .295/.358/.500 slash line, 16 home runs, 54 RBI and 40 runs in 84 games.

Impact Jimenez is 2-for-16 over his past five games and will take a seat for Sunday's series finale in San Diego. Jose Abreu will serve as the designated hitter while Andrew Vaughn receives a start at first base.

Slugs solo shot Jimenez went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Friday's 3-1 win over the Padres.

Impact Jimenez tied the game when he took Yu Darvish deep in the fourth inning. Over his last 20 games, Jimenez has slugged seven of his 16 homers and added 20 of his 53 RBI for the season. The outfielder's batting average dipped below .300 for the first time since Sept. 6, but he's produced a strong .871 OPS through 81 contests this year.
