Shipped out to Toronto The Blue Jays acquired Sosa from the White Sox on Monday in exchange for outfielder Jordan Rich and a player to be named later or cash considerations.

Impact After leading the White Sox with 22 home runs during his age-25 season in 2025, Sosa had somewhat surprisingly fallen out of favor through the first two and a half weeks of the 2026 campaign. He had started in just eight of the White Sox's first 16 games, slashing .212/.212/.303 across 33 plate appearances. Though he'll be joining a Blue Jays squad with more established hitting talent, Sosa could capture a more meaningful role in the short term while the club navigates some injuries. Toronto may give him a look as its primary designated hitter in place of George Springer, who was placed on the 10-day injured list Sunday due to a fractured left big toe.

Absent from lineup again Sosa is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Brewers.

Impact After slugging a team-high 22 home runs in 2025, Sosa was expected to have a fairly clear path to an everyday role this season, but the White Sox have instead deployed him as more of a part-time player in the early going. The White Sox have opened the season with matchups against three straight right-handed starting pitchers, and Sosa has been on the bench for two of those games. Meanwhile, Everson Pereira has started in all three contests and seems to be getting prioritized over Sosa for the final spot in the team's regular lineup.

Out of Opening Day lineup Sosa won't be in the lineup for Thursday's game against the Brewers, James Fegan of SoxMachine.com reports.

Impact Sosa slashed .261/.314/.522 with two homers, 11 RBI and six runs scored across 51 plate appearances in the Cactus League and is expected to begin the year as the White Sox's primary DH, but he will remain on the bench during the team's season opener. Andrew Benintendi will serve as the designated hitter instead while Austin Hays, Luisangel Acuna and Everson Pereira start across the outfield.

Could be on roster bubble Sosa does not have a set defensive home entering the 2026 season and is on the White Sox's roster bubble, Mark Gonzales of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

Impact Sosa started 99 games at second base and 42 at first base for the White Sox in 2025, and he was an exactly league-average hitter with a 100 wRC+ across 544 plate appearances. However, the emergence of Chase Meidroth and the signing of Murataka Murakami will push Sosa out of those roles entering 2026. Also hurting Sosa is his lack of defensive value at any position, as he registered minus-10 defensive runs saved at second last season. While he doesn't necessarily have a clear path to playing time, the team's decision about Sosa's roster spot will likely be influenced by the fact that he's out of minor-league options.
