Belts first long ball as Blue Jay Sosa went 2-for-5 with a solo home run, an additional run and an additional RBI on Saturday against the Twins in an 11-4 victory.

Impact Sosa kicked off the scoring for Toronto with a 415-foot solo shot in the second inning. He added another RBI on an infield single in the eighth. The long ball was Sosa's first of the season in his 24th game after he went deep 22 times across 140 contests with the White Sox last year. Overall, he's slashing a modest .257/.254/.386 and has yet to take a walk over 72 plate appearances on the campaign, but he may be heating up after going 5-for-9 across his past two games.

Drives in two runs as pinch hitter Sosa went 1-for-1 with a two-run double during the Blue Jays' 4-2 win over the Angels on Tuesday.

Impact Sosa pinch hit for Jesus Sanchez in the eighth, and the former made the most of his opportunity by smacking a two-run double off Drew Pomeranz to left field to put the Blue Jays up 3-1. Since being acquired by the Blue Jays from the White Sox on April 13, Sosa has gone 4-for-14 (.286) with two doubles and four RBI, and he has given his new team a solid boost at the plate in the absences of both George Springer (toe) and Addison Barger (ankles).

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.

MARCH 29 • ROTOWIRE

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.
