Romy Gonzalez - Page 12 - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Called up by Red Sox The Red Sox called up Gonzalez from Triple-A Worcester on Monday, Rob Bradford of WEEI.com reports.

Impact In a corresponding move, the Red Sox optioned Bobby Dalbec to Triple-A Worcester. Gonzalez had a strong start to his minor-league season, slashing .321/.375/.821 with three home runs and 10 RBI over 32 plate appearances. He'll bring some infield depth and a right-handed bat for the Red Sox.

Looks healthy in spring training Gonzalez (shoulder) has appeared in 10 Grapefruit League games to date, going 3-for-20 with one home run, one stolen base and seven strikeouts against zero walks.

Impact Gonzalez, whom the Red Sox claimed off waivers from the White Sox in January, hasn't faced any restrictions this spring after his 2023 campaign was cut short when he underwent surgery last July to repair a torn labrum in his right shoulder. Though he occupies a spot on Boston's 40-man roster and is contention for a spot on the Opening Day squad as a utility player, Gonzalez still has two minor-league options remaining, which may work against him in the roster competition.

Undergoes shoulder surgery Gonzalez underwent surgery to repair a torn labrum in his right shoulder in mid-July, Scott Merkin of MLB.com reports.

Impact This news was just revealed by the White Sox on Friday and it helps to explain why Gonzalez was transferred to the 60-day IL just before the All-Star break. The 26-year-old right-hander is aiming to be ready for the start of spring training in 2024.

AUGUST 11, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Shifts to 60-day IL The White Sox transferred Gonzalez (shoulder) from the 10-day injured list to the 60-day IL on Sunday.

Impact Though Gonzalez was officially diagnosed with right shoulder inflammation upon landing on the 10-day IL on June 19, he'll wind up missing at least two months -- well beyond the timeline typically associated with the injury. With Gonzalez on the shelf until at least the second half of August, Zach Remillard may have some staying power on the White Sox's 26-man active roster as a utility infielder.

Heads to IL with sore shoulder Gonzalez was placed on the 10-day injured list Monday with right shoulder inflammation, LaMond Pope of the Chicago Tribune reports.

Impact Gonzalez has dealt with the injury for nearly a week and the White Sox finally decided to put him on the IL. He'll be eligible to return on June 28, although it's unclear at this time whether he will be ready by then. Zach Remillard is starting at second base Monday and the White Sox also called up Jose Rodriguez.

Limited by sore shoudler Gonzalez is limited by a sore right shoulder, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

Impact Gonzalez hasn't started since Tuesday and hasn't appeared off the bench since Wednesday, though his .194/.208/.376 season slash line means there's no guarantee he'd be playing even if healthy. He'll be evaluated when the team gets back to Chicago on Monday, which means it's unlikely he appears in Sunday's series finale against Seattle.

JUNE 17, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Steal and run off bench Gonzalez logged a stolen base and a run scored as a pinch runner in Wednesday's 8-4 win over the Dodgers.

Impact Gonzalez ran for Eloy Jimenez in the ninth inning as the White Sox rallied for a three-run frame. Over nine contests in June, Gonzalez has gone 3-for-22 with four steals, two RBI and three runs scored. His cold bat could lead to more opportunities for Elvis Andrus at second base. For the season, Gonzalez owns a .194/.208/.376 slash line with seven steals, three home runs, 14 RBI and 11 runs scored over 97 plate appearances.

JUNE 15, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Sitting out vs. Dodgers Gonzalez is out of the starting lineup for Wednesday's contest versus the Dodgers.

Impact Gonzalez gets a breather after going 0-for-3 with two strikeouts in Tuesday's loss to the Dodgers. Elvis Andrus gets the start at second base and will hit ninth in Gonzalez's place.

JUNE 14, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Pair of RBI in return to lineup Gonzalez went 1-for-4 with a double and two RBI on Sunday against the Marlins.

Impact Gonzalez was back in the lineup after a two-game absence, with Elvis Andrus starting in his place. He delivered a two-RBI double in the sixth inning, only his third hit across 19 at-bats through seven games in June. Gonzalez may find it difficult to earn playing time moving forward so long as Andrus, Tim Anderson and Yoan Moncada remain healthy.

JUNE 12, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Sits for second straight Gonzalez will be on the bench Saturday against Miami.

Impact Gonzalez had been settling in as the White Sox's primary second baseman, starting 14 of 16 games at the keystone even with Elvis Andrus back from his oblique injury for the last six games of that stretch. Gonzalez has hit just .198/.213/.384 though 39 games this season, however, so it's perhaps no surprise that he's been back on the bench for the last two games. That said, Andrus is hitting just .200/.278/.248 himself, so he hasn't deserved everyday at-bats either.

JUNE 10, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Nabs two thefts Thursday Gonzalez went 0-for-3 with a walk and two stolen bases in the opening game of Thursday's doubleheader versus the Yankees.

Impact It wasn't a successful day at the plate for Gonzalez, who also went 0-for-3 in the nightcap to finish at 0-for-6 overall. However, he redeemed himself from a fantasy perspective with two thefts in the opener to bring his total to six on the season. Four of the steals have come since May 30, a stretch during which he has started seven of Chicago's eight games.

JUNE 9, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Another start at second base Gonzalez is starting at second base and batting eighth Thursday in the first game of a doubleheader against the Yankees.

Impact Elvis Andrus returned from the injured list on June 2, but it's been Gonzalez at second base for four of five games since then. Andrus has made just two starts during that span, with one of them coming at third base. Gonzalez has been all-or-nothing at the plate, but he does have an .874 OPS since May 1 thanks in large part to a three-game homer streak last month.

Maintains home run streak Gonzalez went 2-for-4 with a solo homer, one double, an additional RBI, an additional run scored and one steal in Tuesday's 7-3 victory over the Angels.

Impact Gonzales continued his tear at the plate, swatting his third home run in as many games while also swiping his third bag of the season. Since being activated from the IL on May 13, Gonzales owns a .323 average with three homers, 11 RBI and six runs scored. Though his recent play has been quite encouraging, Gonzales will likely return to a backup role upon the return of Elvis Andrus (oblique), which is expected to come later this week.

Romy González brings the fire on a solo home run to expand on the White Sox's lead over the Angels

MAY 31, 2023 • FOX SPORTS

Homers in second straight game Gonzalez went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Monday's 6-4 loss to the Angels.

Impact After going without a home run in his first 58 plate appearances of the season, Gonzalez has now popped solo blasts in both of the White Sox's past two games. He appears to have supplanted Hanser Alberto as Chicago's preferred second baseman for the time being, but both Gonzalez and Alberto will see their opportunities take a hit when Elvis Andrus (oblique) likely returns from the 10-day injured list later this week.

Romy González gives the White Sox an early lead after a solo home run against the Tigers

MAY 28, 2023 • FOX SPORTS

Gaining traction at second base Gonzalez will start at second base and bat ninth in Sunday's game against the Tigers.

Impact Gonzalez will man the keystone for the sixth time in seven games and may have emerged as the primary replacement at the position while Elvis Andrus (oblique) is on the shelf. Hanser Alberto had missed a good chunk of those games while missing a shoulder injury of his own, but since he returned to action Friday, he didn't play second base Saturday and won't on Sunday either. After sitting out Saturday's game entirely, Alberto will be filling in for a resting Yoan Moncada at third base in the series finale.

MAY 28, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Making most of playing time Gonzalez went 1-for-3 with a double, two RBI and a run scored Wednesday against the Guardians.

Impact Gonzalez has started each of the White Sox's last four games with Hanser Alberto (shoulder) sidelined and Elvis Andrus (oblique) on the injured list. He's collected five hits across 15 at-bats in that span, tallying six RBI, two runs scored and a stolen base. For the season, Gonzalez is still hitting just .200, and he's almost certain to lose playing time when either Alberto or Andrus can return.

MAY 25, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Gets fourth straight start Gonzalez will start at second base and bat eighth in Wednesday's game against the Guardians.

Impact Gonzalez will pick up a fourth consecutive start, including his third straight at the keystone while Hanser Alberto (shoulder) has been banged up. The White Sox haven't revealed whether Alberto will require a trip to the 10-day injured list, but even if that's the case, Gonzalez may not be in store for a long-term run as an everyday player. Elvis Andrus (oblique) is expected to head out on a rehab assignment next week and could be ready to return from the IL within the first week of June to reclaim duties as Chicago's primary second baseman.

MAY 24, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Steals second bag Gonzalez went 3-for-3 with one triple, two RBI, one run scored and one steal in Sunday's 5-2 victory over the Royals.

Impact Gonzalez drew the start at shortstop for the White Sox on Sunday and collected a trio of hits. His performance was highlighted by a two-RBI triple in the fifth inning off Max Castillo that plated Gavin Sheets and Clint Frazier that gave Chicago the lead. Sunday's outing was Gonzalez's first multi-hit performance in 2023 while his stolen base was his first since April 9. Though Gonzalez may have earned himself some more opportunities moving forward after Sunday's contest, he shouldn't be considered in most formats given his .195/.190/.293 slash line this season.

Activated Saturday Gonzalez (shoulder) was activated from the 10-day injured list Saturday.

Impact Elvis Andrus was placed on the IL with an oblique strain, so there could be at-bats available at the keystone over the next couple weeks. However, Hanser Alberto is starting over Gonzalez on Saturday.
