Danny Mendick Stats

The Chicago White Sox placed infielder Danny Mendick (knee) and outfielder Adam Engel (hamstring) on the 10-day injured list on Thursday. Mendick will miss the rest of the season with a torn ACL in his right knee, while Engel is sidelined with a strained right hamstring. The White Sox selected infielder Lenyn Sosa's contract from Double-A Birmingham and moved outfielder Eloy Jimenez (hamstring) to the 60-day IL in corresponding moves. Mendick injured his knee during a collision on Wednesday, and it's a shame since he was hitting .289/.343/.443 with three home runs and 15 RBI in 31 games for the Pale Hose. With Engel sidelined, both AJ Pollock and Adam Haseley should see more playing time moving forward.

Chicago White Sox second baseman Danny Mendick (knee) is slated for an MRI. He exited Wednesday's game against the Toronto Blue Jays early due to right knee discomfort. The 28-year-old went 1-for-1 before being removed from the game during a collision in the second inning. The White Sox utility player was finding his groove at the plate and had collected a hit in 11 of the last 12 games, including two home runs and nine RBI during that stretch. Mendick is considered day-to-day, and more if timeline will be known once the MRI results are in.

Chicago White Sox utility player Danny Mendick and relief pitcher Ryan Burr were optioned to Triple-A on Friday, the team announced on Twitter. The moves were made to open up space on the roster for newly acquired second baseman Cesar Hernandez and relief pitcher Ryan Tepera. Neither Mendick nor Burr had much in the way of fantasy value this year, as Mendick was slashing .195/.302/.266 over 58 games, while Burr was 2-1 with a 2.95 ERA, 1.078 WHIP and 20.2 percent strikeout rate over 21 1/3 innings of work. There's no reason either player should remain rostered in any format.
