Romy Gonzalez Stats

Chicago White Sox second baseman Romy Gonzalez could get the starting nod in right field on Opening Day on Thursday against the Houston Astros and left-hander Framber Valdez with Eloy Jimenez serving as the designated hitter. Oscar Colas is another option to get the nod with a left-hander on the hill. The 26-year-old Gonzalez hit just .222 (10-for-45) in 20 Cactus League games this spring, but he also had five home runs and 10 RBI and performed well against left-handed pitching in just 32 games played for the White Sox in 2022 in his second major-league season. Colas will be the Pale Hose's regular right fielder against right-handed pitchers to open the 2023 season.

Chicago White Sox general manager Rick Hahn stated Tuesday that Romy Gonzalez and Lenyn Sosa are the team's leading candidates as internal options to start at second base, per Chicago Sun Times' Daryl Van Schouwen. Hahn also mentioned veteran Leury Garcia as a backup. Gonzalez had a poor 2022 season at the plate, slashing just .238/.257/.352 with two home runs and 11 RBI in 109 plate appearances. Sosa had a very successful season across Double-A Birmingham and Triple-A Charlotte, but he only saw 36 plate appearances at the big-league level. Hahn did mention that it is possible that the White Sox could look outside of the organization for the position, but while neither Gonzalez nor Sosa inspire much fantasy confidence at this time, Sosa's success in the minors makes him a more intriguing fantasy option.
