White Sox News
After a disappointing loss to the Houston Astros, the Chicago White Sox faced Minnesota and showcased some offensive firepower with Miguel Vargas and Colson Montgomery both hitting their 30th homers of the season in a 4-1 victory. However, the celebration is tempered by the news that pitcher Ky Bush is officially shut down for the year due to a lat strain, marking another lost season for the left-hander. Meanwhile, the return of Kyle Teel from the injured list adds some depth behind the plate, but the recent loss of Luis Robert Jr. to the Orioles via waiver claim leaves a noticeable gap. With the team clinging to a slim chance at the playoffs at 73-67, every game counts, and the bats will need to stay hot against the Twins to keep hope alive.
