The Chicago White Sox face significant injury challenges as outfielder Andrew Benintendi is set to miss four to six weeks due to a broken right hand, sustained during a spring training game. Additionally, shortstop Colson Montgomery was scratched from the lineup for precautionary reasons related to back spasms, though he reported feeling fine. Benintendi's injury is reminiscent of his 2022 hamate bone issue, while Montgomery, a key player for the team's future, aims to overcome previous injury hurdles as he strives for a starting position.
Benintendi will miss 4-6 weeks with a non-displaced fracture suffered during the first inning of the Sox' Cactus League game against the Guardians at Camelback Ranch.
Montgomery said he is fine and has 'zero concern' about his back. He felt something on a swing during batting practice and is erring on the side of caution.
