Andrew Benintendi of the White Sox has been placed on the ten-day injured list with a left adductor strain, following a disappointing start to the season. Despite a five-year contract worth $75 million, Benintendi's performance has been underwhelming, particularly over his first two seasons with the team. The White Sox, struggling with a 2-8 record, hope that their veteran players can build trade value; Benintendi's recent improvement in form adds significance to his recovery. His absence may not be long-term, as the injury was subsequently deemed serious enough for the IL only after a few days.
Andrew Benintendi was placed on the ten-day injured list due to a left adductor strain, impacting his ability to build trade value for the struggling White Sox.
The White Sox's decision to place Benintendi on the injured list isn't a major setback, given their 2-8 start this season and last year's poor performance.
Despite signing a five-year, $75MM contract, Benintendi struggled in the first two seasons, prompting questions about whether he can regain his strong late-season form from last year.
The White Sox are looking for veteran players like Benintendi to build trade value, as the team is not competing actively this year.
