The Chicago White Sox have announced that they are placing Giolito, Anderson, Lynn, and Engel on the injured list.

Introduction

While the Chicago White Sox have welcomed back several key players from injuries, they have been compelled to place a few more on the 10-day injured list. Injuries have plagued the White Sox significantly throughout the challenging 2021 Major League Baseball season .

Significant injuries have affected the Chicago White Sox early in the season.

For much of the first half of this MLB season, the Chicago White Sox had to cope without their talented young left fielder and designated hitter, Eloy Jimenez . Jimenez suffered a torn left pectoral muscle while making an impressive defensive play at the wall, trying to snag a home run during a spring training match.

The White Sox found themselves short in the outfield as they missed their young center fielder, Luis Robert , for a considerable period. Robert sustained a hip flexor injury in early May and didn't make his way back to the White Sox lineup until early August 2021. Since both Robert and Jimenez have returned to the team, their performance at the plate has been remarkable, showcasing their hitting prowess.

Recently, the White Sox have brought back their experienced starting catcher, Yasmani Grandal , as well as key left-handed pitcher Carlos Rodon. Unfortunately, they have also seen four other essential everyday players, including shortstop Tim Anderson, outfielder Adam Engel, starting pitchers Lucas Giolito, and Lance Lynn, added to the 10-day injured list. Additionally, it appears that Rodon is currently on a day-to-day injury status.

One of the Chicago White Sox's crucial clubhouse figures and standout players, Tim Anderson , is currently out with a left hamstring strain.

The postseason is slated to kick off on Tuesday, October 5th, 2021.

"I felt a slight pull in my hamstring,\" Giolito noted. "It happened a couple of pitches after that swinging bunt play. It reminded me of the sensation when I pulled my hamstring back in 2019, though it wasn’t as severe, which is why I tried to keep going to evaluate how it felt, but it didn't hold up, leading to my exit from the game. I doubt it will be a lengthy absence. \"
