June 28: OF Dominic Fletcher (left shoulder strain) sent to Arizona Complex League on rehab assignment
The 26-year-old outfielder suffered a left shoulder strain making a home run-saving catch in Milwaukee on June 2 and has been on the injured list retroactive to June 3. He's hitting .173 with six RBIs in 28 games for the White Sox.

"Anytime I’m out there, I feel like I want to do my best to try to keep us in a game or save some runs, wherever I can," said Fletcher of his injury-causing catch during a recent interview. "I take pride in that out there and being able to make a play like that was pretty cool. Obviously the lasting effects kind of suck."

10-DAY/15-DAY INJURED LIST

RHP Mike Clevinger (right elbow inflammation, neck stiffness)
Expected return: July
Clevinger made two injury rehab starts with Triple-A Charlotte, but was recalled from his rehab assignment on June 26 with neck stiffness. Clevinger hopes to make one more injury rehab start for Triple-A Charlotte, either on July 2 or 3, and then rejoin the White Sox.

"This little break and the cortisone shot and now I don’t have to worry about that anymore," Clevinger said. "I'm hopeful this is going to be the last one of these things. But it happens. Unfortunately, it’s happened to me the last couple of years. Hopefully, this is the last one."

"I don’t think it’s going to be too long," White Sox manager Pedro Grifol said. "He’s going to come back here and get worked on. But it’s not something that we feel is going to cause a lot more [missed] time." (Last updated: June 28)

Expected return: Shortly after the All-Star break
Manager Pedro Grifol said on June 23 that barring setbacks, Moncada should begin game action with the Rookie-level ACL White Sox shortly. Moncada could rejoin Chicago in the beginning of the second half.

"I saw a video of Moncada on [June 21], and he looked great," Grifol said. "He's running really good, running the bases really good. ... "He's doing everything except playing right now, and I think he's going to start playing pretty soon."
