Chicago White Sox

Jake Rogers

C

Rogers will step away from the team for its final couple of regular-season games as he welcomes a new addition to his family, but he'll be back by the time the White Sox begin their postseason run. Until then, Drew Romo will come up from Triple-A to provide depth at catcher.

Luis Castillo

SP

Castillo posted a 7.52 ERA in six starts and then a 13.50 ERA in three relief outings after being demoted to the Chicago bullpen. The veteran right-hander will be eligible for activation during the ALDS, but considering how he's pitched, there's a good chance Castillo's season is over even if he's healthy.

Prelander Berroa

RP

Berroa has been on the injured list all season while working his way back from Tommy John surgery and a setback he suffered while pitching in the Arizona Complex League. He was cleared to resume throwing in early July, and although his progress has been slow, the White Sox haven't ruled out a return for the 26-year-old before the end of the season.

Ky Bush

SP

Bush has spent the entire season on the 60-day injured list while recovering from Tommy John surgery that he underwent in February. He was cleared to resume throwing in early July, but he has since suffered a setback that will keep him on the shelf for the rest of the 2026 season. Bush will turn his focus toward being fully healthy for the start of the 2027 campaign.

Jordan Leasure

RP

Leasure will miss the remainder of this season and likely all of next season while on the mend. Fegan notes that the right-hander hopes to be ready for spring of 2028. Leasure landed on the injured list in late May with a right flexor strain, and while he had been cleared to resume throwing side sessions at the beginning of August, it was ultimately determined that he needed to go under the knife to repair his UCL.
