Triple-A Charlotte placed Burger on its 7-day injured list Wednesday due to a bone bruise on his right hand, James Fegan of The Athletic reports.
Burger posted a strong .807 OPS over a 15-game stint with the White Sox in July before being optioned to Triple-A when the big club didn't have regular playing time available for him following Eloy Jimenez's return from the 60-day injured list. Upon returning to Charlotte, the 25-year-old third baseman played in just four games before going down with the injury. The White Sox haven't provided a timeline for Burger, but given the nature of his injury, he should have a good chance to return to action for Charlotte before the end of the minor-league season.
