Jackson (oblique) was activated from the minor-league injured list Thursday.

Jackson missed over six weeks while dealing with an oblique strain, and he's played in only four contests so far this season. Since returning from the injury, the 22-year-old has gone 0-for-4 with two walks, three strikeouts, two runs and a stolen base across two games.

Gorman went 4-for-4 with a solo home run, a double, four RBI and three runs in Saturday's 8-3 win over the Brewers.

Gorman went off in this one. First he ripped a solo homer off Adrian Houser in the first inning, notching home run No. 1 of his MLB career. He then notched an RBI single in the third and a two-RBI double in the fourth before securing another single in the sixth frame. Coming into Saturday, Gorman had gone 0-for-11 in his prior four contests, but the four-hit effort raised his batting average to .360, and he now has a homer, seven runs and five RBI over his first 25 at-bats in the big-leagues.

Estrada isn't starting Saturday against the Reds.

Estrada will be out of the lineup for a second straight game after recently drawing nine consecutive starts. Donovan Walton is starting at the keystone and batting eighth.

Mendick was recalled from Triple-A Charlotte on Saturday.

Mendick owns a career .237/.297/.348 slash line in 366 major-league plate appearances, 26 of which have come this season. He'll give the White Sox an additional option in the infield for now, though considering that it was Dallas Keuchel who was designated for assignment in a corresponding move, it's possible Mendick returns to the minors in a few days when the White Sox add another pitcher.

Rosario isn't starting Saturday against the Tigers.

Rosario was initially slated to get a day off Friday before the game was postponed, so he'll instead take a seat Saturday. Steven Kwan will start in left field while Oscar Gonzalez takes over in right.

Kemp isn't starting Saturday against the Rangers.

Kemp went just 1-for-4 with a run and two strikeouts Friday, and he'll be out of the lineup for the third time in the last four games. Sheldon Neuse will start at second base while Chad Pinder takes over in left field.

Brujan isn't starting Saturday against the Yankees, Neil Solondz of the Rays Radio Network reports.

Brujan started the last three games and went 2-for-9 with three strikeouts. Taylor Walls will take over at the keystone while Brett Phillips enters the lineup in right field.

Jones (elbow) was designated for assignment by the Orioles on Saturday.

Jones has been at Triple-A Norfolk to begin the season, but he underwent Tommy John surgery Friday and will likely miss the rest of the year. The 24-year-old will cede his spot on the 40-man roster but will likely remain in the organization if he goes unclaimed on waivers.

Polanco went 2-for-5 with a two-run home run and a second run scored in Friday's 10-7 win over the Royals.

Making his return from a three-game absence due to a minor ankle issue, Polanco got the Twins on the board by taking Brad Keller deep in the first inning. The infielder is slashing .237/.335/.385 on the year with five homers, two steals, 20 runs and 26 RBI through 42 games.

Lopez went 3-for-4 with a walk, a run scored, an RBI and a stolen base in Friday's 10-7 loss to the Twins.

The 27-year-old infielder appears to be regaining something close to his 2021 form. Over his last 12 games, Lopez has hit .279 (12-for-43) and notched all four of his steals on the season.
