White Sox's Jacob Gonzalez: Three more RBI in Tuesday's win
Rotowire
Gonzalez went 3-for-5 with two doubles, a run scored and three RBI in Tuesday's 9-3 win over the Orioles.
The rookie infielder drove in three runs for a second straight game as he enjoys his trip to Baltimore, and Gonzalez has erupted for 12 total RBI in the last five contests. Since making his big-league debut May 31, Gonzalez has delivered a .260/.341/.397 slash line with two homers, 11 runs and 17 RBI in 24 games.

White Sox's Jacob Gonzalez: Plates three in win
Rotowire
Gonzalez went 2-for-4 with a double, three RBI and two runs scored in Monday's 8-2 win over Baltimore.
The White Sox fell into an early 1-0 hole, but Gonzalez got his team on the board in the top of the third with an RBI double. He would strike again in the ninth to tack on a pair of insurance runs, doing so with a single to center field. Gonzalez has delivered key run production for his club lately, tallying nine RBI over his last four games. The 24-year-old should continue to see his name in the starting nine while swinging a hot bat, at least until Munetaka Murakami (hamstring) is cleared to return from the 10-day injured list.

White Sox's Jacob Gonzalez: Exiting starting nine
Rotowire
Gonzalez is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Guardians.
Gonzalez will head to the bench while the White Sox go with Miguel Vargas and Colson Montgomery as their starters in the corner infield Monday. Since being called up from Triple-A Charlotte on May 30, the left-handed-hitting Gonzalez has mostly been spared from matchups with left-handed pitching but has still struggled to a .167/.273/.229 slash line over 55 plate appearances. Gonzalez will likely be headed back to Charlotte once Munetaka Murakami (hamstring) is ready to return from the injured list.
