Chicago White Sox outfielder AJ Pollock (hamstring) is expected to be back with the team on Friday ahead of this weekend's three-game series against the Twins in Minnesota. The 34-year-old has been sidelined since the first weekend of the season due to a hamstring strain. The timing of his return is fortunate for the team as Luis Robert (groin) suffered a groin injury on Thursday and appears likely to miss at least a few games.

Chicago White Sox outfielder AJ Pollock (hamstring) is slated to begin a rehab assignment soon according to his manager Tony La Russa. He is close to "80 to 85 percent", so a return before the end of April seems to be in the cards for the 34-year-old barring any setbacks. Pollock was placed on the IL on April 10 with a hamstring strain after getting off to a 4-for-7 start in two games as the team's leadoff hitter. Tim Anderson has since returned to the top of the Pale Hose lineup, but Pollock will slide somewhere in the middle of the order upon his return where he should put up sturdy fantasy numbers as long as he is on the field.

The Chicago White Sox placed starting pitcher Lucas Giolito (abdomen) and outfielder AJ Pollock (hamstring) on the injured list on Tuesday. Giolito was expected to land on the injured list after suffering an abdominal strain in his season debut against the Detroit Tigers last Friday, but he at least struck out six in four scoreless innings for his fantasy managers. The 27-year-old will miss at least two starts, but he could return later this month. Jimmy Lambert could step into Giolito's rotation spot until he returns. Pollock strained his right hamstring in Saturday's game and will miss at least 10 days. Adam Engel, Gavin Sheets and Leury Garcia are all candidate to see more work in the corner outfield while Pollock is on the shelf.

Chicago White Sox outfielder AJ Pollock (hamstring) is out of the starting lineup on Sunday after he was forced to leave the game on Saturday in the third inning with right hamstring tightness. Pollock doesn't think the injury is serious, but it remains to be seen when he'll get back onto the field. Adam Engel will take over in right field on Sunday and is hitting seventh against Detroit Tigers left-hander Tarik Skubal. Pollock was off to a strong start in his first two games with the White Sox before his injury on Saturday, going 4-for-7 with a double, RBI and a run scored. His fantasy managers will be hoping he misses only one game and gets back into the lineup for the White Sox's next outing.

Chicago White Sox outfielder AJ Pollock (hamstring) exited Saturday's game against the Detroit Tigers early with tightness in his right hamstring. He initially injured his hamstring, making the turn around first base after registering a single. The 34-year-old has been ruled out for the game and is considered day-to-day. Pollock was scheduled to take some time off early next week as the White Sox planned on placing the outfielder on the paternity list following the series against the Tigers. Andrew Vaughn replaced him in the game. If Pollock misses an extended period, Vaughn, Gavin Sheets, and Adam Engel should see an uptick in playing time. Stay tuned for further updates.

Chicago White Sox manager Tony La Russa said outfielder AJ Pollock would be placed on the paternity list following Sunday's series finale against the Detroit Tigers. He will be available for the weekend series but will be away from the team for three days starting early next week. The 34-year-old went 3-for-5 with a double, an RBI, and a run scored in Friday's extra-inning loss to the Tigers. Gavin Sheets and Adam Engel should see an uptick in at-bats while Pollock is away from the team.

The Chicago White Sox acquired outfielder AJ Pollock from the Los Angeles Dodgers on Friday in exchange for relief pitcher Craig Kimbrel, according to a source. Pollock will be leaving the best team in baseball, but the trade to the Windy City might actually be better for his playing time, especially if Andrew Vaughn (hip) isn't ready for the start of the regular season. The 34-year-old slashed an impressive .297/.355/.536 with an .892 OPS, a career-high-tying 21 home runs, 69 RBI, 53 runs scored and nine stolen bases in 422 plate appearances over 117 games last year in LA. Injuries have been a problem in his career, but if he stays healthy, Pollock should see steady playing time with the Pale Hose and will be a more attractive late-round target in a more hitter-friendly ballpark.

Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder AJ Pollock was scratched from Monday's spring lineup due to general body soreness, according to manager Dave Roberts. The Dodgers aren't taking any chances in the Cactus League, especially with a player that has an extensive injury history. The 34-year-old should be just fine and will likely be back in the lineup in a day or two. Injuries and playing time have held him back a bit in fantasy with the Dodgers the last few seasons, but he hit a solid .297/.355/.536 with a career-high-tying 21 home runs, 69 RBI, 53 runs scored and nine stolen bases in 422 plate appearances over 117 games last year. With the designated hitter now in play in the National League, Pollock should be on the field more often than not, making him a potential value pick if he stays healthy.

There's a good chance we see him make an appearance as a pinch-hitter in a crucial Game 4 for the Dodgers.

He's only a streaming candidate in deeper leagues on Saturday.

The Dodgers outfield isn't quite as clogged as usual right now with Cody Bellinger (ribs) on the injured list and Chris Taylor (neck) dealing with neck soreness, so Pollock should be in the lineup just about every day going forward.
