The Chicago White Sox expect to receive a jolt to their lineup on Wednesday.
Whether that helps Chicago solve the visiting Kansas City Royals and end a five-game skid remains to be seen.
Manager Tony La Russa on Tuesday said there’s a "good chance" catcher Yasmani Grandal (strained left knee) would be activated from the injured list Wednesday as the White Sox continue a three-game series against the Royals. Meanwhile, center fielder Luis Robert (wrist) is "getting his strength back," La Russa said, and remains day-to-day.
On deck: an update on the manager himself. La Russa, 77, spoke with reporters before Tuesday’s 9-7 loss to Kansas City, but the White Sox announced about an hour before first pitch he would miss the game with an undisclosed health issue.
