Chicago White Sox starting pitcher Jimmy Lambert has been recalled to pitch in one of Monday's doubleheader contests. The 26-year-old made two appearances out of the White Sox bullpen in 2020.

Toronto Blue Jays outfielder George Springer (quad) was able to get through some outfield drills on Thursday.
