Blue Jays Acquire Lenyn Sosa From White Sox
The Toronto Blue Jays announced on Monday that they have acquired infielder Lenyn Sosa from the Chicago White Sox in exchange for outfielder Jordan Rich and a player to be named later or cash considerations, according to Keegan Matheson of MLB.com. In a corresponding move, the Blue Jays moved right-hander Shane Bieber (elbow) to the 60-day injured list. Sosa, 26, got off to a rough start to the 2026 campaign in Chicago with a .212 batting average (7-for-33) with no homers, three RBI, two runs scored, no walks, and seven strikeouts in 12 games played. However, he led the White Sox with a career-high 22 home runs in 544 plate appearances and 140 games played in 2025 in his fourth year in the big leagues. It's unclear exactly what Sosa's role will be in Toronto long-term, but at least initially, he could play regularly for the Blue Jays while designated hitter George Springer (toe) is on the 10-day injured list with a fractured toe. Sosa's power upside at the second position makes him interesting in a hitter-friendly home park, at least for the short term in his new digs.
