Alejandro De Aza went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Friday's loss to the Angels.

De Aza tagged Ervin Santana for a leadoff home run, but the Sox ended up scoring only one more run in a 6-2 setback. The bomb was just De Aza's ninth of the season, though three have come in September. Arbitration eligible, the .281/.345/.414 hitting De Aza will almost certainly be back in center field for the Sox next season.

Alejandro De Aza (ribs) will resume baseball activities Monday.

De Aza was placed on the disabled list this week with what was termed as a bruised left ribcage. The next step will largely depend on how his ribs respond to the increased activity on Monday. As such, he's no lock to return when he's first eligible. Dewayne Wise should continue to handle starting duties in center field during his absence.

White Sox placed OF Alejandro De Aza on the 15-day disabled list, retroactive to August 18, with bruised left ribs.

De Aza has dealt with pain in his back and oblique, but the White Sox are calling it a rib injury. These type of injuries can be particularly tricky, so he may not be ready to return when he's first eligible. Dewayne Wise and Jordan Danks will split playing time in center field during De Aza's absence.
