Pollock (hamstring) was activated from the injured list Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Pollock has battled more than his fair share of injuries over the course of his career and made it just two games into his White Sox's tenure before his first absence. He'll wind up missing less than two weeks and should return to a regular role in right field. Matt Foster was placed on the bereavement list to clear a roster spot.

Pollock (hamstring) will join the White Sox in Minneapolis ahead of their weekend series against the Twins, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

Manager Tony La Russa recently said that there's a "good chance" Pollock would be reinstated from the 10-day injured list ahead of Friday's series opener. While La Russa didn't officially confirm Thursday that Pollock will be activated prior to Friday's matchup, the 34-year-old should be back on the field in the coming days following a relatively brief stint on the injured list.

White Sox manager Tony La Russa said there's a "good chance" Pollock (hamstring) returns from the 10-day injured list ahead of Friday's series opener in Minnesota, LaMond Pope of the Chicago Tribune reports.

EDGE Analysis

Though Pollock has yet to head out on a minor-league rehab assignment after he was placed on the IL on April 12, the White Sox are apparently satisfied with how his strained right hamstring has responded to workouts at the organization's spring facility in Arizona. Pollock notably took simulated at-bats Tuesday against rehabbing White Sox starter Lucas Giolito (abdomen), and both injured players could be ready to rejoin the big club at some point this weekend. Unless the White Sox reverse course and send Pollock out to a minor-league affiliate for one or two games, he'll likely continue to ramp up his workouts over the next two days before linking up with the team in Minnesota.

Manager Tony La Russa said Saturday that Pollock (hamstring) is "around 80-85 percent," James Fegan of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Pollock has been sidelined by a hamstring injury for a week, but the White Sox have remained optimistic that the outfielder will be able to return following a minimal stay on the injured list. He's expected to head to Triple-A Charlotte to make some rehab appearances soon, and it appears likely that he'll be cleared to rejoin the major-league club sometime next week.

Pollock (hamstring) has a chance to spend only 10 or 11 days on the injured list, James Fegan of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

The veteran outfielder doesn't have a strong health track record and lasted just two games with his new team before hitting the injured list with a hamstring strain. The White Sox believe the issue to be fairly minor, but Pollock is currently away from the team for the birth of his child, so the team hasn't been able to run further tests.

The White Sox placed Pollock on the 10-day injured list Tuesday with a strained right hamstring.

EDGE Analysis

Pollock's advancing age and history of lower-body injuries always made a trip to the IL a likely outcome, but the White Sox opted to wait a few days after he tweaked the hamstring in Saturday's game in Detroit before officially deactivating him. In addition to Adam Engel -- who filled in for Pollock in right field in Sunday's 10-1 win over the Tigers -- Gavin Sheets and Leury Garcia are candidates to pick up more work in the corner outfield while the veteran is sidelined.

Pollock (hamstring) is not in Sunday's lineup against the Tigers.

EDGE Analysis

Pollock suffered a hamstring injury in Saturday's matchup while making a turn around first base. Pollock stated after the game that he doesn't believe the issue will hamper him in the long term, though he will get at least one additional day to rest. Adam Engel enters the lineup in right field and will hit seventh.

Pollock believes the hamstring injury that caused him to exit Saturday's game against the Tigers to be a short-term problem, Scott Merkin of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Pollock grabbed his hamstring after rounding first base on a single, but early indications are that he's avoided a serious injury. He's expected to spend some time on the paternity list starting Monday, so while the hamstring problem could potentially cause him to miss Sunday's game, he may be ready to go by the time he's back from paternity leave.

Pollock left Saturday's game against the Tigers with a right hamstring injury after hitting a single, James Fegan of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Pollock winced after making the turn around first base and appeared to grab his hamstring. The White Sox subsequently confirmed that it was right hamstring tightness that caused his exit. The veteran outfielder is already scheduled to miss time early next week while on the paternity list, so if this is merely a day-to-day problem it may not cost him many games that he wasn't already going to miss. Pollock doesn't have the strongest health track record, however, so a longer-term problem is definitely a possibility.

Manager Tony La Russa said Saturday that Pollock will be placed on the paternity list following Sunday's series finale against the Tigers, Vinnie Duber of NBC Sports Chicago reports.

EDGE Analysis

Pollock will be available Saturday and Sunday, but he'll be away from the team next week due to the birth of his child. He'll spend 1-3 days on the list, which should lead to increased playing time for Gavin Sheets and Adam Engel.
