Benintendi went 2-for-5 with a triple, a walk, an RBI and a run scored Friday against the Tigers.
EDGE Analysis
Benintendi delivered an RBI triple in the second inning and added a single later in the game to tally his first multi-hit game in his last eight starts. Though he has still yet to homer this season, Benintendi has shown some ability to hit for extra bases of late, racking up six doubles and a triple across his last 13 games. Even with that stretch, he has a .085 ISO for the season and has provided fantasy value mostly through his volume of plate appearances.

Benintendi went 2-for-4 with a double, an RBI and a run scored Wednesday against the Guardians.
EDGE Analysis
Benintendi led off the fifth inning and came around to score to account for the majority of his production. The effort marked his fourth multi-hit performance in his last six starts, though that hasn't led to counting stats as he has only one RBI and two runs scored in that span. The story of his season is similar, as Benintendi is hitting .277 but with only 10 RBI and 21 runs scored across 40 games.

Benintendi went 2-for-3 with a double, a walk and a stolen base Saturday against the Astros.
EDGE Analysis
Benintendi didn't have the counting stats to show for it, but he was a driver of Chicago's offense Saturday. The majority of his production came in the seventh inning, when he earned a walk and proceeded to steal second base -- his fifth stolen bag of the season. Though he now has three multi-hit efforts in his last seven starts, Benintendi still has a subpar .284 wOBA and 77 wRC+ across 156 plate appearances on the season.

Benintendi went 2-for-6 with a double, two RBI and three runs scored Sunday against the Reds.
EDGE Analysis
Benintendi played his part in a 17-run outburst for the White Sox, with the majority of his damage coming on a two-RBI single in the second inning. He's riding a six-game hitting streak, during which he has gone for 6-for-27 with four RBI and four runs scored. Overall, Benintendi has an underwhelming 77 wRC+ and .283 wOBA across 133 plate appearances for the season.

Benintendi (elbow) is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rays.
EDGE Analysis
It'll be the second straight absence for Benintendi after he was hit by a pitch in the elbow during Friday's contest. The initial X-rays came back negative, and the 28-year-old will also have Monday's team off day to aid in his recovery before potentially missing more time. Gavin Sheets will move to left field Sunday while Oscar Colas starts in right.

Benintendi wasn't feeling well after getting hit in the elbow by a pitch in Friday's game, but X-rays were negative, James Fegan of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
This explains why he is out of the lineup against righty Yonny Chirinos in Saturday's game. Benintendi went 1-for-4 and was plunked by Pete Fairbanks in the second game of the four-game series. Adam Haseley is starting in left field Saturday and Fegan reports Benintendi could return Sunday.

Benintendi went 1-for-4 with two stolen bases in Friday's 3-2 loss to the Rays.
EDGE Analysis
The 28-year-old did his best to generate some offense from the top of the order. With the score tied 2-2 in the seventh inning, Benintendi singled and swiped second base, then got hit by a pitch in the ninth with the White Sox down by a run and got himself into scoring position once again. The steals were his first since April 8, and he's still looking for his first homer of 2023, but Benintendi has maintained a decent fantasy floor by batting .281 through 24 games with 13 runs scored and four stolen bases.

Benintendi went 2-for-4 with two walks and an RBI in Friday's 8-7 loss to the Rays.
EDGE Analysis
The 28-year-old kept the line moving from the leadoff spot, but the three hitters behind him went a combined 2-for-14 and couldn't bring him around. Benintendi is enjoying a solid start to his White Sox tenure, slashing .286/.342/.343 through 17 games, and while he's still looking for his first home run of the year, he does have two steals, five RBI and 11 runs.
