Benintendi is out of the starting lineup for Sunday's series finale against the Orioles.
EDGE Analysis
Benintendi will get a rest Sunday after starting in each of the first three games of the series, going 1-for-10 with two RBI and three walks. The 29-year-old has endured a dismal May, slashing .141/.195/.183 over 20 games.

Benintendi went 0-for-4 with a stolen base Friday against the Orioles.
EDGE Analysis
Benintendi has hit just .145 across 19 games in May and is hitless in five of his last seven starts. He did manage to swipe his second bag of the season, though that's hardly a consolation given his .183/.213/.263 line across 183 plate appearances for the season.

Benintendi went 3-for-5 with a pair of home runs and six RBI in Saturday's extra-inning win over the Rays.
EDGE Analysis
Benintendi's huge game came out of nowhere -- not only were the two long balls his first two of the campaign, but the multi-hit effort was his first such performance since April 15. The veteran outfielder's power had dropped off dramatically in recent seasons, as he swatted just 10 home runs over 277 contests across 2022 and 2023. Saturday's performance was the sixth multi-homer effort of Benintendi's career, and his six RBI tied a career high, while the walk-off blast was his first as a major-leaguer.

Benintendi is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Twins.
EDGE Analysis
Benintendi will head to the bench for the second time in the four-game series in Minnesota as the White Sox hand Robbie Grossman a start in left field. Though he's produced a .395 OPS through 88 plate appearances on the season, Benintendi's role still appears fairly secure while he's in the second season of a five-year, $75 million contract.

Benintendi is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Twins.
EDGE Analysis
Benintendi went 1-for-13 during the White Sox's series with the Phillies over the weekend, bringing his batting average down to .158 for the season. Given that he's in the second season of a five-year, $75 million deal, Benintendi likely isn't in any danger of losing out on everyday role, but he could find himself outside of the lineup on a more frequent basis if he's unable to stage a turnaround in the near future.
