Meidroth (shoulder) is leading off and playing shortstop Saturday against the Marlins, Vinnie Duber of AllCHGO.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Meidroth was a late scratch for Friday's matchup due to right shoulder soreness. However, he'll immediately return to take over his customary role as the White Sox's leadoff hitter.

Meidroth was scratched from the lineup ahead of Friday's game against Miami due to right shoulder soreness.
EDGE Analysis
The White Sox are labelling Meidroth as day-to-day, so it doesn't seem like he's at risk of missing an extended amount of time. Jacob Amaya replaced Meidroth in the lineup Friday and would be the likely choice to start at shortstop if the latter needs to sit out any more games.

Meidroth was a late scratch from Friday's lineup against the Marlins.
EDGE Analysis
Everybody moves up one spot, and Jacob Amaya slides in at the bottom of the order at shortstop. Meidroth is slashing .245/.355/.264 with just one double, two RBI, nine runs scored and three stolen bases across his first 62 big-league plate appearances.

Meidroth is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Royals.
EDGE Analysis
Meidroth had a costly dropped popup in Tuesday's 4-3 loss, although it's not clear whether that's the reason he's not starting Wednesday. Jacob Amaya will fill in at shortstop and bat ninth for the White Sox, while Joshua Palacios has been elevated to the leadoff spot in Meidroth's absence.

Meidroth went 1-for-4 with a double, a walk and two runs scored Thursday against the Brewers.
EDGE Analysis
Meidroth was in the lineup for the first time since April 20 after being forced to the injured list with a thumb injury. He immediately slotted into the leadoff role and began the first frame with a double before coming around to score. Meidroth has split time between second base and shortstop since being promoted April 11, but he should have a near everyday role.

The White Sox activated Meidroth (thumb) from the 10-day injured list Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Meidroth will skip a rehab assignment and rejoin Chicago's active roster following a minimum 10-day absence. The rookie infielder will be back in the leadoff spot and starting at shortstop Thursday against the Brewers.

Meidroth (thumb) could return during the White Sox's upcoming weekend series against the Astros, MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Meidroth landed on the injured list April 21 due to right thumb inflammation. There have been very few updates about his recovery, though everything appears in line for him to return in short order. It's also unclear if he'll engage in a short rehab assignment prior to activation.

The White Sox placed Meidroth on the 10-day injured list Monday with right thumb inflammation.
EDGE Analysis
Meidroth had to be scratched from Sunday's lineup due to the injury. He revealed Monday that it's something he's been dealing with for a few weeks, dating back to when he was still at Triple-A Charlotte, per Scott Merkin of MLB.com. It's unclear how long he might be sidelined. Chicago is likely to use Jacob Amaya and Lenyn Sosa as its primary middle infielders while Meidroth is sidelined.

Meidroth (thumb) remains out of the lineup for Monday's game in Boston.
EDGE Analysis
Meidroth had to be scratched from Sunday's lineup due to right thumb inflammation. He did appear as a defensive replacement Sunday, so it appears swinging a bat is the biggest issue for him. The White Sox have Jacob Amaya at shortstop and Lenyn Sosa at second base in Monday's series finale.

Meidroth (thumb) entered Sunday's game against the Red Sox as a defensive replacement in the eighth inning.
EDGE Analysis
Meidroth was scratched from Sunday's lineup due to tight thumb inflammation, but his ability to enter the game as a defensive replacement suggests the issue is minor. He has served as the White Sox's leadoff batter in each of his last three starts and has maintained an excellent .387 on-base percentage across his first 31 plate appearances in the majors.
