Sheets is out of the lineup for Monday's game against Cleveland.
EDGE Analysis
Sheets started at either first base or designated hitter in four of the White Sox's last five games, going 2-for-12 with a run scored. His time as a near-everyday player could come to an end during the postseason, but Sheets should see steady work in the final week of the regular season with Chicago likely to rest several veterans while its playoff positioning remains locked in.

Sheets will sit Tuesday against the Tigers.
EDGE Analysis
Sheets sits after starting seven of the last eight games, a stretch in which he hit .286/.444/.571. Adam Engel (shoulder) returns from the injured list to start in right field, which could potentially cut into Sheets' playing time in the final two weeks of the season.

Sheets, who was removed from Friday's lineup prior to game time, served as a pinch hitter and stayed in to play right field in an 8-0 win over the Rangers.
EDGE Analysis
Sheets was originally scheduled to start in right field, but a last-minute lineup change had him replaced by Romy Gonzalez, who was originally set to fill in at shortstop for Tim Anderson. As it turns out, Anderson, recently reinstated from the injured list, wanted to test his hamstring on back-to-back days, so he was added to the lineup at shortstop while Gonzalez moved to right field, according to Brian Sandalow of the Chicago Sun-Times. Sheets' removal appears to have nothing to do with an injury, so he should be good to go while Andrew Vaughn (back) is unavailable.

Sheets is no longer listed in the lineup for Friday's game against the Rangers.
EDGE Analysis
Sheets was replaced in the lineup by Tim Anderson, who will start at shortstop and push Romy Gonzalez to Sheets' spot in right field. It's unclear if Sheets is dealing with an injury or if the White Sox have simply decided that Anderson is in fact ready to play every day despite previously indicating he'd be eased back into action upon his return from a hamstring injury.

Sheets started in left field and went 0-for-2 with a walk and a run scored in Friday's 4-3 win over Boston.
EDGE Analysis
Sheets made a couple of starts in the last three games and was the third man to start in left field for Eloy Jimenez, who returned as the designated hitter following a two-game absence due to a knee injury. While Jimenez was unavailable for duty in the field, Andrew Vaughn, Billy Hamilton and now Sheets started in left for the White Sox. With Jimenez back, Sheets will get fewer opportunities.

Sheets went 2-for-3 with two home runs, four RBI and a hit-by-pitch in Wednesday's win over the Pirates.
EDGE Analysis
The 25-year-old was recalled Wednesday from Triple-A Charlotte and he didn't wait long to make an impact. He launched a three-run homer in the fourth inning off of the Pirates starter Max Kranick and another solo shot in the eighth off of reliever Duane Underwood. The outfielder will likely function mostly as a bench bat for the White Sox the rest of the way but he does provide the occasional long ball, having now hit eight homers in 30 games in the majors this season.

Sheets was recalled from Triple-A Charlotte on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Sheets spent just over three weeks in the minors and slashed .303/.385/.591 with four home runs, seven doubles, 13 runs and 13 RBI across 19 games at Triple-A Charlotte after he was sent down Aug. 9. However, he'll rejoin the major-league club to provide depth since active rosters expanded Wednesday.

The White Sox optioned Sheets to Triple-A Charlotte on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
An already crowded Chicago outfield became even more packed Monday with Luis Robert (hip) coming back from the 60-day injured list, so Sheets likely wouldn't have been in store for steady at-bats had he stuck around with the big club. Since the organization still views the 25-year-old as one of its top prospects, Sheets will head to Charlotte to play on an everyday basis and continue his development as a corner outfielder after playing mostly at first base throughout his time in the minors.

Sheets is not in the lineup Sunday against the Cubs, Vinnie Duber of NBC Sports Chicago reports.
EDGE Analysis
Sheets continues to be the odd man out when the White Sox are without the services of a designated hitter in a National League park. Eloy Jimenez will receive another start in left field, pushing Andrew Vaughn to right.

Sheets isn't starting Saturday's game against the Cubs, Vinnie Duber of NBC Sports Chicago reports.
EDGE Analysis
Sheets drove in a run as a pinch hitter Saturday, but he'll head back to the bench for the fourth time in the last five games. Brian Goodwin will shift to right field while Leury Garcia starts in center.
