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 went 1-for-1 with an RBI as a pinch hitter in Friday's 8-6 extra-inning win over the Cubs.
EDGE Analysis
Sheets delivered what turned out to be the game-winning run with a 10th-inning, pinch-hit single for Seby Zavala. He's been a great help to the White Sox while they managed several outfield injuries, knocking six home runs and driving in 16 over 28 games, but his days on the roster could be numbered. Luis Robert (hip) is expected to be reinstated following the weekend, and Sheets is a prime candidate to lose his roster spot.

Sheets will sit Friday against the Cubs.
EDGE Analysis
Sheets finds himself on the bench for the third time in four games. It's possible he sits for the next two games as well, as the White Sox will be without a designated hitter at Wrigley Field. Jose Abreu starts at first base Friday, with Eloy Jimenez and Andrew Vaughn patrolling the outfield corners.
