Gonzalez (shoulder) was transferred to the 60-day disabled list Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Gonzalez has been sidelined since April 23 with right rotator cuff inflammation. He was recently shut down from throwing after suffering what the White Sox deemed a minor setback, and his placement on the 60-day DL assures he'll be sidelined until at least June 19. It also frees up a spot on the 40-man roster, which the White Sox used to claim Dustin Garneau off waivers.

Gonzalez (shoulder) will be shut down from all throwing activities for 10-to-14 days, James Fegan of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Gonzalez recently suffered a "little setback" during his recovery from right rotator cuff inflammation. The right-hander will likely need more time building his arm back up once he's able to resume a throwing program, so don't expect to see him back in the majors until mid-June.

Manager Rick Renteria said Gonzalez (shoulder) suffered a "little setback" Friday, but the right-hander will try and resume throwing Tuesday, Scott Merkin of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Gonzalez has been working his way back from right rotator cuff inflammation that warranted a place on the DL following his start against Oakland on April 17. He will need some time to build his arm back up before going out on a minor-league rehab assignment, so don't expect to see Gonzalez back on a major-league mound until the end of May, at the earliest.

Gonzalez (shoulder) threw a simulated game Tuesday, Andy Masur of WGN Radio 720 reports.
EDGE Analysis
Gonzalez has been able to steadily increase his level of activity recently, as he threw a bullpen session Sunday and was able to throw a simulated game two days later. It's unclear when Gonzalez will be ready to return from the disabled list, although manager Rick Renteria recently said that he will likely need to go on a rehab assignment.

Gonzalez (shoulder) is scheduled to throw a bullpen session Sunday, James Fegan of The Athletic Chicago reports.
EDGE Analysis
Gonzalez was able to throw long toss the past two days with no issues, clearing the way for him to throw his first bullpen session since landing on the disabled list with rotator cuff inflammation in the second half of April. He remains without a timetable for his return, but manager Rick Renteria mentioned that the right-hander will probably require a minor-league rehab stint before rejoining the White Sox, which suggests his return isn't imminent.

Gonzalez was placed on the 10-day disabled list Monday with right rotator cuff inflammation.
EDGE Analysis
It's unclear when the issue cropped or how long it will keep Gonzalez sidelined at this point, but he'll be forced to miss his scheduled start against the Mariners on Monday at the very least as a result. Carson Fulmer will step in to start in place of Gonzalez on Monday, while Chris Beck was promoted to the big club to provide an additional bullpen arm. The 33-year-old held an unsightly 12.41 ERA and 2.43 WHIP across 12.1 innings prior to landing on the shelf.

Manager Rick Renteria said it's too soon to ask if Gonzalez is pitching for his job when he is expected to take the mound Monday against Seattle, Steve Greenberg of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.
EDGE Analysis
Renteria has a point. After all, it's just three games into the season, but the 33-year-old Gonzalez was expected to be a glue guy in a rotation packed with young starters. The right-hander is coming off a start, in which the Athletics ran him off after three innings and eight runs, that he termed as "a tough one to swallow." The most likely replacement for Gonzalez if Renteria does make a change is Hector Santiago, a 30-year-old veteran with major league experience as a starter.

Gonzalez (0-3) was blown up for eight earned runs on eight hits in Tuesday's 10-2 loss to Oakland, striking out one and walking two over just three innings.
EDGE Analysis
The right-hander took his third straight loss to start the campaign and he has yet to go deeper than five innings or give up less than four runs in any of those starts. He's off the fantasy radar and he might not be long for a spot in the White Sox rotation either.

Manager Rick Renteria said that Gonzalez will start Tuesday's game against the Athletics, Scott Merkin of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Gonzalez was originally scheduled to pitch Saturday's contest, but the game was postponed. As a result, he'll be delayed to Tuesday, where he lines up to face Trevor Cahill in the second game of the series.

Gonzalez's rotation turn may be skipped this weekend, as Reynaldo Lopez has been named the starter Sunday in Minnesota.
EDGE Analysis
It's easy to see why the White Sox would prefer to give Lopez the ball instead of Gonzalez, whose start Saturday was postponed due to poor weather. Gonzalez has allowed nine earned runs in 9.1 innings through two starts and is not a long-term piece. The White Sox won't need a fifth starter again until April 24, so Gonzalez could be temporarily moved to the bullpen.
