Moncada exited Tuesday's game against the Mets with right hamstring tightness, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.
EDGE Analysis
Moncada was able to leave the field under his own power and should be considered day-to-day. According to Van Schouwen, the 24-year-old was receiving attention from the athletic trainer prior to batting practice, so it looks as though he attempted to play through the issue. Ryan Goins has taken over at third base for the White Sox.

Moncada went 3-for-4 with two doubles, a home run, two runs scored and two RBI in Saturday's 5-1 win over the Twins.
EDGE Analysis
He did commit an error that led to Minnesota's only run on the night, but Moncada more than made up for the defensive gaffe at the plate. Over his last 10 games, the 24-year-old is slashing .325/.372/.700 with four homers and 10 RBI, a surge that has gotten him to the 20-HR plateau for the first time in his career.

Moncada went 1-for-4 with a home run and another run scored in Thursday's 10-3 loss to the Twins.
EDGE Analysis
Moncada got the White Sox on the board with a solo homer off Jose Berrios in the second inning for his lone hit of the night. The 24-year-old has been enjoying a breakout campaign atop the White Sox lineup, slashing .299/.356/.526 with a career-high 19 homers, 57 RBI and 56 runs scored.

Moncada slotted in as the cleanup hitter Monday and went 2-for-4 with a home run and four RBI in a 9-1 win over the Marlins.
EDGE Analysis
Moncada singled in a run in the first inning then bashed his career-high 18th homer two at-bats later to give Chicago a 7-1 lead. He entered the game with just 13 plate appearances batting fourth in the order, all coming in 2017. White Sox manager Rick Renteria, understanding his team is unlikely to make the playoffs, told Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times that the team is the "discovery zone" right now. "We're starting to see some of these guys in different positions, see what they're going to be able to do," said the manager. If Moncada continues to bat cleanup, he'll be in a better position to drive in runs. He has 56 RBI, five shy of the career-best 61 set in 2018.

Moncada went 3-for-5 with a double and two RBI in Friday's win over the Rays.
EDGE Analysis
Moncada drove home a run in the second inning with a double to right field, and he'd tack on an insurance run in the fourth inning on a single to left. The 24-year-old third baseman is now 10-for-33 since the All-Star break, and he's delivered back-to-back three-hit performances heading into the second matchup of the series Saturday.

Moncada went 3-for-5 with a solo home run and two runs scored Thursday against the Royals.
EDGE Analysis
Moncada took Brad Keller deep in the third inning to record his 17th home run of the season. He hadn't homered since July 3 and has seen a downturn in his power production, with the long ball representing just his fifth extra-base hit for the month. He's remained productive nonetheless, scoring eight runs and driving in six across 11 starts. Moncada is now hitting .303/.361/.529 across 367 plate appearances this season.

Moncada went 2-for-3 with two doubles, two walks, an RBI and two runs scored in Saturday's 6-3 loss to the Cubs.
EDGE Analysis
Moncada extended his hitting streak to 12 games, going 19-for-49 (.388) with four home runs, five doubles, a triple and nine RBI during the streak. Being more aggressive at the plate has worked out well for Moncada, who has a .909 OPS while reducing his K% to 27.7, down from 33.4 last season.

Moncada went 2-for-5 with two home runs and three RBI in the second game of Wednesday's doubleheader against the Tigers.
EDGE Analysis
Moncada became the 10th player in franchise history to go yard from both sides of the plate in the same game. He got the White Sox on the board in the first inning with a solo shot from the right side of the plate, then hit a game-tying homer in the 10th inning from the left. In between, he knocked in a third run via a sacrifice fly. He now has 16 homers on the season, one shy of the career high he posted in 2018. The third baseman has hit safely in all four games since returning from a knee injury.
