White Sox Activate Shane Smith from Injured List for Start vs Angels
The Chicago White Sox have reinstated rookie right-handed pitcher Shane Smith from the 15-day injured list and will start him in their series opener against the Los Angeles Angels. Smith, 25, had been sidelined with a left ankle sprain suffered during the All-Star break and has not required a rehab assignment, returning directly to the major league rotation. Prior to his injury, Smith posted a 4.26 ERA with 81 strikeouts over 18 starts, earning an AL All-Star selection despite a mixed record. The White Sox are expected to monitor his pitch count closely in his first start back, as he threw only 55 pitches in a recent bullpen session. Alongside Smith's return, the team also added outfielder Corey Julks from Triple-A Charlotte and optioned Will Robertson back to Triple-A. Julks has shown promise this season with a .295 batting average and 10 home runs in the minors, while Robertson has struggled offensively during his limited major league appearances.
