White Sox place INF Miguel Vargas on IL with oblique strain
ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP) — The Chicago White Sox placed infielder Miguel Vargas on the 10-day injured list on Sunday because of a left oblique strain.
Vargas, 25, was scratched from Saturday night’s 1-0 victory at the Angels. Vargas, who was acquired from the Dodgers as part of a three-team trade in July 2024, is batting .229 with 13 homers and 44 RBIs in 106 games.
The White Sox also recalled infielder Curtis Mead from Triple-A Charlotte before their series finale against the Angels. Left-hander Bryan Hudson and right-hander Elvis Peguero were claimed off waivers from Milwaukee and assigned to Charlotte.
Mead, 24, came over when the White Sox traded right-hander Adrian Houser to Tampa Bay on Thursday. He hit .226 with three homers and eight RBIs in 49 games with the Rays this year.
