2024 Fantasy Outlook
Sosa hasn't done much in his cups of coffee to date. He was called up early last season after getting off to a blistering start at Triple-A Charlotte, and the infielder homered in his first start of the season with the White Sox. However, his audition only lasted a couple weeks, and he would go on to spend most of the summer months in the minors. Despite the White Sox being in the cellar, Sosa didn't get the call for good until Aug. 18. He hit .250/.277/.438 with five home runs in 103 plate appearances from that point onward. He did not steal a single base between levels and is not much of a runner, but regardless the 24-year-old is in the running for a roster spot out of camp. While he has an option remaining, Sosa doesn't seem to have much left to prove at Triple-A, so opportunity should eventually present itself on what projects to be a second-division club.

Sent to minors
The White Sox optioned Sosa to Triple-A Charlotte on Monday.
ANALYSIS
When he was called up from Charlotte on April 6, Sosa looked on track to fill in as the White Sox's everyday third baseman in place of the injured Yoan Moncada (adductor), but the 24-year-old stuck around with the big club for just over two weeks. The writing was likely on the wall for Sosa's demotion after he had started in just two of Chicago's last five games. The White Sox selected infielder Danny Mendick's contract from Charlotte on Monday, and he appears to be the next man up to fill in at third base until Moncada returns.

How does Lenyn Sosa compare to other hitters?
This section compares his stats with all batting seasons from the previous three seasons (minimum 400 plate appearances)*. The bar represents the player's percentile rank. For example, if the bar is halfway across, then the player falls into the 50th percentile for that stat and it would be considered average.
* Exit Velocity and Barrels/PA % are benchmarked against 2019 data (min 400 PA) and Hard Hit Rate is benchmarked against last season's data (min 400 PA). See here for more exit velocity/barrels stats plus an explanation of current limitations with that data set.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Opportunity for playing time?
Sosa may have a chance at consistent playing time after Yoan Moncada suffered an adductor strain during Tuesday's game against the Guardians.
ANALYSIS
Sosa started at the keystone Tuesday but shifted over to third base once Moncada exited with the injury. The severity of the issue remains unclear, but Sosa is a strong candidate to fill in at the hot corner should Moncada miss any time. However, Sosa may need to show some improvement before fantasy managers invest, given his .572 OPS in 52 big-league games last year.

2023 Fantasy Outlook
Sosa broke out in 2022, going from waiver-wire fodder in most dynasty leagues to an upper-level producer who might hit enough to play every day. He hit .315/.369/.511 with 23 home runs, a 15.5 K% and 7.3 BB% in 119 games across Double-A and Triple-A as a 22-year-old. Sosa gets by more on contact ability than pitch recognition, so he will probably need to hit for a fairly high average to play regularly. He can play strong defense at second base, which is his likely fit with the White Sox. Sosa struggled in 36 MLB plate appearances, but he should get a chance to be a utility player at some point in 2023 and if he performs, he could find more playing time.
