2025 Player Outlook
While Benintendi's batting average tanked to .229, which was the lowest of his career in a season where he played in at least 30 games, his 20 home runs were the most he's hit in a season since 2017 as a member of the Red Sox. His Statcast metrics rebounded closer to his career averages, and the combination of harder contact and more fly balls (first time above 30 percent since 2021) led to some increased power production. He looked much, much better after the All-Star break, but at the end of the day, Benintendi is who he is at this point. The power numbers last year are his absolute ceiling, and outside of Luis Robert Jr., who could be playing elsewhere early August, there's no strong presence in this lineup. Conservatively, give him 10-13 home runs with a .240 average and 3-6 stolen bases. Low ceiling, slightly higher but still low floor player.
Player News
Andrew Benintendi went 3-for-5 with a homer, a triple and four RBI as the White Sox topped the Mets 9-4 on Wednesday.
The homer, hit 366 feet down the right field line, was his lone hard-hit ball. It’s his first four-RBI game of the season, and the triple was his first 2023. Benintendi has started at DH and hit cleanup in all six White Sox games since he came off the IL last week. He’s 6-for-22 during that span, but he’s driven in eight runs.
Andrew Benintendi went 0-for-2 with a walk and an RBI on Friday against the Rangers in his return from the injured list.
Benintendi was back in Chicago’s lineup for the first time since early May after missing nearly three weeks recovering from a calf strain. The 30-year-old corner outfielder figures to continue batting in the middle of the White Sox’ lineup behind Miguel Vargas and Luis Robert Jr.
White Sox activated OF Andrew Benintendi off the 10-day injured list.
Benintendi missed just under three weeks while dealing with his calf strain. The former top prospect will help the White Sox outfield depth, but he won’t help fantasy teams.
Andrew Benintendi (calf) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Charlotte on Wednesday.
Benintendi has only been on the IL since May 7th, so he likely won’t need too many games before being back in the White Sox lineup. It’s entirely possible that he’s back up in Chicago by next week.
