White Sox Put Austin Hays on 10-Day IL, Call Up Dustin Harris

The moves signal a preference for short-term coverage over rushing top prospect Sam Antonacci.

Overview

  • The White Sox placed Austin Hays on the 10-day injured list Tuesday after tests showed a Grade 1 right hamstring strain, with a recovery window of two to four weeks.
  • Chicago filled the roster spot by selecting outfielder Dustin Harris from Triple-A Charlotte, and manager Will Venable said he could start against right-handed pitching or enter late for defense.
  • Top prospect Sam Antonacci stayed in Triple-A to log more outfield reps, with Venable stressing he needs game exposure to learn the position.
  • Utility player Brooks Baldwin had an internal brace procedure on his right elbow on April 1 and will miss the 2026 season.
  • Right-hander Mike Vasil moved to the 60-day injured list during his Tommy John recovery and is out for the year.
