  • Pirates' Jacob Gonzalez: Added to active roster

    The Pirates activated Gonzalez to the major-league roster Saturday.

    Gonzalez had been at Triple-A when the White Sox traded him to Pittsburgh on Friday, but he'll officially return to the majors to begin his tenure with the Pirates. He won't be in the lineup for the final game of Saturday's doubleheader, though Injuries to Spencer Horwitz (hamstring) and Konnor Griffin (finger) could open up opportunities for Gonzalez to get starting reps with Pittsburgh.

  • Pirates' Jacob Gonzalez: Traded to Pirates

    The White Sox traded Gonzalez and Brandon Eisert to the Pirates on Friday in exchange for minor-league reliever Jaden Woods and the 34th pick in the 2026 First-Year Player Draft, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.

    After sending him down to Triple-A earlier in the day, the White Sox will now send Gonzalez out to Pittsburgh to help bolster the Pirates' infield depth. The 24-year-old has slashed .244/.323/.360 across 97 plate appearances in the majors since making his MLB debut May 31, but he boasts a 1.040 OPS at the Triple-A level. With Konnor Griffin (finger) expected to miss multiple months and Spencer Horwitz (hamstring) also on the IL, Gonzalez could get an opportunity to contribute right away for the big club.

  • White Sox's Jacob Gonzalez: Sent to Triple-A

    The White Sox optioned Gonzalez to Triple-A Charlotte on Friday.

    Gonzalez was recalled for his major-league debut last month after Munetaka Murakami (hamstring) was sent to the injured list. Across 97 trips to the plate, Gonzalez slashed .244/.323/.360 with two homers, 17 RBI, 11 runs scored and an 8:22 BB:K. With Murakami back from the IL, Gonzalez will head back to Charlotte.

  • White Sox's Jacob Gonzalez: Sitting against southpaw

    Gonzalez is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Red Sox.

  • White Sox's Jacob Gonzalez: Three more RBI in Tuesday's win

    Gonzalez went 3-for-5 with two doubles, a run scored and three RBI in Tuesday's 9-3 win over the Orioles.

    The rookie infielder drove in three runs for a second straight game as he enjoys his trip to Baltimore, and Gonzalez has erupted for 12 total RBI in the last five contests. Since making his big-league debut May 31, Gonzalez has delivered a .260/.341/.397 slash line with two homers, 11 runs and 17 RBI in 24 games.

  • White Sox's Jacob Gonzalez: Plates three in win

    Gonzalez went 2-for-4 with a double, three RBI and two runs scored in Monday's 8-2 win over Baltimore.

    The White Sox fell into an early 1-0 hole, but Gonzalez got his team on the board in the top of the third with an RBI double. He would strike again in the ninth to tack on a pair of insurance runs, doing so with a single to center field. Gonzalez has delivered key run production for his club lately, tallying nine RBI over his last four games. The 24-year-old should continue to see his name in the starting nine while swinging a hot bat, at least until Munetaka Murakami (hamstring) is cleared to return from the 10-day injured list.

  • White Sox's Jacob Gonzalez: Career-best performance in win

    Gonzalez went 3-for-4 with a home run, a double, a walk, five RBI and three runs scored in Friday's 22-1 win over the Royals.

    Gonzalez launched a three-run homer in the third inning before adding a two-run single in the seventh, falling a triple shy of the cycle in the first three-hit effort of his career. The rookie has now logged back-to-back multi-hit games after entering Wednesday's contest mired in a 0-for-25 slump over his previous 10 contests. Through his first 65 major-league plate appearances, Gonzalez is slashing .228/.323/.351 with two home runs, 10 RBI and eight runs scored.

  • White Sox's Jacob Gonzalez: Exiting starting nine

    Gonzalez is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Guardians.

    Gonzalez will head to the bench while the White Sox go with Miguel Vargas and Colson Montgomery as their starters in the corner infield Monday. Since being called up from Triple-A Charlotte on May 30, the left-handed-hitting Gonzalez has mostly been spared from matchups with left-handed pitching but has still struggled to a .167/.273/.229 slash line over 55 plate appearances. Gonzalez will likely be headed back to Charlotte once Munetaka Murakami (hamstring) is ready to return from the injured list.

  • White Sox's Jacob Gonzalez: Sitting out versus lefty

    Gonzalez is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's game versus the Yankees.

  • White Sox's Jacob Gonzalez: First RBI of career

    Gonzalez went 2-for-4 with two RBI and a walk Wednesday against the Twins.

    Gonzalez drew his fourth straight start at first base in the absence of Munetaka Murakami (hamstring) and collected his first career RBI with a two-run single in the first inning. Gonzalez now has at least one hit in three of his first four appearances in the majors. Prior to his promotion, the 23-year-old blasted 18 home runs across 238 plate appearances with Triple-A Charlotte, though he had little track record of power throughout the rest of his minor-league career.
