  • White Sox's Robbie Grossman: Sitting for Game 1 of twin bill

    Grossman is out of the lineup for the first game of Wednesday's doubleheader with the Royals.

    Grossman had started in the corner outfield and occupied the leadoff spot in each of the previous eight games, reaching base at a .417 clip during that stretch while providing limited counting stats (zero home runs, one stolen base, three runs and one RBI). Given how poorly the White Sox offense as a whole has performed this season, Grossman has probably done enough to retain a near-everyday role, though he could sit more frequently than he had been over the past week after Chicago welcomed Eloy Jimenez back from the injured list Monday. Jimenez will serve as the White Sox's designated hitter in the opening game Wednesday, while Andrew Benintendi and Gavin Sheets start at the corner-outfield spots.

  • White Sox's Robbie Grossman: Performing well in leadoff role

    Grossman went 1-for-3 with two walks, two runs and a stolen base Wednesday against the Guardians.

    Grossman joined the White Sox on Friday after the team lost Eloy Jimenez (thigh). He's been in the lineup for five of six games since and occupied the leadoff spot on four occasions. While he's hitting only .167 in that span, Grossman has worked five free passes and scored three runs while also stealing a base. Given the injury to Luis Robert (hip), it's likely that Grossman will stick on the roster when Jimenez returns -- which could come as soon as Friday.

  • White Sox's Robbie Grossman: Will get extended look at leadoff

    Grossman will get an extended chance to serve as the White Sox's leadoff hitter, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

    Grossman had his contract selected by the club Friday and has started two of three games since. He led off for the first time Sunday and went 0-for-5, but after the game, manager Pedro Grifol suggested Grossman would get more looks at the top of the order. Andrew Benintendi has served as the leadoff hitter to this point, but he hit fifth Sunday and could stick in that position.

  • White Sox's Robbie Grossman: Contract selected

    The White Sox selected Grossman's contract from Triple-A Charlotte on Friday.

    The veteran outfielder signed with Chicago late in camp and will quickly join the big club after going 4-for-10 with two homers in three games at Triple-A. Grossman will take the place of Eloy Jimenez (groin), who was placed on the 10-day injured list Friday, although the White Sox will likely find another player to jettison from the 26-man roster once Jimenez is healthy.

  • White Sox's Robbie Grossman: Getting start Friday

    Grossman will start in right field and bat sixth in Friday's game versus the Royals.

    Grossman had his contract selected from Triple-A Charlotte earlier in the day and immediately finds himself thrown into the lineup. Most of his playing time figures to come against lefties given his career .808 OPS versus southpaws, but the 34-year-old is getting a shot Friday against righty Brady Singer.

  • White Sox's Robbie Grossman: May receive promotion soon

    White Sox general manager Chris Getz said Thursday that Grossman may join the MLB roster within the next week, Scott Merkin of MLB.com reports.

    Grossman has been on fire to start the season at Triple-A Charlotte. going 3-for-7 with two home runs and five RBI across Charlotte's first two games. There's no telling exactly when the 34-year-old will join the active roster, but Getz lauded Grossman as being an accomplished hitter in the majors and emphasized his ability to play multiple outfield positions, so a move could come sooner rather than later.

    Grossman was unable to land a contract this offseason until now, but he will join Chicago for the final days of spring training. The veteran outfielder played in 115 games for the Rangers last season and had a .238/.340/.394 slash line with 10 home runs. He'll likely begin the campaign with Triple-A Charlotte before potentially getting a look with the big club.

  • Rangers' Robbie Grossman: Sits again in ALDS Game 3

    Grossman remains out of the lineup Tuesday for Game 3 of the ALDS against the Orioles.

    Texas will ride the hot hand with Mitch Garver, who is again filling the DH role and batting third after going 2-for-6 with a grand slam and five total RBI in Sunday's 11-8, Game 2 victory over Baltimore. Grossman is 2-for-14 with eight strikeouts so far this postseason.

  • Rangers' Robbie Grossman: On bench Game 2

    Grossman is out of the lineup for Game 2 of the ALDS against the Orioles on Sunday.

    Grossman hit third as Texas' designated hitter in the first three games of the playoffs, but he'll take a seat Sunday after he went 2-for-14 with a double, a walk and eight strikeouts. Mitch Garver finished the regular season as the Rangers' primary DH and will fill that role in Game 2.

  • Rangers' Robbie Grossman: Starting at DH, batting third

    Grossman is starting at designated hitter and batting third in Tuesday's Game 1 of the AL Wild Card Series against the Rays.

    Grossman has always hit lefties better than righties and this season was no different, as he collected a .953 OPS against southpaws and just a .633 OPS versus right-handers. It makes him a curious choice for the DH spot versus and especially the three hole vs. righty Tyler Glasnow, but he's nonetheless manager Bruce Bochy's choice over Mitch Garver.

  • Rangers' Robbie Grossman: Starts Monday

    Grossman started in left field and went 0-for-1 with two walks in Monday's 5-1 win over the Angels.

    Grossman, who made his first start in nearly a week, was eventually replaced by Evan Carter when righty relievers came in to pitch. Grossman's plate appearances have ticked down since injured Rangers returned to the lineup last week. He's now the short side of a platoon in left field with Carter. Grossman's made eight plate appearances over the last seven games.

  • Rangers' Robbie Grossman: Playing time trending down

    Grossman is not in Wednesday's lineup against the Red Sox.

    With Adolis Garcia and Josh Jung back in the fold, Grossman's run as a semi-regular may be at an end. He should still get some starts at designated hitter and in left field, but Evan Carter looks poised to get the majority of left-field starts, especially against righties, and Mitch Garver is starting at designated hitter for the second time in the last three games.

  • Rangers' Robbie Grossman: Sitting Monday

    Grossman isn't in the starting lineup for Monday's game against Boston.

    Grossman was initially slated to man right field and bat sixth, but with Adolis Garcia officially back from a knee injury, he'll take a seat. Grossman and Evan Carter figure to fight for opportunities in left field with Garcia back in action.

  • Rangers' Robbie Grossman: Hot bat continues

  • Rangers' Robbie Grossman: Pops ninth homer

    Grossman went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run in Tuesday's victory over the Blue Jays.

    Grossman opened the game's scoring with his 375-foot, two-run homer off Hyun Jin Ryu in the fourth inning. The switch-hitting Grossman was drawing his fourth straight start in right field and looks to be manager Bruce Bochy's preferred replacement for Adolis Garcia (knee). Grossman is slashing .237/.328/.397 over 325 at-bats in 104 games this season.

  • Rangers' Robbie Grossman: Makes third straight start

    Grossman started in right field and went 2-for-3 with an RBI and a run scored in Monday's 10-4 win over the Blue Jays.

    Grossman made a third straight start in right field, as Texas manager Bruce Bochy navigates the waters without injured outfielder Adolis Garcia (knee). The Rangers have won all three games with Grossman, who is 3-for-8 with three walks, three RBI and three runs scored. Garcia is out until at least Monday, so there should be opportunities for Grossman in the near term.

    Grossman entered Wednesday's game for the injured Adolis Garcia (knee) and went 0-for-3 in a loss to Houston.

    Grossman went 0-for-7 during the three-game series against the Astros and is hitless in his last 10 at-bats. Garcia's exit put an exclamation point on an ugly series, during which Texas was swept by its division foe and outscored, 39-10. Grossman could get more plate appearances if Garcia's injury lingers. The Rangers are off Thursday before kicking off a three-game set Friday against the lowly Athletics.

    Grossman is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Astros.

    Grossman will pick up his third consecutive start in left field and has now been included in the lineup seven times in the past eight games. He's maintained a 1.034 OPS over his prior six starts and looks like he'll remain a priority in the Texas lineup over Travis Jankowski and J.P. Martinez while he's swinging a hot bat.
