  • White Sox's Korey Lee: Drives in two

    Lee went 2-for-4 with a double, two RBI and a run scored Saturday against the Phillies.

    Lee has earned two or three starts per week for most of the season and has shown some promise with the bat. His double on Saturday marked his third extra-base hit of the season across 35 plate appearances, and he also has four RBI and four runs scored. Lee hasn't looked out of place at the plate, as he's striking out at just a 17.1 percent clip with a .273 average.

  • White Sox's Korey Lee: Finding more playing time

    Lee went 0-for-3 with a strikeout Wednesday against the Guardians.

    The stat line wasn't notable for Lee, but he has now started three straight games for the White Sox after being in the lineup just twice in the team's first nine contests. One of those starts came at designated hitter, with two behind the plate. Mounting injuries to the White Sox's lineup could mean that Lee continues to get playing time, though both Eloy Jimenez (thigh) and Max Stassi (hip) are nearing potential returns.

  • White Sox's Korey Lee: Returns from Triple-A

    The White Sox recalled Lee from Triple-A Charlotte on Monday.

    Lee was just optioned last week but is back to take the injured Max Stassi's (hip) spot on the roster. The 25-year-old will serve as Martin Maldonado's backup behind the plate to begin the season.

  • White Sox's Korey Lee: Sent to minor-league camp

    The White Sox optioned Lee to Triple-A Charlotte on Wednesday.

    The 25-year-old hit well during spring training with a 1.280 OPS in 26 plate appearances, but veterans Martin Maldonado and Max Stassi will begin the campaign as Chicago's two big-league catchers. Lee struggled to a .077/.143/.138 slash line in his first 24 MLB games last season but should receive another look with the big club at some point in 2024.

  • White Sox's Korey Lee: May not make Opening Day roster

    The White Sox won't carry three catchers on the Opening Day roster, which could mean Lee begins the season in the minors, Scott Merkin of MLB.com reports.

    The White Sox added both Max Stassi and Martin Maldonado this offseason, neither of whom have minor-league options. While Lee is a more logical fit for the rebuilding roster, he does have one option remaining. Lee has only six plate appearances to this point in the spring, but he has homered once and collected one other hit.

  • White Sox's Korey Lee: On bench Wednesday

    Lee is not in the lineup Wednesday against the Diamondbacks.

    Lee's struggles continue in the majors. After being benched a few times, the catcher started in four consecutive games. However, the 25-year-old failed to record a hit, going 0-for-11 in that span. Carlos Perez gets the start at catcher and will bat sixth.

  • White Sox's Korey Lee: Sits amid slump

    Lee is not in the lineup for Monday's game against the Nationals, according to Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times.

    Lee did not record a hit over his last five games and owns just a .270 OPS at the big-league level this season, so he will get a day to clear his head after starting three of Chicago's last four contests. Yasmani Grandal will replace Lee behind the dish.

    Lee is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game versus the Royals.

  • White Sox's Korey Lee: Sitting Game 2

    Lee isn't in the White Sox's lineup for Game 2 of Tuesday's doubleheader with the Royals, Vinnie Duber of AllCHGO.com reports.

    Lee's offensive woes continued during the first game of Tuesday's action, as he went 0-for-3 to bring his batting average down to just .081. Yasmani Grandal will start behind the plate during the nightcap and bat fifth.

  • White Sox's Korey Lee: Takes seat Sunday

    Lee is out of the lineup Sunday against the Tigers.

  • White Sox's Korey Lee: Day off Friday

    Lee isn't in the White Sox's lineup Friday against the Tigers.

    Lee will get a day off Friday after breaking his cold streak and going 3-for-7 with a homer and three RBI across his last two games. Yasmani Grandal will fill in behind the dish and bat eighth.

  • White Sox's Korey Lee: Swats first career homer

    Lee went 2-for-4 with a three-run home run in Tuesday's 7-6 loss against Kansas City.

    Despite entering Tuesday's game hitless over his last eight appearances and sporting a 1-for-25 (.040) tally on the season, Lee delivered a three-run home run off Brady Singer for his first career long ball. Although Tuesday's performance was encouraging, fantasy managers shouldn't get their hopes up moving forward considering his previous struggles.

  • White Sox's Korey Lee: Resting Wednesday

    Lee is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Orioles.

    Lee will sit for Wednesday's matinee contest after he started behind the dish in both of the first two games of the series, going 0-for-6 with a walk. Yasmani Grandal will form a battery with starting pitcher Dylan Cease on Wednesday.

  • White Sox's Korey Lee: Heads to bench Sunday

    Lee is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Athletics.

    Lee will take a seat for the series finale after he started behind the plate in each of the past three games following his promotion from Triple-A Charlotte while going 1-for-10 with two walks a run. Though he'll give way to Yasmani Grandal on Sunday, Lee looks as though he's going to get a look as the White Sox's primary catcher down the stretch, at least until Seby Zavala (oblique) returns from the 10-day injured list.

  • White Sox's Korey Lee: Another start at catcher

    Lee is getting another start at catcher and batting ninth Friday versus the Athletics.

    Acquired from the Astros ahead of the Aug. 1 trade deadline in exchange for Kendall Graveman, Lee went 1-for-4 with a single and a run scored in his White Sox debut Thursday versus Oakland. The 25-year-old is expected to play regularly down the stretch as Chicago looks ahead to 2024 and beyond.

  • White Sox's Korey Lee: Promoted to big leagues

    Lee was recalled from Triple-A Charlotte on Thursday.

    Acquired from the Astros in the Kendall Graveman trade, Lee has batted .278/.325/.386 with five home runs and 13 stolen bases over 357 plate appearances at the Triple-A level in 2023. It's been a significant power drop-off after he slugged 25 homers in the minors last season, but Lee still has the potential to be an above-average hitting catcher who also offers some rare speed at the position. It's possible he receives regular at-bats down the stretch as the White Sox turn the page to 2024.
