Chicago White Sox Call Up Infielder Tanner Murray for MLB Debut in Sweep Bid Against Toronto Blue Jays
The Chicago White Sox are aiming to complete a sweep of the Toronto Blue Jays in their upcoming game, showcasing their resilience in recent matchups. Prior to the game, outfielder Everson Pereira was placed on the 10-day injured list due to a left ankle sprain, prompting the call-up of infielder Tanner Murray from Triple-A. Despite not being a top prospect, Murray has had a strong start to the season, boasting a .304 batting average with a 1.075 OPS, two home runs, and seven RBI in six games. He will make his MLB debut in Sunday's game, batting seventh and playing shortstop in place of Colson Montgomery, who is resting. Acquired in a trade with the Tampa Bay Rays alongside Pereira, Murray is expected to provide additional power and contact to the lineup, having set career highs in home runs and doubles in previous seasons.
