De Aza is out of the lineup Thursday against the Mariners. De Aza rejoined the lineup Wednesday after dealing with the a knee issue but is out of it again Thursday, likely due to the same injury. Dayan Viciedo will slide over and play left field for the White Sox while Moises Sierra is in the lineup in right and Leury Garcia is in center field.

De Aza (knee) is back in the lineup Wednesday against the Rangers, Colleen Kane of the Chicago Tribune reports. De Aza exited Monday's game with the knee injury and missed Tuesday's contest as a result. He will test out the injury Wednesday, as he is playing left field and batting eighth against the Rangers.

De Aza (knee) isn't in the lineup Tuesday versus the Rangers, Dan Hayes of CSN Chicago reports. Removed from Monday's game after fouling a ball off his left knee, De Aza should be considered day-to-day. In his place, Dayan Viciedo is covering left field and batting fifth in the order.

De Aza exited Monday's game after fouling a ball off his left knee in the sixth inning, Colleen Kane of the Chicago Tribune reports. De Aza was replaced in the game by Moises Sierra. It's not clear how long De Aza will be out, but he was diagnosed with only a bruise, so he should not miss much time if he misses any at all.

Alejandro De Aza went 0-for-3 on Wednesday and is in a 2-for-28 slump. De Aza homered twice on Opening Day and three times in opening series against the Twins, but he has just one homer since, that coming back on April 28. He's struggled to hit for average all along, and he's currently at .179 for the season. The White Sox don't have much in the way of outfield alternatives, so they'll keep running him out there against righties for now. He should snap out of it at some point.

Alejandro De Aza hit his fourth homer of the year Monday in the win over the Rays. It was his fourth homer of the year, but his first in 25 days; the previous three all came in the season-opening series against the Twins. De Aza has struggled mightily since those first few days, and if not for Avisail Garcia's injury, he'd probably find himself on the bench most of the time right now. As is, he'll continue to start in left field against most righties.

Alejandro De Aza went 0-for-3 with a walk as the White Sox defeated the Red Sox on Tuesday. De Aza walked and was caught stealing leading off the bottom of the ninth inning, but the White Sox walked off winners anyway. After a white-hot spring, De Aza has been cold to start the season, hitting just .167 with the conclusion of Tuesday's action. The caught stealing was only his first attempted steal of the season, after swiping 20 bags last year.

Alejandro De Aza popped his third homer in three games Thursday against the Twins. The White Sox thought they were picking De Aza's on-base percentage and defense over Dayan Viciedo's power in left field to start the season. Imagine their surprise that De Aza has three homers already. He'll start against right-handers for the foreseeable future.

Alejandro De Aza clubbed a pair of home runs in a 5-3 win over the Twins on Opening Day. De Aza smacked a two-run shot in the second inning and later added a solo homer in the sixth. This was the first multi-homer game of his career. De Aza is set to share playing time with Dayan Viciedo in left field, but a shot start could give him the edge. The good news is that he should get more playing time than Viciedo even if the White Sox go with a straight platoon.

Alejandro De Aza doubled and homered in his only two at-bats as the White Sox fell to the Cubs 4-3 on Thursday. De Aza went back-to-back with Adam Dunn in the ninth inning against Wesley Wright, a last-ditch effort to bring the White Sox back into the game. The blast was De Aza's second of the spring and he is now hitting .383. He has certainly played his way into consideration for more playing time, and may take some away from Dayan Viciedo in left field.
