Castillo will serve as the White Sox's designated hitter and will bat fifth Saturday against the Rays.

EDGE Analysis

Castillo has stuck in the lineup for each of the past four games as either a DH or catcher. He and James McCann are expected to fill either lineup spot for the majority of Chicago's games, which will likely result in AJ Reed moving into more of a bench role.

Castillo (oblique) was activated off the 10-day injured list Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Castillo will wind up missing exactly a month with a strained left oblique. He owned a poor .196/.289/.364 slash line prior to suffering the injury. He'll return to a backup role behind James McCann, pushing Zack Collins back to the minors.

EDGE Analysis

The White Sox sent prospect Zack Collins back to Triple-A Charlotte following Monday's loss to the Royals to make room on the roster for Castillo. Castillo went 5-for-21 with a home run and five RBI while on rehab.

EDGE Analysis

Chicago kicks off a road trip Monday in Kansas City, then moves on to Tampa for the rest of the week. Castillo is 4-for-14 since moving his rehab to Triple-A Charlotte and has 21 plate appearances overall while on rehab. His return likely spells the end to Zack Collins' stay in the majors.

Castillo (oblique) advanced his rehab assignment to Triple-A Charlotte on Thursday, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

Castillo has gone 1-for-7 in a pair of rehab games with Double-A Birmingham so far. He appears to be in line to return as Chicago's backup catcher soon after play resumes, possibly as early as Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Castillo was placed on the 10-day injured list June 18 due to a strained left oblique, and he's been cleared to embark on a rehab stint over the All-Star break. A timeline for his return remains murky, but he figures to need at least a handful of games in the minors to get back up to speed.

Castillo was placed on the 10-day injured list Tuesday with a strained left oblique.

EDGE Analysis

Castillo left Sunday's game against the Yankees with what was at the time referred to as lower-back tightness. The injury was evidently severe enough for him to miss at least 10 days, though the White Sox have yet to specify a timeline for his return. Zack Collins was called up to serve as the backup catcher behind James McCann.

Castillo was removed in the bottom of the fourth inning of Sunday's game against the Yankees after experiencing lower-back tightness.

EDGE Analysis

Castillo recorded a base hit in his lone at-bat before being pulled in favor of Yonder Alonso the next time his turn in the batting order came up. The White Sox plan to re-evaluate Castillo on Monday, at which time the team should have a better read on his status heading into its five-game week.

Castillo will serve as the White Sox's designated hitter and will bat seventh Sunday against the Yankees.

EDGE Analysis

Castillo has been the main beneficiary of manager Rick Renteria's recent decision to move Yonder Alonso into more of a part-time role. With Alonso no longer plugging up the DH spot, Castillo and fellow backstop James McCann have both been able to stick in the lineup on a fairly regularly basis. Castillo is only hitting .238 since returning from a concussion earlier this month, though he has smacked two home runs in seven games.

Castillo went 1-for-4 with a grand slam in Tuesday's 7-5 win over the Nationals.

EDGE Analysis

Castillo, who entered the night hitting .200 with runners in scoring position, jumped on a Patrick Corbin fastball with the bases loaded in the first inning. It was his fifth homer on the season and second in the last four games. The temptation to lean on James McCann, who is having a career year with the bat, has led to Castillo seeing fewer opportunities. However, with the struggling Yonder Alonso no longer the everyday designated hitter, White Sox manager Rick Renteria has used McCann as the DH twice in the last three games. If that arrangement holds, Castillo will get into the starting lineup more frequently.
