White Sox's Danny Mendick: Lands on injured list

The White Sox placed Mendick on the 10-day injured list Saturday with lower-back tightness, retroactive to Thursday.

Mendick's back issues caused him to be scratched from the lineup prior to Friday's game, and they will now officially cost him more than a week as he heads to the IL. Bryan Ramos was recalled from Double-A Birmingham in a corresponding move and could receive the majority of reps at third base while Mendick is sidelined.
