White Sox's Luisangel Acuna: Idle Thursday
Acuna is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Rays.
Despite having the platoon advantage in his favor with southpaw Steven Matz on the mound for the Rays, Acuna will head to the bench for the series finale while Derek Hill picks up a start in center field. Since delivering his first multi-hit game of the season April 5, Acuna has gone 2-for-27 over his last eight contests, bringing his season average down to .170.

White Sox's Luisangel Acuna: Swipes fourth bag Sunday
Acuna went 2-for-4 with a run scored and a stolen base in Sunday's 3-0 win over the Blue Jays.
Acuna singled in each of his first two plate appearances, stealing a base in the second inning and scoring a run in the fourth. The 24-year-old has now hit safely in five straight games, going 4-for-4 on stolen-base attempts during that stretch. Overall, he's 7-for-26 with four runs scored to open the season, though all of his hits have been singles.

White Sox's Luisangel Acuna: Tallies third steal
Acuna went 1-for-3 with a stolen base Friday against the Blue Jays.
Acuna has alternated starts at shortstop and center field, but he has been in the lineup for six of Chicago's seven games this season. He has at least one hit in three consecutive appearances, and his stolen base Friday marked his third of the season. Acuna has yet to log an extra-base hit, so his counting stats are likely to remain limited, but he does appear to have a green light on the basepaths.

White Sox's Luisangel Acuna: Another start at shortstop
Acuna will start at shortstop and bat ninth in Wednesday's contest versus the Marlins.
It's the third start at shortstop already this season for Acuna, who has also made two starts in center field. Colson Montgomery is at third base for the White Sox on Wednesday. The 24-year-old Acuna is currently eligible only at second base on most fantasy platforms, but he's on track to pick up eligibility at shortstop and outfield soon. Acuna is 2-for-12 with a 1:1 BB:K and two stolen bases in his first four games this season.

White Sox's Luisangel Acuna: On bench Sunday
Acuna is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Brewers.
The 24-year-old picked up starts in center field and shortstop in the first two games of the season, going 1-for-7 at the dish. With former Mets teammate Brandon Sproat on the mound for Milwaukee, Acuna will cede his spot in the lineup Sunday to Tristan Peters, who will draw the start in center field and bat ninth.

White Sox's Luisangel Acuna: Back in action Monday
Acuna (eye) will start in center field and bat second in Monday's Cactus League contest versus the Giants.
Acuna had to depart a game last Wednesday and received stitches as a result of a laceration above his left eyebrow. He's healed now and ready to go. Acuna is 3-for-7 with one stolen base and a 0:2 BB:K in his first three contests this spring. Acuna is projected to open the 2026 campaign as the Opening Day center fielder for the White Sox.

White Sox's Luisangel Acuna: Leaves game due to laceration
Acuna was pulled from Wednesday's Cactus League game against the Reds due to a laceration above his left eyebrow, Scott Merkin of MLB.com reports.
Acuna was injured while stealing second base in the fourth inning. He will be evaluated to determine whether sutures are needed for the wound. Acuna singled in both of his plate appearances Wednesday before exiting. He is projected to be the Opening Day center fielder for the White Sox.

White Sox's Luisangel Acuna: Swing tweak leads to more power
Acuna has tweaked his swing in order to stay loaded in his back leg to create more consistent power, James Fegan of SoxMachine.com reports.
The swing tweak bore fruit in the Venezuelan Winter League, where Acuna slashed .282/.397/.542 with eight home runs in 39 games for Cardenales de Lara. The power display Acuna showed in winter ball came after he didn't hit a single homer in 193 plate appearances for the Mets in 2025, though he did steal 16 bases in 17 attempts. After being acquired by the White Sox last month in the Luis Robert trade, Acuna is the odds-on favorite to emerge as Chicago's everyday center fielder in 2026.

White Sox's Luisangel Acuna: Will get 'runway' from White Sox
White Sox general manager Chris Getz said Wednesday that Acuna will be given "runway to show off his talent, ability and ceiling," Brooke Fletcher of the Chicago Sports Network reports.
Acuna is the key piece acquired from the Mets in a trade that sent Luis Robert to New York. Getz's words suggest the White Sox plan to play Acuna every day in 2026, though it's unclear if it will be at one or a variety of positions. Acuna is primarily an infielder, but he's played lots of center field, as well, and it's possible he could slide into that spot as Robert's replacement. While he's slashed only .248/.299/.341 so far at the big-league level, Acuna is 16-for-18 in stolen-base attempts in limited time, and it's in the speed department where he could be a fantasy asset in 2026. Acuna will turn 24 in March.

White Sox's Luisangel Acuna: Dealt to White Sox
The Mets traded Acuna and Truman Pauley to the White Sox on Tuesday in exchange for Luis Robert, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.
Acuna opened 2025 as the Mets' starting second baseman but gradually saw his playing time disappear while slashing .234/.293/.274 over 193 plate appearances. Moving to the White Sox will help his chances of sticking around in the big leagues, though he'll still face some competition for playing time at the keystone from Chase Meidroth.

Mets' Luisangel Acuna: Rejoins big club
The Mets recalled Acuna from Triple-A Syracuse on Monday.
Acuna, who has seen the vast majority of his playing time at second base with the big club this season, is expected to occupy a bench role in September. The 23-year-old righty hitter hit .303 with zero home runs and eight steals in 28 games at Triple-A and has batted .239 with zero home runs and 12 steals in 175 plate appearances with the Mets in 2025.

Mets' Luisangel Acuna: Returns to Triple-A
The Mets optioned Acuna to Triple-A Syracuse on Monday.
Acuna was up with the big club for just one day, after the Mets designated him as their 27th man for Sunday's 7-3 win over the Mariners in the Little League Classic in Williamsport, Pa. He played second base in the final two innings of the game but didn't receive a plate appearance.
