Crochet, 23, is currently on Chicago's 15-day Injured List (retroactive to March 27) as he recovers from left elbow surgery.

In addition, White Sox players Liam Hendriks and Yoán Moncada will also continue their rehab assignments with the Knights at Truist Field. Hendriks is expected to pitch again for the Knights on Wednesday at Truist Field. Both players began their rehab assignments with Charlotte at Gwinnett on Friday, May 5.
Hendriks, 31, was placed on Chicago's 15-day injured list on March 30 (retroactive to March 27) as he was undergoing treatment for Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. On April 20, he announced that he is cancer free after completing chemotherapy on April 5. Last season, Hendriks posted a 4-4 record with 37 saves and a 2.81 ERA in 58 games pitched (57.2 innings pitched) with the White Sox. He is a three-time American League All-Star (2019, 2021-22).
Moncada 27, is currently on Chicago's 10-day injured list (since April 11) with lower back soreness. This season, Moncada is hitting .308 (12-for-39) with four runs scored, four doubles, two home runs and five RBI in nine games with the White Sox.
