June 29, 2025 2:16 PM : Taylor will start in center field and bat eighth in Sunday's game against the Giants.
Analysis: Taylor had already started six straight games, but he should have a longer leash in the lineup after Luis Robert (hamstring) was placed on the injured list Sunday. The White Sox are likely to call up another outfielder to help fill in for Robert prior to Tuesday's game against the Dodgers. Taylor has been reasonably productive when called upon in June, slashing .255/.340/.447 with two home runs, one stolen base, eight runs and seven RBI in 22 games.
