White Sox Say Eloy Jiménez Has Right Hamstring Strain, Out 6-8 Weeks

The White Sox announced Sunday outfielder Eloy Jiménez will miss at least 6-8 weeks with a right hamstring strain he suffered on Saturday.

“After returning to Chicago, Eloy will undergo further evaluation by White Sox team physicians at Rush and a treatment plan will be put into place,” the team said in a statement.

Chicago also said it will have more information about the injury on Tuesday.

Jiménez’s injury came while running to first base vs. Minnesota during Saturday’s game. After passing the bag, he went to the ground and immediately grabbed his right leg. He had to be carted off the field while exiting the game.
