The Toronto Blue Jays made a roster move Monday, bringing in infielder Lenyn Sosa from the Chicago White Sox through a trade deal.
Toronto sent minor league outfielder Jordan Rich plus either cash considerations or an additional player to be determined later to Chicago in the transaction.
The Blue Jays made room on their 40-man roster by moving right-handed pitcher Shane Bieber to the 60-day injured list due to his ongoing elbow injury.
The 26-year-old Sosa has struggled at the plate this season, posting a .212 batting average with three runs batted in across 12 appearances for Chicago. Throughout his five-year major league career, all spent with the White Sox, Sosa has maintained a .245 batting average while contributing 37 home runs and 128 RBIs over 315 total games. His most productive season came last year when he achieved personal bests with 22 home runs and 75 RBIs.
Meanwhile, Rich is an 18-year-old prospect who Toronto selected in the 17th round of the 2025 draft from a Florida high school. The left-handed batter had been playing in the Arizona Complex League before the trade.
