ChiSox reinstate Tim Anderson, send Yoan Moncada to IL

The Chicago White Sox officially reinstated shortstop Tim Anderson from the injured list Monday and placed third baseman Yoan Moncada (hamstring) on the 10-day IL.

Anderson had been sidelined with a groin injury since May 29.

Moncada underwent further evaluation Monday after missing much of the weekend series at Houston with left-hamstring tightness. Moncada hasn’t played since leaving in the third inning of Friday’s 13-3 loss. His IL stint is retroactive to Saturday.

Anderson sustained a right groin strain in a game against the Chicago Cubs on May 29. He was injured while making a throw.

Anderson, who turns 29 on Thursday, is batting .356 with five homers and 19 RBIs in 40 games this season.

Moncada, 27, is scuffling with .179 average through 29 games. He’s a career .257 hitter with 73 home runs, but has just three HRs this season.
