The Chicago White Sox are set to activate Eloy Jimenez within the next day or two.

Jimenez, 25, has been out since injuring his hamstring while running to first base in late April. The White Sox will take it slow with his return, deploying him both in left field and as the designated hitter.

"He did enough in the minor leagues to play in the outfield," Tony La Russa said. "We'll go day-to-day. I don't know how realistic it is to play him three straight days in the outfield."
