White Sox activate Eloy Jimenez, place Yoan Moncada on IL

CHICAGO -- The Chicago White Sox activated designated hitter Eloy Jimenez (hamstring) from the injured list on Friday while placing third baseman Yoan Moncada on it with a back ailment, the team announced before its game against the Baltimore Orioles.

Moncada, 27, was off to a fast start after playing in the WBC this spring. He was 12 for 39 with two home runs and four doubles before tweaking his back recently. Like Jimenez, Moncada has appeared on the injured list several times over the past few seasons but the team doesn't view this injury as a serious one.
