Jun 19 2024Julks is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Astros. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Julks is on the bench after he started in each of the White Sox's last three games, with the latter two coming against left-handed pitchers. Though he's served as a near-everyday player for much of his time with the White Sox since getting called up from Triple-A Charlotte on May 17, Julks appears set to lose out on regularly playing time moving forward following the recent returns of Andrew Benintendi and Tommy Pham from the injured list.
Jun 13 2024Julks isn't in the White Sox's lineup for Thursday's game against Seattle. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Julks will take a seat Thursday after recording just one hit in 13 at-bats through the first three games of the series. His absence will allow Oscar Colas to start in right field and bat seventh.
Jun 10 2024Julks went 2-for-4 with a double and a stolen base Sunday against the Red Sox. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Julks has taken over as the White Sox's leadoff hitter across the last six games (five starts) and has gone 5-for-21 with a home run, a stolen base and two runs scored. He's been productive since joining the White Sox overall, maintaining a .366 wOBA and 139 wRC+ in 19 contests.
Jun 6 2024Julks isn't in the White Sox's lineup for Thursday's game against Boston. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Despite putting together an eight-game hitting streak, during which he's gone 11-for-33 with a homer and three RBI, Julks will sit down against Tanner Houck and the Red Sox on Thursday. Zach DeLoach will take over in left field while batting leadoff.
Jun 5 2024Julks went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a walk in Wednesday's 7-6 loss to the Cubs. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Julks gave the White Sox a hot start, homering on Jameson Taillon's first pitch of the game. During his eight-game hitting streak, Julks has gone 11-for-33 (.333) with four extra-base hits and three RBI. It looks like the 28-year-old outfielder could get a look at leadoff while Tommy Pham (ankle) is out, as that's where Julks has batted in the last two games -- against lefty Shota Imanaga on Tuesday and the right-handed Taillon on Wednesday. Julks has a .315/.393/.519 slash line with two homers, six RBI, six runs scored and two stolen bases over 61 plate appearances.
Jun 4 2024Julks went 1-for-5 with a double Tuesday against the Cubs. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Even with the return of Luis Robert, the White Sox's outfield remains shorthanded without Andrew Benintendi (Achilles) and Tommy Pham (ankle). As a result, Julks has started 10 consecutive games, during which he's gone 11-for-39 with three doubles, two RBI and three runs scored. Most notable on Tuesday was that Julks took over as the team's leadoff hitter in the absence of Pham.
May 26 2024Julks will start in left field and bat cleanup in Sunday's game against the Orioles. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Julks will pick up his third consecutive start and looks like he'll have a path to a regular spot in the lineup while Eloy Jimenez (hamstring) is on the injured list. Since being acquired from the Astros on May 15 and getting recalled from Triple-A two days later, Julks has gone 6-for-18 with a home run, two doubles, five walks, five RBI and two runs in seven games with Chicago.
May 22 2024Julks went 1-for-3 with two RBI, a walk and a stolen base Tuesday against the Blue Jays. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Julks was dealt to the White Sox on May 15 after being designated for assignment by the Astros and was recalled to the big-league club two days later. He's made three starts in five games since and gone 4-for-11 with a run scored, three RBI and two stolen bases. Julks could see a more consistent role moving forward if Eloy Jimenez (hamstring) is forced to miss time.
May 19 2024Julks went 2-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk Sunday against the Yankees. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Making his second start since being acquired from the Astros on May 15, Julks' solo homer in the second put the White Sox on the board and provided what turned out to be a short-lived lead for the Pale Hose. Julks later added a single, giving him three hits through two games in Chicago. Julks batted .245 with six homers and 15 steals over 323 plate appearances last season with the Astros and figures to see some action against lefties on the short side of a platoon, at least until Luis Robert (hip) returns to the lineup.
May 17 2024Julks was recalled from Triple-A Charlotte by the White Sox on Friday. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: After being traded to the White Sox from the Astros on Wednesday, Julks will now be called up just two days later. The 28-year-old recorded two hits and one run in seven plate appearances across two games with Chicago's Triple-A affiliate in Charlotte after being traded, and he slashed .266/.358/.444 with five home runs with Triple-A Sugar Land prior to the deal.
May 15 2024The White Sox acquired Julks from the Astros on Wednesday in exchange for right-hander Luis Rodriguez. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Julks had been designated for assignment by Houston but has now landed in a more favorable organization from a playing-time perspective. The 28-year-old will report to Triple-A Charlotte for now, but he should have a clearer bath to resurfacing in the majors in Chicago compared to Houston. Julks slashed .245/.297/.352 with six home runs and 15 stolen bases over 93 games with the Astros last season but has spent all of 2024 at Triple-A Sugar Land, batting .266/.358/.444 with five home runs.
May 10 2024Julks was designated for assignment by the Astros on Friday, Julia Morales of AT&T SportsNet Southwest reports. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Julks missed out on the Astros' Opening Day roster and has now lost his place on the 40-man roster. The 28-year-old slashed .266/.358/.444 with five home runs and 15 RBI in 31 games with Sugar Land, and he could remain with the affiliate if he passes through waivers unclaimed.
