Player Outlook
Paul DeJong struggled mightily in 2023 while bouncing between three organization, hitting just .207 with a .612 OPS in 400 plate appearances with the Cardinals, Blue Jays and Giants. The veteran shortstop signed a one-year deal with the White Sox in November where he'll battle Nicky Lopez and Braden Shewmake for the starting role. The bat seems to be waning each year for DeJong, but he remains a solid defensive shortstop who ultimately may just be keeping the spot warm for top prospect Colson Montgomery's inevitable callup in 2024.

  • White Sox's Paul DeJong: Getting maintenance day

    Rotowire
    DeJong is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Astros. He'll receive a breather for the day game after a night game, opening up a turn at shortstop for Nicky Lopez. DeJong had started each of the White Sox's previous 21 games and was one of the team's most productive hitters over that stretch, batting .235 with 11 extra-base hits (seven home runs, four doubles), 12 RBI and 10 runs.

  • White Sox's Paul DeJong: Homer, two hits in win

    Rotowire
    DeJong went 2-for-5 with a solo home run in Saturday's win over the Diamondbacks. DeJong put the White Sox ahead with a leadoff home run in the top of the fourth and added a single in the following frame, giving him his second straight multi-hit game. The shortstop is now up to 14 home runs on the campaign, with six of them coming this month and four coming over his last eight games. DeJong has also recorded multiple hits in six of his last nine contests.

  • White Sox's Paul DeJong: Clubs homer Tuesday

    Rotowire
    DeJong went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and an additional run scored in Tuesday's 4-3 loss to the Mariners. DeJong is up to 13 homers on the year, six of which he's hit over his last 11 contests. He went back-to-back with Andrew Vaughn in the third inning of Tuesday's contest, though that's where the White Sox's scoring ended. DeJong is up to a .240/.290/.490 slash line with 28 RBI, 28 runs scored, two stolen bases and 11 doubles over 62 contests while seeing a starting role at shortstop.

  • White Sox's Paul DeJong: Keeps mashing

    Rotowire
    DeJong went 2-for-3 with a double and a three-run home run during Sunday's 6-4 loss to the Red Sox in 10 innings. DeJong has been on a tear across the White Sox's last three series, launching five homers in nine games, and Sunday's multi-hit performance was his fourth during that stretch. The veteran shortstop is amidst a bit of a career revival during his first season in Chicago, slashing .238/.287/.482 -- each mark of which would be his best since 2020.

  • White Sox's Paul DeJong: Four homers in eight starts

    Rotowire
    DeJong went 2-for-4 with a solo home run Saturday against the Red Sox. DeJong provided some insurance with a home run in the seventh inning, his 11th of the season and fourth in his last eight starts. He has only seven total hits in that span, illustrating his dependence on the long ball to provide any fantasy value. Overall, DeJong is hitting .234/284/.463 across 204 plate appearances on the campaign.

  • White Sox's Paul DeJong: Pops 10th homer

    Rotowire
    DeJong went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 7-6 loss to the Cubs. DeJong is hitting for power with three homers over his last five contests, though he's gone a modest 4-for-18 in that span. The shortstop is up to 10 long balls this season, just four shy of matching his total from 112 contests in 2023. DeJong has added a .226/.276/.446 slash line, 21 RBI, 23 runs scored and two stolen bases over 56 games. He's not a particularly well-rounded hitter, but he's done enough to maintain a starting job.

  • White Sox's Paul DeJong: Heating back up

    Rotowire
    DeJong went 1-for-4 with a solo home run and two RBI on Sunday against the Brewers. DeJong began the day with a sacrifice fly in the first inning and popped a leadoff homer three frames later. He went deep four times in a 12-game span through mid-May and has now gone yard twice in the last three games. DeJong has a 34.2 percent strikeout rate across 184 plate appearances this season, which will prevent consistent production, but he's hit .245 with a .766 OPS and six home runs since the start of May.

  • White Sox's Paul DeJong: Two extra-base hits

    Rotowire
    DeJong went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a double Friday against the Brewers. DeJong led off the third inning with a solo home run, his eighth long ball of the season and first since May 20. In the 10 games since, he's hit just .182 with a 35.1 percent strikeout rate. Nevertheless, DeJong is locked into a near everyday role at shortstop and has maintained .202 ISO with a 103 wRC+ across 176 plate appearances on the campaign.

  • White Sox's Paul DeJong: Gets rest Sunday

    Rotowire
    DeJong is out of the lineup for Sunday's series finale against the Orioles. DeJong will take a seat Sunday after playing in the first three games of the series, going 2-for-10 with two RBI while striking out five times. Zach Remillard will start at shortstop Sunday and bat eighth against Orioles right-hander Kyle Bradish.

  • White Sox's Paul DeJong: Homers, steals base in loss

    DeJong went 3-for-4 with a homer, a stolen base, two RBI and two runs scored in Monday's loss to Toronto. DeJong cracked his seventh home run of the season in the fourth inning, hitting it 402 feet to center. The Chicago shortstop has enjoyed a hot start to May, hitting .288 (17-for-59) with four homers, 12 runs scored and eight RBI this month. Overall, DeJong is slashing .246/.295/.462 in 139 plate appearances while playing shortstop every day for the White Sox.

  • White Sox's Paul DeJong: Idle for first game

    Rotowire
    DeJong is out of the lineup for the first game of a doubleheader against the Nationals on Tuesday. The 30-year-old will give way to Braden Shewmake at shortstop. DeJong will likely re-enter the lineup for the nightcap with a southpaw (Mitchell Parker) set to start for the Nationals.

  • White Sox's Paul DeJong: Goes deep again Wednesday

    Rotowire
    DeJong went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run and an additional run in Wednesday's 4-1 victory versus the Rays. DeJong accounted for half of Chicago's runs with his two-run blast to left field in the fifth inning. It was the second straight contest with a long ball for the veteran shortstop following a 16-game homerless drought. DeJong has multiple hits in three of his past four games and has gone 6-for-15 with four RBI, five runs and four extra-base hits over that stretch.

  • White Sox's Paul DeJong: Pops fourth homer

    Rotowire
    DeJong went 2-for-3 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 5-1 loss to the Rays. The veteran shortstop snapped a 16-game homer drought with his seventh-inning shot off Zach Eflin, but it was all the offense the White Sox could muster. DeJong had a brutal start to the season, but has begun to provide some consistent production over the last couple weeks, batting .263 (10-for-38) over his last 11 contests with three doubles, four RBI and six runs, but his 1:13 BB:K over that stretch highlights how quickly even that moderate level of success could evaporate. On the season, DeJong is slashing .228/.276/.435 with four homers and eight RBI.

  • White Sox's Paul DeJong: Out of Sunday's lineup

    Rotowire
    DeJong is not in the lineup for Sunday's game versus Tampa Bay. DeJong started the previous six contests but will take a seat Sunday after he went 3-for-22 with 11 strikeouts during that stretch. Braden Shewmake will start at shortstop and bat ninth.

  • White Sox's Paul DeJong: Hitting sixth in return to lineup

    Rotowire
    DeJong (arm) will start at shortstop and bat sixth in Monday's game against the Twins. DeJong went unused in Sunday's 8-2 loss to the Phillies after being hit in the left arm by a pitch a day earlier, but his absence for the series finale in Philadelphia might have been precautionary more than anything. He'll take back his usual spot at shortstop Monday while Nicky Lopez shifts over to second base.

  • White Sox's Paul DeJong: Not in Sunday's lineup

    Rotowire
    DeJong is out of the lineup for Sunday's game at Philadelphia. DeJong exited Saturday's contest after being hit by a pitch in the left arm and will be held out of the lineup for at least one game. Nicky Lopez will take over at shortstop for Sunday's series finale.

  • White Sox's Paul DeJong: Leaves game following HBP

    Rotowire
    DeJong was lifted from Saturday's game against the Phillies after being hit on the left arm by a pitch, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times reports. DeJong initially stayed in the game after being struck by a Zack Wheeler offering in the top of the fifth inning, but he was eventually removed prior to the bottom of the sixth. He is likely being sent for tests, with more information on his condition possibly available after the contest.

  • White Sox's Paul DeJong: Five hits in twin bill

    Rotowire
    DeJong went 5-for-6 with a walk, a double and a two-run homer across both games of Wednesday's doubleheader against the Royals. The veteran shortstop provided Chicago's only runs in Game 1 with a two-run home run during the second inning, and he collected two more singles in the nightcap. DeJong entered the day with a .618 OPS through 13 games this season, but the five-hit barrage raised his season slash line to .275/.293/.600.

  • White Sox's Paul DeJong: Losing work to Shewmake

    Rotowire
    DeJong is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Guardians. On the bench for the third time in four games, DeJong seems to have fallen into a part-time or backup role in the wake of his slow start to the season. Through 24 plate appearances, DeJong is slashing .167/.167/.458 with 13 strikeouts. Braden Shewmake will get another turn in the middle infield while DeJong is out of the lineup.

    Rotowire
    DeJong is absent from the lineup for Monday's game versus the Guardians, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times reports. DeJong and Braden Shewmake have been sharing shortstop for the White Sox this season. It will be Shewmake at short in this one for the second straight contest.
