Benintendi is overpaid relative to his five-year, $75 million contract, and he is still on the books in 2026 ($17.1 million) and 2027 ($15.1 million), but he has been a productive hitter, posting a 101 OPS+ with 11 home runs and 35 RBI. The White Sox are willing to pay down his salary to move him.

Kenedy Corona, a 25-year-old outfielder, was recalled by the Astros, filling the roster spot vacated by first baseman Christian Walker, who is on the paternity list.
