PHOENIX — Removed from the White Sox’ Cactus League game against the Diamondbacks on Monday because of cramping in his right calf, Eloy Jimenez returned to work Tuesday at the Sox’ spring training complex.
The Sox’ slugger was not scheduled to play against the Brewers Tuesday but will play in one of the Sox’ split-squad games Wednesday against the Royals and Rangers.
“He’s fine,” manager Pedro Grifol said Tuesday. “He was scheduled to be off today. He’ll play tomorrow. But it’s nothing.”
Jimenez ran Tuesday morning, went through exercises and “feels good,” Grifol said.
Jimenez ran out a ground ball in the second inning, and experienced cramping after he sat down on the bench. After the inning, he headed for the trainer’s room with trainer James Kruk.
“It wasn’t even running,” Grifol said. “He felt great all day. He was just sitting down and it kind of cramped up a little bit or something but it was just a non-issue.”
Also, utility man Leury Garcia is expected to play Wednesday after being sidelined with a sore left hand. Garcia has not appeared in a game since March 14.
