ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — Tony La Russa exchanged texts with Chicago White Sox pitcher Lance Lynn and left fielder Eloy Jiménez, who are rehabbing with Triple-A Charlotte.
“They’re both encouraged about the way they’re going,” the Sox manager said Sunday morning at Tropicana Field.

Lynn made his second rehab start Friday, allowing three runs on four hits with two strikeouts and a walk in four innings against Memphis.
“Lance said he’s got five innings (scheduled) on Wednesday,” La Russa said. “Getting close.”

Jiménez started in left field Sunday and went 0-for-2. He’s slashing .200/.294/.200 (3-for-15) in five games with the Knights.
La Russa said Jiménez’s timeline calls for a few more games with Charlotte: “They don’t feel his legs are ready yet.”
Jiménez has been out since April 23, when he tore the hamstring tendon behind his right knee, requiring surgery. Lynn is working his way back from right knee surgery to repair a torn tendon.
“They’re on time so far,” La Russa said. “Sooner the better.”
