Rest-of-Season Projections
Signed a one-year contract with the White Sox in May of 2025.
Out eight months after ACL surgery
Elko is expected to be sidelined for eight months following surgery Tuesday to repair a torn ACL in his right knee, Scott Merkin of MLB.com reports.
Analysis
Elko was diagnosed with a right knee sprain July 11 and was sidelined for three-plus weeks. He did not miss any additional time after that, but a recent exam evidently revealed the need for surgery. With Elko slated to be out until around midseason of next year, he'll likely be placed on the 60-day injured list during spring training.
